Process of Woodcarving Ganesha! Made with traditional Japanese wood carving techniques!

I have traveled to India. I was intrigued by the Hindu deities of India and felt after that trip that one day I would like to make a wood carving of Ganesha. I do not have extensive knowledge of Hinduism, so there may be some religious errors in the Ganesha statue I made. If there are any mistakes, please point them out in the comments.
The Ganesha statue carved in this video is for sale. I can also produce Ganesha statues and other works of your choice. Please contact us through the website below.

インドの神様は、インドの方々が作成してると勝手に思ってました。 細かいヒダの流れやガネーシャの鼻の柔らかさや肌質、とても素晴らしいです。 全体的に柔らかな雰囲気で、ガネーシャがとても優しくて穏やかな神様にみえます😊

[@JAPAN-WOODCARVING]

ありがとうございます。 基本的にはインドの方々が作っておられると思います😄 私はインド旅行に行った際に大変興味深く思い、いつか作ってみたいなと考えておりました。

A most successful video. Thank you teacher. Most enjoyable and informative to watch. Congratulations on creating Ganesha with such an expressive gaze and distinctive detailing. Sculpture students please note that it is the sharpness of tools that permits great skill to look easy. A master carver at work!

[@JAPAN-WOODCARVING]

Thank you very much. You are right. The sharpness of the chisel is very important in wood carving.

I can’t believe you can just carve holding the wood with your feet. My back hurts just looking at it! I stand straight up with the carving chest high. Basically the Togashi of carving. I’m doing one of the samurai ones right now, thanks so much for all these videos great work! After mimicking you I was able to become a professional sculptor from painter and I can’t thank you enough! Your the only person I learned from off youtube. From how you drill out excess wood to how you organize your Japanese tools I copied it all!

[@sreyanshuchaterjee3962]

Asians dont sit on chairs, they fold their legs and sit down. This helps them stay agile waist down.

It's beautiful but one thing is, if you're doing with religious related sculptures please do not use your feet to hold it !! It's absurd to that religion... Btw Good Blessings to you !! ❤

[@JAPAN-WOODCARVING]

You are right. Thanks for the advice.

[@madsingh]

Actually the carver or carpenter is allowed to use any means including his feet to sculpt or carve a diety, only this instance he is not committing an offence

[@justinetters4544]

my favorite one by far

[@amanvaidya3347]

I think you must try to do not touch your lag to the ideal of Ganesh 💔
