Excellent craftsmanship with basic tools 👍🏴 Spent several months in Kenya whilst in the Army Loved the people. Was in the cottage hospital in Nanuki Caroline was my nurse 1985.
Love to watch these artists work! I have a shop full of carving tools and when seeing what they work with and the beauty they create, it fills me with so much hope. Truly inspirational!!
this is an amazing event a total display of artisans and a natural beauty of wildlife and culture in a certain country in Kenya ..my salute to all the author of this event ...thank you for sharing this video
*YOU ARE ALL AMAZING!!!* I am so inspired! What you were able to do with the tools that you guys have is spectacular! It makes me grateful for all the tools I have easy access to. I guess if I didn’t have the ability to use these types of tools I wouldn’t be able to carve. But you ALL have Risen Above All That. I’m so Impressed by the Artist Y’all are🥰
The entire Video was incredible, but I started talking to my Internet when that man made his own paintbrush 🖌 by hammering the edge of a stick to soften the fibers and woodgrain into a tip; GENIUS‼️
This is a fantastic video! Such beautiful carvings and made so sincerely. I have no talent for carving though I have tried many times. These men make it look so easy. Simple tools, home made paints and stains. Very enjoyable to watch.
Very true. Although the human involved is the most sophisticated ''tool'' in the known universe. The items we use to craft and create are an extension of our capacity as a sophisticated machine. Whether we use power tools or iron knives doesn't change our ability to demonstrate unbelievable creations.
7lostboy I'm not sure what's being used here exactly. The indigenous people have local names for the trees they use. I've heard terms such as "Iron-wood" for one carving I have. Another is made from a cedar like wood that I'm told weathers very well.
AMAZING, GOD BLESS THESE HARD WORKING TSLENTED ARTISTS. AND HOPE PEOPLE WHO BUY UNDERSTAND THE HARD WORK TIME EFFORT AND PATIENCE HAS GONE INTO EACH PEACE. VALUE THEIR WORK AND PAY THEM ACCORDINGLY.
Interesting to see a unique type of tools used. The adze, chisel on a stick tool looks great for hard woods, and the knives they use are a bit like a Japanese kiridashi. Small number of tools and just using a log for holding the work, very creative. Also the skill of the user!
That was an amazing video! So much talent and great to see other carvers around the world. Did anyone catch what kind of wood they were using? They mentioned its characteristics, but I never heard the species.
Thanks for this. It showcases some very talented people. I feel, however, that the makers of the video made a significant mistake in not showing, in much more detail and for longer, the actual carvings. Frankly, I am not interested in what a craftsman looks like. I want to hear what they are saying, see what they are doing and see the final result as fully as possible. What we had here were snatches of the work, enough to see that it was very good, but no more. Why focus on the human face all the time, in a video which is about a competition in carving?
not sure pice is cost ship but get web site up maybe people don't go country directly might buy some peaces. I know baught walking stick that elephant or rhino for handle those not detaled some these. from zoo thought help animals and people. sure same thing happen here. also bought zebra head statue top of arch with mini full size zebra grazing.
Nie mają profesjonalnych narzędzi ani warsztatów a tworzą z pasją piękne rzeźby. Co może być wymówką dla nas że mimo dostępu do materiałów i narzędzi nie tworzymy równie estetycznych prac. ?
Nice work, but it looked like the wood was heavily saturated with sap. Otherwise not fond of the carving with the big cats shredding an Impala, ok I know they got to eat too, but as a photographer I would never take a picture like that.
The silly loud and annoying background music distracts and ruins this Video! ... No need for music playing while the sculptors are talking and working!

Very impressive. I brought back a lot of wood carvings from west Africa but sadly, never got to meet the artists that made them.
+n2dabloo Hi just wondering what type of wood is been use to carve these loverly animals.
7lostboy I'm not sure what's being used here exactly. The indigenous people have local names for the trees they use. I've heard terms such as "Iron-wood" for one carving I have. Another is made from a cedar like wood that I'm told weathers very well.

The winners carving was amazing. I carve a bit myself and I know how much skill that it takes to make a piece like that in wood.
One word, Amazing.

I would love to be there to watch these fine artists work first hand.
That was an amazing video! So much talent and great to see other carvers around the world. Did anyone catch what kind of wood they were using? They mentioned its characteristics, but I never heard the species.
IMPRESIONANTE TALENTO!!!
That guy just made a crush out of a piece of wood by smacking it until the tree fibers loosen up. That's an excellent use of resources.
amazing amazing video great talent these are all very talented individuals and i hope my skills one day could compare somewhat to them.
masters...masters all,,very appreciated,, thanks,
