Join master sculptor Josh Guge for this 4 day seminar on carving and painting a Brown Pelican! These demonstration videos were made during a class he taught at his studio in Elgin. The seminar includes 50 demonstration videos ranging from 5 to 25 minutes in length. The videos are loaded with important information you need to learn how to take a block of wood and turn it into a piece of art!
Josh covers every detail in the process from roughing out the basic shape of the bird, to adding intricate textures details. He also demonstrates the entire painting process. Also, unique to this carving, Josh carves and details the Pelicans feet into the same block of wood. The habitat that the Pelican perches on is also covered in the seminar! All components of the bird and habitat are carved from a single piece of Tupelo.
Josh is known for simplifying this complex process and helping students of all skill levels reach their personal goals.
