Brian's interest in wood developed when, in 1971, he
obtained a wood turning lathe. After some seven years wood turning he was introduced to
wood carving by Joe Wilding and Brian Chalmers, who convinced him to go with them to Great
Missenden for a wood carving weekend at the Old Abbey. This turned out to be the most
enjoyable hobby with which he has been involved.
Within about seven years of carving, he
became a Further Education Tutor at Oaklands Community School at Lordshill in Southampton.
This has now developed into a Woodcarving Club, which has become self-funding. Brian is a
member of Romsey Art Group, The Woodlanders Group of Artists, and also belongs to the
Waterside Guild of Woodcarvers. His aim is to maintain an active role in woodcarving
during retirement, using various types of woods, making the best use of grain and texture
and colour to enhance the subject being carved, and having good presentation and finish.
