Carving for Kids

Hi folks, After 18 years of doing carving workshops my back has decided it's time for me to retire. I've enjoyed working with the thousands of students that have participated in the workshops over the years and have been rewarded many times over with enthusiastic comments, smiles, handmade cards and the occasional hug by the kids I've worked with. The "Carving for Kids" workshops have proven to be extremely popular and I'm pleased to be able to announce that my assistant Erin Larsen is taking over the reins and the workshops will continue! In the four years that Erin has been working by my side she has shown herself to be an accomplished and passionate instructor. To book a workshop for your class or for more information you can contact Erin at 778 896-3746 or email
[email protected]. Just a reminder, the carving workshops are also available for birthdays, youth groups, children's festivals and more!”

A few examples of the masterpieces my advanced students have created

It's been a while since I posted but here's a slideshow of some of the young Artists showing off their masterpieces.

Carving for Kids I finished another series of spring break carving camps and put together this slide show of some of the young Artists at work.

Finished up the last carving camp of the summer today! I had a lot of fun this summer working with a bunch of enthusiastic young people and I'm already looking forward to doing it all again in the new school year.

A collection of photos of students work......in progress and finished masterpieces.

Started the last carving camp of the summer today with 13 budding Artists, seven of them repeat students. I'll post photos throughout the week of their progress.

Finished up the first of two carving camps I'm doing this summer. I was contracted to do four camps but it seems someone neglected to include the "Carving for Kids" camps in the Delta Cont. Ed. brochure. The first camp was a lot of fun with 8 enthusiastic and talented young Artists, the fourth camp for half of them!

I'm running 4 one week long "Carving for Kids" programs this summer for Delta Cont. Ed. Be sure to sign up early and as always parents/grandparents are encouraged to join in on the fun!

I did some carving workshops with close to 100 students at the Walnut Rd Elementary Aboriginal Day celebration on May 15th and a photographer from the Surrey Leader showed up.
