In this DVD, Nora takes you through a classical European corbel.

In this lesson, Nora teaches you how to:
- Think in three dimensions
- Work within the framework of a border
- Use the difficult spoon gouge
- Carve a classic acanthus leaf
Approximately 100 minutes. Pattern included.

Internationally known master woodcarver and teacher Nora Hall was born in Amsterdam, Holland in 1922. Her father was the renowned Dutch master woodcarver Johannes Leereveld. Nora became an apprentice to her father, studying in the tradition of the great Dutch master woodcarvers of which her father was a member. This tradition was the centuries-old approach of immersing the novice completely in methods designed to instill speed and a wide range of essential skills in a relatively short period of time so the apprentice was soon a valuable asset in the master woodcarver's studio. These are the very same efficient, speed-building methods Nora imparts today to her students nation-wide and in her Essential European Woodcarving DVD series.
