This video shows a complete process of carving a beautiful large sized wooden elephant 3 feet in height. The craftsman does an excellent job with his masterful hands with few simple tools and without using complicated machines. He never uses draws any line on wood. Without any sketch or mould he cleverly carves a complete elephant just from the imagination in his mind. Process begins with cutting large wood logs and ends up with smoothing and polishing. The talented artisan carefully engraves fine features of real elephant in to a non living wooden log. The elephant is incredibly beautiful with life like appearance.
First task is to finding a wooden log large enough to carve a bigger elephant. As the log is large the unnecessary chunks from the large wooden log is removed using chain saw. Otherwise it will take at least two months to complete the process. A vice is used to keep the log steady while cutting.
After removing the large chunks all the fine features, organs and body shape are engraved by only using the chisel and mallet. The process needs intricate mental calculation. With each chisel stroke he patiently engraves the live features in to wooden log. The artisan has an intrinsic talent to carve the elephant well proportionately in each side. It doesn’t matter whether it is a small or large elephant; he has the ability to carve each elephant accurately proportionate in body size.
After finishing the carving process, the surface is smoothened by rubbing the sand papers. Then finish the process with polishing the elephant.
