I am so grateful for the care and detail given to this course. The camera work is superb: from start to finish of each letter he is carving and explaining, Athar never takes the camera away. You literally do not miss a single hammer strike - you are much closer than if you were looking over his shoulder!

Excellent online letter carving class! The demonstration videos are superb, giving a level of close-up vision which I haven't been able to gain even in real life at the various carving evening class I attended.

Dr. Peter DaviesGP

Top tier content. Athar is very knowledgeable and talented. He is also particularly good at breaking things down and teaching them. Not all artists make good teachers, but he definitely makes one.
I highly recommend just jumping in and taking the course. You will be in good hands!
