The letters are to Sue's specifications and she also supplied the oak, which is beautiful but could be a bit splintery for the unwary carver to cut letters into! It should last well outdoors though.
My name is Alistair Park and I'm a professional carver who is based in Bristol, England. I've been carving for over twenty-eight years and I also enjoy teaching my skills to people of all ages. You'll find posts here about all kinds of things to do with carving; the work that I do, the people that I meet and the things that I see which inspire me. Please feel free to comment on anything of interest, it'd be great to hear from you!

Lettercutting in oak
I've just finished this lettercutting for a friend's house sign. It's a sort of a 'thank you' for showing my work in an exhibition called 'Inspired', which she curated at Westonbirt Arboretum in Gloucestershire.
