Amazing Wood Carving Photography. Woodcarving is most difficult work or artwork. Only a single pieces of sculpture take several days. A wood carver begins a new carving by selecting a chunk of wood the approximate size and shape of the figure he or she wishes to create or, if the carving is to be large, several pieces of wood may be laminated together to create the required size. The type of wood is important. Hardwoods are more difficult to shape but have greater luster and longevity. Softer woods may be easier to carve, but are less resistant to damage. Any wood can be carved but they all have different qualities and characteristics. The choice will depend on the requirements of carving being done: for example a detailed figure would need a wood with a fine grain and very little figure as strong figure can interfere with ‘reading’ fine detail.Once the sculptor has selected their wood, he or she begins a general shaping process using gouges of various sizes.
