hey mark. nice job. ive been doing wood too, for the past 15 years or so. like you, my own technics, hand tools mostly, and I wait for the next typhoon so I can go collect my tree stumps.
I enjoyed your video. I would like to try this myself. My question is: do I need to fully dry out the wood before I start or can I carve it green and then dry it slowly? What do use to finish the wood? Txs. Chris........
I just ran across this video and noticed your comment. Hopefully you have indulged in this satisfying process. I have done quite a lot of sculptures in the past using many techniques and tools. It is my preference to start out with green wood and take the form to a rough state because it is much easier to remove the unwanted wood. Then let the drying process begin. This result in less checking and splitting or at least not as pronounced than letting the initial raw form dry before attacking. facebook.com/woodworksbygarry/
Quite and amazing sculptor and a pleasure to see his work, certainly opens your eyes how these artists work. I would appreciate a comments or comments on Carlos Baez Barruetos work, apologies for the poor talk over from me please type in ´wood sculpture naked woman - carlos baez barrueto. I look forward to any comments and please pass on my comments to Mark Irwin. Ronald
Very inspiring.
I use beech, ash, oak or elm. Most from knotty pieces.
I love your organic shapes....😊
Mark is amazing! We were glad to share his talent with everyone. Thanks for watching!
Your work is very beautiful - you capture the essence of each piece of wood!
I am inspired to get back to wood carving again. Thanks for your awesome video of you and your works. - Jacob

How do you get the bugs out of the wood ?
