Little in size, but big in personality!
With just one carving knife and two simple patterns,
you can carve a whole community of characters in
the Scandinavian flat-plane style. Acclaimed artist
Harley Refsal will teach you how to carve more than
20 characters in wood - from Monk to Police Officer
and Lumberjack.
In Whittling Little Folk, you will find step-
by-step carving and painting instructions for
a Scandinavian-inspired man and woman.
Once you have learned to carve these two
projects, you can use the same technique
to complete additional patterns with some
subtle alterations. Also included is a brief
overview of the Scandinavian flat-plane style
of carving, as well as four different views
of each project for a complete 360-degree
view of the character.
The figures in Whittling Little Folk vary in
complexity-there are projects for the beginner
as well as the seasoned carver. They're fun, and
won't take too much time - a caricature carver's
dream come true.
