Thank you ! I'm working on traditional Northern New Mexico retablos. I incise the outline by hand with an incising tool but I just bought a Dremel tool so that I can begin doing relief carving on my work. I paint on a pine board that is coated with rabbit skin glue gesso, incised, then painted with egg tempera paint. I will now be first: doing the relief carving on the bare wood, then coating with gesso...etc. Your lesson was very helpful to me.

I have a handful of woodworking projects on the go and I have always wondered about carving instead of burning. Still a newbie to woodworking, but this tutorial helps out a LOT! I'm thinking about making a few beer steins out of wood and will look at carving the recipient's name into the mug. Thanks!!
