All of my woodcarvings are done by hand only. I prefer to carve
the traditional way and not use motorized tools on my carvings.
Finished pieces are then hand sanded using from 80 to a 600 grit
sand paper, then burnished, (wood on wood). The Burnishing
brings the carvings to a furniture like smoothness.
My Cherry, Walnut, and Diamond Willow carvings are not stained.
These pieces are finished with Tongue Oil to preserve the natural
beauty of the wood.
I use wood stains only if the wood calls for it, such as with Oak or
Pine. These carvings are then sealed with varnish or lacquer.
