My work 18~Crane~

「鶴に願いを」
 
ちょっと志向を変えて、
今回は動物にチャレンジ。
 
お花のカービングは
いろいろな技が必要となるので豪華で美しく、
それゆえ、人気があります。
一方、動物の方は、いまいち華やかさに欠け、
技も結構単調なので、
あんまり彫る人はいないみたいです。
確かに、動物はお花に比べると強弱がつけにくいです。
 
みなさんはどう思われますか?
 
今日は広島原爆投下記念日。
亡くなった方への鎮魂の祈りと、
未来の平和を祈って…。
鶴さん、願いを届けて!
 
使ったナイフは1本、
所要時間は1.5時間でした。

====================
 
 “Smile and Peace” 

I tried something new this time.
I carved an animal – crane- this time.

Since carving flowers requires various techniques, they look gorgeous, therefore very popular.
On the other hand, animal carvings do not present gorgeousness with rather simple techniques.
So not many people seem to prefer carving them.
To be honest, for me, carving animals are difficult to emphasis things on soaps compared to flowers.
 
What do you think?
 
It is the memorial day today, August 6th, to commemorate the dropping of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima in 1945.
Honouring the victims of the atomic bombings and wishing for world peace…
Hoping that this crane will bring a peace of mind to someone who sees my work…!
 
One knife was used for this work.
It took me about 1.5 hours.
