WOODCARVING CLASSES by Patrick Damiaens | A Course ornamental Woodcarving | Wood Carving Course - Classes in Belgium

 Wood Carving Course in Belgium

Are you looking to take a creative and technically advanced course?
Then maybe woodcarving – ornamental woodcarving might be something for you. This two-year training program, with possible specialization years, will give you a good insight into the various stages of carving (and working in relief on) ornaments and decorative panels in a wide variety of furniture styles.

For many years now, I’ve been teaching this course to passionate and interested people, who want to learn more about this complex subject. The course members start out with simple exercises, architectural designs, carving ...... and simple flower designs. 
The level of difficulty and complexity of the exercises is gradually increased and adapted to the individual capacities and wishes of the course member. The course member is introduced to various types of (raw) material, tools and equipment. You will learn all about different carving techniques and how to apply these. 

If you want to be notified of when a new course is planned, make sure to register on the waiting list.

For a number of years now I’ve been taking the students in my ornamental carving – woodcarving class on an annual fieldtrip. The Château Versailles is one of those places they really look forward to. Yet this year, I opted for a number of exquisite locations right here on Belgian soil.

The Château of Modave is unique because of its beautifully preserved historical interior and furniture, dating back to the period between the 17^th and the 19^th century. 

At the Château Deulin we were fortunate enough to experience the annual “Antiques & collectibles fair”. Less fortunate was the fact that on this day the castle was closed to the public. 

The Château of Modave and the Château Deulin are two destinations which are easily accessible by car. A visit is highly recommended!

On the way back, we also visited the city of Liège, where we briefly went sightseeing and where we visited the renowned Musée d'Ansembourg, a museum dedicated to the 18^th century decorative arts and furniture of Liège. We ended this exceptional day in a restaurant in the historical city centre of Liège.

Here are some pictures of the day in question:
