Why is wood carving difficult?

Wood carving is tough for beginners because it mixes art and mechanics. You might quickly pick up tool use, but seeing in 3D takes practice. Good wood, like Basswood, makes your job easier while poor-quality wood can be frustrating. Sharp tools are also a must. Dull ones drag you down, kind of like writing with a broken pencil! Plus, if you carve the wrong way against the grain, you risk splitting. Patience and persistence truly pay off; so take your time to refine your skills, and you'll turn your creative vision into stunning wooden pieces. Eventually, every struggle will lead to a masterpiece, and that feeling? It’s just pure magic! Why is wood carving difficult?
