| | Pete LeClair Folks,
Just spent the last three days in a seminar conducted by CCA member Pete LeClair. Attached are a few photos of the caricature the class worked on and a picture of Pete himself (in the red hat). Not only is Pete a patient and great carver, he works hard to ensure that no one falls behind and that everyone went home with a finished piece!
If you have the opportunity to take a class from him, I'd recommend you do! |

| | Re: Pete LeClair Nice work on the carvings Gary. Pete taught down here a couple months ago and like you said, he is very thorough with his instructions. It's all about technique........ |
