Default Wayne Shinlever class
Wayne Shinlever will be teaching a santa carving class at Woodcraft in Knoxville, Tn the weekend after Thanksgiving. I thought I would let everyone know in case you are looking for something to do besides watch football after your bellies are full. Anyone taken a class from Wayne? I met him at dollywood and he seems to be a very nice man, and from what I have seen from his work he is a great carver. I'm hoping to improve my santa carving skills by taking his class. Hope some others can attend!

Blake

Actually, y'all (Mark and Blake) can talk to him personally again - he'll be in Hickory at the Catawba Valley (Hickory) show next weekend. He will give a seminar and be a judge for the caricature category along with Tom Wolfe.

Wayne also won quite a few awards at the CCA event in Dollywood. I believe the same carving that won the WCI Santa Carving Contest was one of the big winners (or one very similar).

Your right Mitchell it is the same piece he won the Woodcraft/WCI Santa contest with.And he won 2nd best of show in the CCA with the same piece,and also won 3rd best of show with another piece.He did tell me he would be stepping in for Gary Falin at Hickory this year due to a conflict on Gary's part.

Michael,

You can go to www.woodcraft.com and look for the Knoxville, TN location. It is listed in their "class" section and is the weekend after thanksgiving. I had a chance to talk to Wayne in Dollywood and he seemed like a great guy, and he sure is a great teacher! Let me know if you decide to come down and take it. I can give you some pointers about the area if you need them!

Blake
