If you go to this url http://www.cbc.ca/nxnw/ you can hear a half hour interview with David Western master lovespoon carver. Its a fascinating interview dealing with the history and techniques of the craft. There is also a link on the page to his blog http://davidwestern.blogspot.com. The blog has a link to the donation page for the Left Coast Eisteddfod. We would like to encourage all our members and readers to listen to the interview, read the blog and consider donating to the Left Coast Eisteddfod fund. Every dollar you donate entitles you to one "ticket" in the online raffle for the unique lovespoon which David is carving to support the event. Enjoy!
