How and when I got started woodcarving
I started carving(trying too) when my youngest was in the 3rd grade working on a school project. THE NORTHWEST INDIANS..so I started carving sticks I picked up along the river that I called beaver wood, since the beavers had remove all the bark.. and one thing lead to another...that was in 1971

I enjoy these types of woodcarving
I started out doing NW Indian stuff..then tried caricature carving, since I had always done cartoons all my life. Tried all most all...except CHIP CARVING never was good at math..birds, ducks,
signs totems and just plain whittling. I taught for many years and then retired from the active roll and spend time carving for my own enjoyment..I have my end of the shop and the wife has her end.

I enjoy carving these things
Caricature carving is my first choice.. still do a decoy once a year.

I'd like to learn more about
lEARN something every day... and I do..I always said if you were not learning..."YOU WERE DEAD" so my advice is to KEEP LEARNING.
OH... one other thing......HOW TO GROW HAIR!!!

I attend these woodcarving clubs
Do not attend many club meetings any more..but am a member of many..to name a few, SSC, Chicago, Texas Carvers Guild,NW Carvers,Feather & Quill Carvers,Coastal Carvers, Lincoln City, Idaho Carvers Guild,WWA Portland,OR and the Lower Columbian Woodcarvers of Longview WA
so I get lot's of NEWSLETTER's to read each month.

Here's what else I enjoy
taking pictures...collecting coins

WELCOME...but where is the CARDNIAL HAT???I still wear mine??Enjoy your new E woodcarving club....



Will in Vancouver WA

Sorry that I have taken quite a while to get back to you (my daughter got married over the summer and that took up a lot of time).  Actually this  is one of few pictures without the Cardinal cap, the blue cap is the St. Louis Area Woodcarvers cap that I wear at our annual show in November.  Thanks for the words of welcome,

John
