DVD – Harley Refsal Figure Carving Scandinavian Style

Description

Figure Carving Scandinavian Style – DVD
Author: Harley Refsal

Through the power of close-up lenses, watch Harley transform a rough blank of basswood into the lifelike figure of Karl Oskar, the younger brother of Harley’s popular figure ‘Oskar’. In this first-ever video on ‘flat plane carving’, Harley clearly explains every step of the process. Using only a single sharp knife and making polished cuts – he demonstrates the art of giving expression to every carved facet. If you are a master, a beginner, or interested in Scandinavian art – this video offers a lifetime of learning and inspiration. It’s like having a class with Harley in your own home anytime you wish!
