I taught a Cottonwood Bark Spirit Face Class Oct. 23 & 24, 2010. We stayed very busy as none of the students had ever carved like this before. So busy we didn't make any pictures.

The local carving club president (Dave Sikkelee) stopped by and made these photos during the class.

There were five students, they had all done small caricatures and relief carving with palm gouges. By Sunday evening I was exhausted. We had a great time. The club is trying to get me to schedule another class in January.

Looks like a lot of fun John! I would like to see one that was finished in this class! Great work! Glad you posted the pictures!

Oh boy - bark carving! I'm just starting to use cottonwood and from the looks of the carved face it looks like I could have learned some things there.

I'd love to see more of your work!

Now that looks like a good time! Any pictures of finished projects?
