Carving a Rococo ornament in oak
___________________________

On November 22nd 2009 I posted my
first educational wood carving video on YouTube. The idea behind my YouTubechannel was to acquaint people with the art
of wood carving, traditional craftsmanship, and to highlight the wide and
diverse range of applications of ornamental woodcarving.
At first I was a bit skeptical about promoting
my work on YouTube. I wasn’t immediately convinced about the use and added
value of this “new medium”.
However, gradually this YouTube channel gained more
and more popularity across the globe.
Indeed, YouTube has proven to be a
valuable tool, which has enabled me to familiarize people with the métier of wood carving, and the
complexity of artisanal craftsmanship.
100.000 views on
Youtube
My first youtube movie reached 100.000 views in August 2013, with the educational movie 'Heraldic Woodcarving' and needless to say I was very proud of that. Now a few years later, again another small movie 'Patrick Damiaens at the Museum Vrijhof in Maastricht' reached his 100.000 views. It was published in March 2012.
As the contents of
my uploads are strictly of a explorative or educational, rather than of a
senseless mainstream nature, I am convinced that reaching 100.000 views is
quite an recognition.
This particular video shows the various stages
of carving a Rococo ornament carved in oak. I truly enjoy the feedback, and going
through the viewer comments.
Thanks!
Thanks!
