Wooden Art – A blog about wooden art, a place where artists can post their work, and people can see the progress of these amazing sculptures.
Wooden art is a great hobby because it has no boundaries. You can make anything you want to – there is no limit to your imagination. It is also a very rewarding hobby because you are making something with your own two hands. Wooden art can be used in many ways: as an investment, a decoration for your home or business, or simply as a gift for someone special.
It’s fun and easy to start making wooden art; all you need is some wood and basic tools that you probably already have at home. And then all you need is creativity…
I suppose you are expecting a story about carpenters? Well, let’s start with the story of one – a man called John. John is a carpenter who loves his job so much; he works in the field for 50 hours per week and spends 20 hours at home working on his hobby.
But what came to mind when I typed the word “carpenter”? For me, it was a picture of an old man dressed up in blue overalls and wearing glasses. He looks like an expert with lots of knowledge on how to make things out of wood.
In fact, every time I see a wooden bench, table or house, I always think that they must be very expensive. In my mind, making wooden art is something only experts can do.
Well, I was wrong! When I visited his website , I found out that there are many other people who love making wooden art as well. They seem to have different reasons for doing this kind of hobby – whether they want to express themselves through pictures or want to make useful furniture for their homes or offices. The interesting thing is that the tools they use are very ordinary and simple; it just doesn’t give us the impression that such things can only be made by experts (but then again,
For a carpenter who is having fun creating wooden art, the best advice is to use the same tools that he uses for his work. But if one day, he decides to make something different, then it will bring more joy in its creation and in its usage. It could be anything – from a shoe rack, a coffee table or even a bird house.
This blog was created by Marcin Fabiański, an amateur woodworker with over 20 years of experience. He has had a long career as an interior designer and furniture maker. Apart from woodworking I have also been writing this blog since 2010 where I share my thoughts on the world of woodworking, both professional and hobbyist.
You can find here some ideas on how to make wooden art. I have divided them into categories such as “wooden art projects”, “wooden furniture” or “wooden sculptures”. You will also find here my articles on my professional work as an interior designer and furniture maker.

I believe that the most important thing for me is
In the modern world people are busier than ever before. Their lives are filled with work and social commitments, and there is little time for other activities. Almost everyone likes to take up some kind of hobby, but is this just a way of passing the time? Does it have any value in our fast-paced society?
There are hundreds of hobbies that people enjoy while they’re taking a break from their everyday life. The most common type is probably sports, followed by outdoor activities such as fishing or hunting, and also crafts such as woodworking or quilting.
The popularity of these hobbies shows that people like to get outside of themselves and into something that has no boundaries. To get completely lost in a difficult task. To immerse themselves in an activity so much that they lose all track of time.
Let us take a closer look at one hobby – wooden art – which is both relaxing and rewarding for those who choose to take it on.
I have always been fascinated by wooden art, especially the work of John D. Windsor. I have written about him for my blog named “wooden art”. I have described his style and I have stated my opinion on different examples of his work. I have also provided information about the process of making wooden art and about the materials used for it.

There are different ways to enjoy any hobby. The first one is to do it so that you can make it a career. The second way is by making sure that you enjoy the process of doing it, even if you are not going to earn from it. If you do something with joy and passion, the money will follow. But I am thinking here of people who want to do something but have no idea what they want to do or how they are going to be able to make money out of it. I think that if you really want something, you will find a way even if at first you think there’s no way. The important thing is that every time you fail and feel like giving up, you remember that this is just part of the process. You have to believe in yourself and your work. And when times are hard, all you need is just a little boost of confidence and then everything will be OK again.
If I had been born with someone who could give me some good advice about how to make my ideas better, I would have taken it because I’m still learning about how to improve my skills as an artist. But I’m still enjoying the process of creating wooden art even if there are times when I feel like giving up because my art didn
I started my woodworking hobby as a teenager, and I am still enjoying it as an adult. Growing up I had more time than money, so I built almost everything with scrap materials. I enjoyed it so much that I went on to study architecture. In school, the projects I enjoyed most were the ones where I could make something unique, rather than just duplicate someone else’s work.
I have recently finished a book about woodworking, and would like to continue writing about my experiences in this field. Please contact me if you are interested in getting a copy of the book.
