You’ve created a beautiful carving. Now what? For many traditional and CNC woodcarvers, adding color and choosing a finish can be the most intimidating part of the process. These final steps can make or break a piece yet knowing where to begin often feels like a mystery. Drawing on 50 years of experience, including 32 years of carving iconic pieces for Walt Disney Imagineering, Raymond takes the guesswork out of coloring and finishing. Students will learn techniques that bring out the warmth, depth, and character of their carvings while gaining the confidence to take their work from raw to radiant. Students are encouraged to bring their own carving projects. Day one focuses on refinement and preparation, while day two covers color application and final finishing.
