Working With Wood Books

Cypress knees are actually the little stumps of trees in swamps in the southeast United States. These stumps stick out of the water and take on various sizes and shapes. They are well known in carving circles for their excellent carving properties.

In this book, you'll pick up all the knowledge and skills you need to successfully carve cypress knees into a wood spirit, Santa's face, and gnome (or elf). After those three step by step projects, the book has eight more patters for you to try out. Also includes advice on composition and a full color picture gallery of completed carvings
