Too cool. Like that sailor was encased in wood and you slowly released him back to life
Thanks Adam!
This is my absolute favorite format. It’s so relaxing. The detail is incredible. Personally, I wish you had a longer version I love it so much ❤
Noted! Thank you!!
❤
Woodturning is more art than photography. That photographer is full of himself.
Yeah, alot of photography is literally just using your eyes
I like detailed work, you have shown it.
Incredible job! As old wood carver with 35 years experience I can still learn from the younger one👍
Thank you so much!!
Something so satisfying about watching cottonwood bark being carved. Your end all creation is always nothing short of Amazing. I love the pipe and the way you left the bark on the bottom left beard. 🙌🏻Bravo Alec! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much! I'm glad you like that little bark spot!
I can see the experiences that the sailor had, that's the ART
Thank you!
Very, very nice work, I appreciate your keen design sense and well-honed craftsmanship. I'm at last eagerly returning to sculpture and carving after a long career in television, and you've further inspired me. I mention television only because I can further compliment you with some authority on how well lit your videos are and how good your mic placement is -- especially for the wood carving genre! Being able to so clearly hear the wood shave off is priceless for gauging the pressure you're using, really feeling the density of the wood you're working on, etc. Despite academic training in sculpture and design, I expect I'm going to learn a thing or two from you. Thanks so much for making these videos and making them with care. They're a wonderful resource.
Really appreciate the encouragement! Especially from someone with your background! Thank you!
WOW!! I gotta get some cotton wood bark.
I love the moment when you do the details on the eyes and BOOM, he’s alive.
Thank you!
Brilliant , the detail is amazing . I’ve just been asked to carve a coal miner for a friend whose late father worked the mines . If it doesn’t work out I’ll just whittle a mole lol .
Thanks for the upload , learn a lot 👍
Thank you! That will be a fun commission!!
👏👏👏The final result is great!
Super good 👌👏
Thank you!

hi, why do you prefer to use cottonwood bark compared to other types of wood? congratulations for your job
Thank you! It is very easy to work! Soft and holds detail fairly welln
@@AlecLaCasseArt io ho a disposizione solo legno di ulivo, mandorla , ciliegio noce o quercia, legni pregiati ma molto duri
Absolutely superb bit of work.
Very very impressive indeed great skill and vision and not a pencil line anywhere.
Definitely something to aspire to and maybe one day be able to achieve the same end result.
Question if I may 🤔 what type of wood are you using ???
Or is it one of those very thick barks that is like a wood ?
Any advice or help greatfully recieved. Cheers Les.
Thank you very much! It is just bark! Cottonwood bark!
Ca you please do a Mario Lanza Bust?! (want One!) Dave...
I’ll look into it!
Awesome master piece. You are seriously gifted👌🏼 what wood species is that that is so soft
Thank you so much! It’s cottonwood bark!
@@AlecLaCasseArt wow...awesome. never seen anybody work on wood like that. But nonetheless itscool to know. Thank you for the feedback sir. Bt tbe wsy im new to your channell. I will try to watch all your videos.
🤝👍👍
great work ... love this guy .. the carving that is. Are you working from a photo or are you letting the wood talk to you?
It is a commission and the customer requested his father influence the face of the sailor. So I used a reference photo!
How did you know that this old sailor was hidden in this piece of wood ? 😉😁😘
Mamiejo from France
Haha! It came to me ;)
What kind of wood is that? Looks so soft or is your tools extremely sharp??
Both are true! The tools are sharp and the wood is soft! It’s called cottonwood bark.

What wood do you use .
Hello,
maybe it seems a bit weird to ask: how do you fasten/fix your piece of wood onto the easel?
I screw the piece of wood to a plywood fixture and then clamp the plywood to the easel using 2” spring clamps.
@@AlecLaCasseArt thank you :)
men, i can go a day without watching your videos sir
Glad to hear that!!
You practice on clay or wood only?
I do sculpt in clay too!
What kind of wood you use for this?
Cottonwood bark!
Amazing skill, what kind of wood is it, anyone, please.
Cotton 🪵
What type of wood did you use?
I believe it is cottonwood
Hi Alec I'm one of your subscribers can you tell me where do you buy your bark wood any web site plz 🙏
I have had good luck with BC cottonwood bark!
что за дерево такое мягкое?
What kind of wood are you carving here? Your chisels must be uber sharp because it looks too easy!
It’s cottonwood bark!
Made that look way too easy.
Thank you!!
What kind of wood. Answer me.
What is going on with that wood. Ive never seen it cut and break up like that
It’s actually bark, cottonwood bark
Ma che legno è?si può sapere?
You have fabulously artistic carving skills and the guy has just the character and expression needed. I was thoroughly enjoying the watch and looking forward to the finished product when the video ended abruptly. What's the idea of that? I feel completely cheated! In future please either finish the thing (preferably painted as well) or warn us in advance. I WOULD have subscribed.
Thank you Ray! And sorry you felt that way! The carving was finished by the end of the video and I don’t paint carvings very often but that may change in the future! Thanks

Very brittle wood. I’m not familiar with
Cottonwood bark
Can you put your weed in there?
