I cut it out avoiding some cracks in the newly acquired hard wild cherry wood. One of my aims is to create pieces that can be enjoyed from a few angles. I will create a few interesting facial expre...

The tree, its branches swaying in the gentle breeze and the soft color of the magnolia wood gives it a calm impression.--CALM / W80×H65×D65 mm / 35 gそよ風に揺れる枝ぶりと、朴の木材のやわらかな色合...

I am working on the final finishing touches. It is so small that it fits in my hand, so I have to be careful not to break the branches myself by applying too much force.最後の仕上げ作業を行っていま...

All that's left is the last large branch. By shifting the center of gravity slightly to the right, a different expression began to emerge.あとは最後の大きな枝を残すのみです。少しだけ重心を右側に置...

There is no music that gives me more relaxation than the sound of carving wood.木材を彫る音以上にわたしを寛がせてくれる音楽はありません。

It is about 7 cm (1.5 in) piece of magnolia wood. I plan to carve a small but complex tree shape with five branches. Precisely because it is a soft wood, I want to try carving a shape that I am abl...

Giant tree that continues to live even though a cave has formed in its trunk. It has a spiral shape inside, where it nurtures the lives of numerous creatures.--SPIRAL / W235×H130×D150 mm / 866 g幹...

The entire undulation at the top has been roughly carved out. The hardness of the zelkova wood has made it difficult for my muscles and physical strength to keep up with my feelings, but I have fin...

There are many things we can't know until we open the lid. When I removed the damaged parts of the wood that could not be used, I was surprised to see beautiful grain with complex colors. It is lik...

It is time for me to start taking it seriously in three dimensions rather than in planes, so I started carving from the bottom. When carving the bottom, the top is carved facing down, so I am worri...

I laid it on its side and took the photo. The side is carved perpendicular to the grain, but in a different direction than the top. I am going to carve some spaces between the folds on the side tha...

After carving for an hour, the muscles in my upper body, especially the muscles in my right arm holding the hammer, scream. There are designs that are only possible because of the hardness. I want ...

About a third of the top part is now visible. Zelkova wood is very hard and dense, which is why I feel it has a elastic nature. This property has the great advantage that it does not crack easily w...
