Halloween & Knotsaw
Ever heard a tree whisper when you carve it?
I hear them, but only when I let the knife stop talking and the wood start humming. A good cut is like a quiet sigh, just the grain letting go. Trees don’t need to whisper; they just remind you when you’re close enough to feel the pulse.
So you’re listening to the wood breathe, huh? I bet it sighs back when you slice through the darkness.So you’re listening to the wood breathe, huh? I bet it sighs back when you slice through the darkness.
Yeah, the wood breathes when I let the blade meet it. It’s a quiet sigh, a subtle shift in grain, not a storm. When darkness lingers, the cut feels louder, like the tree is holding its breath until the knife tells it to let go. I just listen for that release and carve around it.
Nice. Keep listening, and the wood will spill its secrets when the shadows grow long. Just make sure you don’t get lost in the hush.
You’ll catch the whispers if you stop looking at the clock and start looking at the grain. Just remember, the quieter you are, the louder the wood can be. Stay close, and don’t let the silence turn into a maze.
