When I am teaching ;-)

I have teached for one month in the engraving's school of LiÃ¨ge.
When I am teaching the drawing course I make in the same time a new draw and I would like to show you.
It is a Mauser

Arnaud Van Tilburgh · Feb 6, 2009

I didn't know there is a school for engraving at Liege, neither that you are a teacher.
But I'm sure you can.
Nice work

Yes it is the only school all over the world where you go out with a school diploma.
It is my old school too.

I wish I knew about such a school about 30 years ago!

Roland, you teach at the finest school one could hope to train at !

Andrew Biggs · Feb 6, 2009

Hi Baptiste

Beautiful drawing and I like the way you transpose it over the rifle.

The engraving school in Leige is indeed a very fine school with some world class students graduating. Francis Huese from Belgium wrote an excellent article about it in the Engraver magazine some time ago. The article gave you a sense of the richness and depth of the school. It was a good read.

Cheers
Andrew

Andrew, is there a way to read back issues of the Engraver ????

Andrew Biggs · Feb 6, 2009

Hi Richard

It was issue #76 Oct/Nov/Dec 2007

FEGA is trying to figure out exactley how make out of print issues available to members............it's a work in progress at the moment.

Cheers
Andrew

richard hall · Feb 6, 2009

thank you for checking into that, keep us informed.

monk · Feb 6, 2009

fuzzyfork: if i can find that copy, i'll mail it to you. it's a very nice article to read.

richard hall · Feb 6, 2009

thanks again Monk

rolandbaptiste · Feb 7, 2009

Is it possible to receive one copy too?
Thanks for all.
If you look on my website you can see I give a particular training course in my worshop with just one student for the best learning and rÃ©duit in 5 days.

Hi Roland,

Iâ€™m very proud to know a teacher of the prestigious school Leon Migon. :tiphat:

Iâ€™ve read Francis Heuseâ€™s article in issue #76 of The ENGRAVER . The PdF copy is in FEGA web site.

Hi Andrew , is there any chance to have other old issues of â€œ the engraverâ€ on line in FEGA Website ?

That would be great for us international engravers :beerchug:

rolandbaptiste · Feb 7, 2009

thank you very much Jean. ;-)

Andrew Biggs · Feb 7, 2009

Hi Santos

Thanks for that link.............I'd forgotten that issue was available for download on the FEGA web site!!

Yes, making back issues available on the web site is the work in progress at the moment. Eventually it will happen but like everything needs a whole lot of time and energy thrown at it to make it happen........that's the hard part at the moment.

Cheers
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I know you make a lot of extra work for Fega , and I know how putting a book on line is time consuming .

But you're going soon to let your fishing rod and your flyes sleep, and you perhaps will found any more time ?

Thank you Andrew and other Fega members, for all you are doing . I've got Fracassi's book at Fega's web site, last Christmas , it's a candy for eyes...

And, if the other issues of the engraver have the same quality than #76, it will be a pleasure to read them

ddushane · Feb 8, 2009

Good Job Roland!

Andrew Biggs · Feb 8, 2009

Thanks for that Santos

You could always join FEGA as an international member like I have and that way you will keep up to date with all the latest issues............and there's some excellent stuff coming up!!

Indeed the fishing rod will be soon enough be asleep............it's hard work catching sheep eating trout down here!!

Cheers
Andrew
