Scenic Relief Carving with Georg Keilhofer
Relief carving is essentially the art of bringing life and depth to a carving that is two dimensional. In Germany it is an exquisite and beautiful technique. Georg shares his master in woodcarving with the readers. In this book Georg guides the reader through how to use the tools, which ones work for each process, and how to read the grain in different types of wood. You'll need sharp tools which help you go where you want them to and cut more clean and crisp lines. He takes you step-by-step through the carving of a plaque depicting a deer running through the woods. You wont be using sandpaper because it will ruin the fresh appearance of a cut tool. This book is illustrated with full color photos & description for carving a plaque of a deer running through a forest. When using the illustrations and knowledge of Georg Keilhofer you will learn to create your very own realistic carving that stands out from other carvings..
