With 9 other artists, I learned traditional wood carving with local Venda artists in a spectacular setting in the Soutpansberg, near the northern border of South Africa. The days were spent under the trees, tapping out small figures from wood with chisels and hammers surrounded by a primordial landscape with wild creatures on the edge of our camp (and sometimes in the camp).
