Welcome James! Great to have you here.
You're framing wood carving as a bridge between nature and cultural story, which is a grounded angle. Most sculptors chase the object. You're after the connection.
P.S. – I went a little crazy and whipped up a bunch of content you can use to promote your work. 😄
Click any link below to check it out! You can use them as-is, or tweak it to your liking.
🏆 I gave your portfolio an honest critique!
✍ I made you social posts for the next 7 days
🛍 I researched interior design trends that suit your work
📧 Here's a professional gallery outreach email you can use
💡 I came up with an idea for your next series!
🖋 Then I wrote you an artist statement
✨ I prepared 250+ beautiful room mock-ups to showcase your work
👥 And finally, I researched your ideal collector
I hope this helps take some of the load off of promoting your art!

Welcome! 👋 The 'wild and wise' line is exactly the chase. I'm after the same thing in the Blue Ridge, just with a camera instead of carving tools. How long have you been working in wood?
Wood and heritage is one thing, not two. The grain is already the archive.
