Larry Nowell
Larry, from Knoxville, TN, is well known for his sculptured portraits in wood. He has carved with Vic Hood, John Burke and Neil Cox. He recently completed training at the Geisler-Moroder Austrian Woodcarving School located in Austria. His portrait carving classes have been featured several times in Chip Chats, the National Association of Woodcarvers' magazine. He always tells me that he has carved with the best and the worst now he wants to carve with you! His wife says she thinks he likes teaching even more than he likes carving. He is easy going and has a great sense of humor so carving with Larry is always fun. He may explain how to sharpen your tools or explain how you take the grain of the wood into account in carving, but he does not give lectures. His teaching style is to assist and coach students at whatever skill level they are--from beginner to experienced.
