Jim Linnell's Elktracks Studio

Hey , I am blessed to be invited once again to present some workshops in Mt. Hope, OH, the last week of July. These were very well attended last year, so if you want to be a part, I encourage you to sign up early. The info on how to save your seat is on the flyer.

Would you like to learn how to capture the personality and spirit of the creatures you carve in leather? That is what you will be be shown in this workshop. Come see why this workshop always sells out. Register at https://leathercraftersjournal.com/product/introduction-to-figure-carving-wt/

Four weeks from today, I will be teaching a workshop in Anchorage, AK. I can't wait to see my Alaskan friends. Hope you can join me. Info is on the flyer.

In the introduction to his Top 20 book, Al Stohlman said “…these patterns are prepared for those who have already had some experience in leather carving and desire something more challenging.” Oh my goodness, he wasn’t kidding! If you would like to take on Stohlman's Challenge, join me at the Waco Leather Show and we will carve this wallet pattern. This class is not for a beginner. https://leathercraftersjournal.com/product/the-challenge-of-stohlman/

Are you ready for another great leather workshop in July? How about joining me in Anchorage, Alaska on July 11th? Without question, the most popular and copied class I've taught is on creating 3D Feathers from leather. These sell really well, so come learn how to make them. Info is on the flyer.

If your July schedule isn't already full, maybe you can join me in Mt Hope, OH on the 27th & 28th. I will be presenting three workshops there, all designed to help leather workers expand their skills. All the info to save a seat is on the flyer.
