Carving Faces

Written by caricature-carving legend Harold Enlow, this book contains all you need to know to start carving unique faces full of personality. It starts with step-by-step illustrated instructions for shaping the key features that define a face: eyes, mouth, hair, nose and ears, including variations that influence the character or expression of the face.

The second half of the book guides you through the carving of seven complete faces, including a wood spirit, a Native American chief, a cowboy and Santa Claus. Each project is explained with photographs and detailed instructions, and helpful tips drawn from Enlow's decades of experience are interspersed throughout the book.
