Relief Carving


This two-day course will suit carvers with some previous experience.

It’s focus is high relief carving of acanthus foliage. This is what you usually see embellishing antique furniture and historic buildings. It has been the popular style of decoration from antiquity until the present day.

Students will create a high relief sampler panel set against a plain background. The skills and techniques learned are applicable to all kinds of relief work.

As this work requires a range of tools, students should bring their own tools, although the school has a limited range available.
