Jiefolin carving excellence

The 59 -year -old Fu Huibao was a native of Yidukou Town, Lingcheng District. In 1990, he had the idea of ​​studying and condemning life. He and his wife went to the woodcarving craft factory to learn to make furniture and woodcarving with the master. "In the past, there was no foundation. The gesture of practicing tools alone was almost half a month. The tools were sharp, and the fingers did not know how much injuries had been suffered." Fu Huibao recalled and could make up for it. At that time, he followed the master to work with the master during the day. , Practicing the basic skills, craftsmanship continues to improve in the portrayal of one by one.

Through hard work, Fu Huibao slowly learned the various skills of graphic carving, and even the works even praised the master. But he did not stop here, and once again set off to study at Dongyang City, Zhejiang.

After the rough outline is carved, it is carefully processed, polished and polished ..." Fu Huibao introduced it For a few days, more than a few months, or even a year, the slow work is detailed. The hard work of outsiders is a kind of enjoyment for the preservation. "I witnessed the little bit of wood transformation. Whenever I see the rotten wood becoming a handicraft in my hands, all fatigue is achieved. I feel scattered. "

Cleverly borrowed and carved by nature

The world often says that "rotten wood cannot be carved", but in the eyes of the roots, "dead wood" is a raw material with endless potential. In the studio's studio, piles of piles of wood and roots were stacked. These were returned from the streets for many years. "Seeing the root of the tree, he looked like he saw the baby." His wife Zhang Yumei said with a smile. Over time, everyone knows that there is a old man who loves to pick up tree roots. Some enthusiastic villagers will take the initiative to call him when they find the root of the tree.

Fuhui Guo told reporters that the selection of materials is the first step in the production of root carving. You must choose tree species with hard materials, delicate wood, and stable wood, such as jujube, elm, peach wood, etc. "The selection criteria in shape can be summarized as four types of sparse, strange, ancient, and strange.

Now the woodcarving processing industry is used to use a large number of machines, but the payment will keep the handicraft.
