What is the workshop about

In this wood carving workshop, you’ll learn the foundational techniques needed to start your carving journey — and gain the confidence to continue carving on your own.
 
Through a guided hands-on project featuring elements of a lotus pond — including pre-cut shapes like lotus blooms, leaves, and textured water — you'll explore skills that can be applied to both shaped pieces and plain blocks of wood for relief carving.

Here’s what you’ll learn:
 
- How to use basic carving tools like U-gouges, V-gouges, and chisels effectively and safely Understanding wood grain direction — and how to work with it, not against it

- Techniques for texturing, shaping, and creating depth in wood

- How to sharpen and care for your tools to keep them carving-ready Finishing techniques to bring out the detail and beauty of your work

- How to approach your own future carving projects and use these techniques on different projects. 

This is a fully interactive workshop with live feedback — you'll get personalized guidance throughout. Participants share work-in-progress photos via WhatsApp, where individual instructions and suggestions are provided to support your progress every step of the way. Whether you're just curious or ready to take on a new creative hobby, this workshop will equip you with essential carving skills you can build on for years to come. 

Note: Even though we are carving a Lotus Pond, the skills learnt in this session are replicable for other designs
