Art the Experience

Thirteen time World Champion gives anatomy course in Ohio.

Steve Brice of Fairbanks, AK visited Columbus, OH to teach a one day seminar to the Central Ohio Carving Klub, Sunday September 9, 2007. We were very honored to have Steve visit our shop and work with our club on carving human faces. This was just the tip of the iceberg.

Steve then traveled to Cincinnati, OH to the shop of Artic Diamond, where he taught a three-day seminar on human anatomy. This is the second anatomy course I have taken from Steve, and they just keep getting better and better. The focus on this course was the head and hands. I have worked with many carvers but never have
I learned more than from working with Steve. Steve's attention to fine detail has proven to separate him from the rest of his peers.

Many of the seminars that I now teach have been based on his techniques. I am very thankful to Steve for providing me with the knowledge that
I can pass on to my apprentices and future students.
