Customer Reviews
This set of videos is about Woodworking Artists, and occasionally techniques.
I was looking forward to watching a woodworking technique, how-to collection. I quickly realized that this series is about the artists, not how-to. It would be on A&E rather than on the HGTV. However, there are a few techniques shown. It is interesting to note that different philosophies, create different approaches to the lathe, and produce very different work. Perhaps, this is the point of the series. I still found it very interesting, and enlightening, although it was different from my expectations. High production values!
Great videos
I really enjoy all the videos in this compilation and recommend it to anyone that loves the art of wood. It is a great gift!
A great exhibit of fine art!
I found these CDs by accident and I was introduced to a beautiful art that seems to be known only by specialists when lots of pieces are already acquired by the museums all over the world. The masterpieces are shown very elegantly and you have plenty of time to appreciate their technical quality and their beauty. The artists are interviewed by a real connaissor in that special art and we see them at work. You learn, you discover and you fill up your eyes with beauty.
