Learning to See

Very interesting thread going on over on the WCI site which I have started posting to http://www.woodcarvingillustrated.com/forum/f38/learning-see-18443/ .

Lot's of thought provoking posts about learning to carve and reaching that "ah ha" moment when the thread initiator started seeing the combination of tools & cuts necessary to create a carving he was looking at. i.e. Able to deconstruct how the carving was created. Touches on lot's of very interesting ideas - left brain right brain, Eastern Philosophy vs Western, how we learn, impediments to learning to carve etc.

Check it out.
