Carving Knuckles and Volutes: Peter Galbert

He describes the process carefully and accompanies it with clarifying pictures like the one above. If you've ever wondered about the layout and carving of these elements, take a look at these:

Just found your woodworking blog, very cool! Nice variety of topics, I especially like the graffiti and your comments about aspiring to make a piece composed as lovely as that is. I totally agree!
Funny how we find art in all sorts of places, isn't it?

Thanks for the comment, Jamie. It is indeed funny how we find and make art in unusual places and from unusual materials. I think that Making may be the most significant human trait, and seeing and imagining must come first.
