"I was on Cortez Island when Phill was teaching a carving workshop and saw him supervising adult learners with both sensitivity and power." -- Sandra Thomson, General Manager, Port Theatre, Nanaimo, BC
Since 1998, Phill has conducted wood carving workshops across North America, fulfilling his desire to help others experience the liberation and satisfaction which wood carving provides. Phill teaches the basic hand carving techniques, honoring the original aboriginal carvers and their traditions.
He offers workshops for beginners wanting an introduction to the art of wood carving and basic techniques as well as for the more intermediate carvers wanting to hone their skills. Pieces that have been created in past workshops include masks, ceremonial bowls, and feast dishes.
Phill believes that carving can help you realize your own personal healing thereby contributing to the overall healing of the communities in which you live and work.
His workshops will help you connect your heart with your hands, eyes and mind, while patiently manifesting inner thoughts and emotions, transforming them into a visual work of art.
