Note from Jim Linnell: “These videos represent a piece of history. They capture invaluable lessons from great artists, some of whom are no longer with us. Originally produced over 20 years ago, and later digitized from VHS, the sharpness of the image or quality of the audio may not be quite on par with our more modern video technology. However, note that this does not in any way compromise the quality of the instruction.” Patterns Associated With This Class Introduction to Figure Carving Pattern Customers Also Bought Figure Car
