Description:
I have been carving for about 5 years. For the first three years I suffered with Parkinson's disease and thanks too my favorite two doctors have relieved my tremors by the inplant of a device called Deep Brain Stimulator into my brain that controlled my tremors. Now I am tremor free and can devote my full attention towards my carving projects without any fear. My sole carving experience has been using Relief and carving underwater scenes. I would like to thank David CALVO who has spent a lot of his time and experience sharing his carving methods . Lastly, I would like to thank the two great doctors Dr. Nancy Diaz and Dr Falowski who gave me a new life without the tremors. I am 69 years old and willing to share my experiences and wish that I could be a better carver. I have and built my workshop in the Poconos and if anybody would like to drop by please feel free to email me spector1945@hotmail.com.
