4.0 out of 5 stars This set of videos is about Woodworking Artists, and occasionally techniques., February 8, 2009

This review is from: Beyond Wood - Portrait of an Artist - The Fine Art of Turned and Sculpted Wood - 6 DVDs all regions (DVD)

I was looking forward to watching a woodworking technique, how-to collection. I quickly realized that this series is about the artists, not how-to. It would be on A&E rather than on the HGTV. However, there are a few techniques shown. It is interesting to note that different philosophies, create different approaches to the lathe, and produce very different work. Perhaps, this is the point of the series. I still found it very interesting, and enlightening, although it was different from my expectations. High production values!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great exhibit of fine art!, March 7, 2006

This review is from: Beyond Wood - Portrait of an Artist - The Fine Art of Turned and Sculpted Wood - 6 DVDs all regions (DVD)

I found these CDs by accident and I was introduced to a beautiful art that seems to be known only by specialists when lots of pieces are already acquired by the museums all over the world. The masterpieces are shown very elegantly and you have plenty of time to appreciate their technical quality and their beauty. The artists are interviewed by a real connaissor in that special art and we see them at work. You learn, you discover and you fill up your eyes with beauty.
