These ancient creatures from folklore have captured the modern
imagination, including Tom Wolfe's. In this book he brings his
creativity and skill to the task of creating a whole community of
gnomes, bringing them to life from a block of wood. With each step
illustrated in full color, Tom takes the carver cut-by-cut to a
finished figure. The book includes a gallery and patterns for 5
other gnomes plus "gnome" accessories such as mushrooms and a cart.
The gnomes are exciting projects, allowing the carver to add a
little of his or her own creativity to the work. The step-by-step
illustrations mean that even the beginning carver can end up with a
gnome he or she will be proud of. In this book, Tom makes extensive
use of the power carving tools that have found such widespread
acceptance in the carving community. Tom uses them principally for
finishing and detail work; carvers will find his techniques
helpful.
