Default Report on our class!

One of our carvers and also a member here on the board hosted a 2 day class this past weekend in Great Bend, Ks.

This year's featured teacher was Millard Harrell from Emporia, Ks. In 2 days, Millard managed to teach 11 carvers his method for carving Santa ornaments complete through the painting and finishing process.

Millard has a great teaching style and the class was extremely informative. I would recommend him highly to anyone who has the chance to take instruction from him.

Attached is a picture of my finished Santa!

Thanks Millard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was great fun teaching the seminar for the Golden Belt Woodcarver in Great Bend, Kansas. You can tell that I was enjoying myself with this bunch of carvers by the picture attached! The rest of the pictures taken at this fun weekend event can be viewed on my blog.

Scott, you are certainly a good student, that's an excellent carving you've done and you certainly paid attention to what you were shpwn by a great instructor. You are very fortunate you had that oportunity. None of the greats ever come to Ontario, at least not that I know of.
