I have always been fascinated with wood carving and wishing I could do it but never did.....Years ago I went to Dollywood and was Fascinated with a wood carver there and I watched him for awhile then I asked him, How do you do that and he simply said, Just take away the wood that don't belong.....Now at age 66 I have been carving for a year and Yep that is how it is done.....I just wonder if it was him at Dollywood.....
