Instructor Bill Pedersen will also cover how to care for your knives, other types of woodcarving tools and their uses, and how to finish your pieces with paint or other mediums after the carving is complete. Finally, you’ll be introduced to woodcarving resources to continue your journey in this wonderful art form.
