London
Angel is a highly skilled Bulgarian artisan, with a passion for traditional ornamental woodcarving.
His journey began at the age of 14 when he began studying wood carving, carpentry and furniture restoration. Since then, he has mastered his craft in various countries, including Croatia, Montenegro, Spain, Scotland and now London, where he has been creating bespoke work for museums and monasteries.
Angel's speciality is traditional ornamental woodcarving, and he takes great pride in preserving these timeless woodcarving techniques. Despite his extensive experience, Angel remains humble and very approachable, his teaching style is calm and thorough.
Angel's studio is a sight to behold, it's super organised, with beautiful pieces of wood and tools satisfyingly arranged. Angel insists on only using traditional tools, which he feels produce better, more organic, results compared to modern machinery.
Overall, Angel's love for traditional ornamental woodcarving is apparent in everything he does. He is a skilled artisan who takes pride in preserving the past and teaching others how to do the same.
