For caricature carvers the greatest challenges and the greatest
rewards come from carving the head and face. This is where the
personality of the figure resides. The exaggerated nose, the
enlarged ears, the toothy or toothless grin...they all combine to
give the figure a story we can understand at a glance. In this new
book, Tom Wolfe concentrates on the caricature head by carving
busts. About 8 inches tall, these carvings give plenty of room for
detail, and allow the carver to explore new ways of giving
expression to their work. One figure is carved step-by-step, with
clear color photographs illustrating each technique. They carry the
reader from laying the pattern on the blank to the final painting.
Also included are patterns for 15 other figures, including
military, western, and Victorian characters, and a full color
gallery of 23 finished busts, each shown from four angles. This is
an important guide for caricature carvers, and will lead to hours
of learning and pleasure.
