Tom Wolfe Carves Woodspirits and Walking Sticks (Schiffer Book for Woodcarvers) - Softcover
Legend has it that the forest of the world are inhabited by elusive creatures known as "Wood Spirits." Tom Wolfe finds them everywhere and brings them to life in this delightful new instructional book. Using found wood such as driftwood, roots, and old beams from dilapidated barns, he leads the reader through the carving of wondrous, fanciful faces, that are both enchanting and beautiful. On a smaller scale, Tom also finds the Wood Spirits in walking sticks, creating treasures that are handsome and functional at the same time. Tom has been carving these Spirits for years, and they are constantly in demand. Now he leads the carver, step-by-step, through their creation, each step illustrated in beautiful color photographs. An extensive gallery is included, jam-packed with examples and ideas for the reader's own work.

THE AUTHOR: Tom Wolfe is a native of West Virginia who, after many years at Myatery Hill, North Carolina, now lives and works at West Jefferson, North Carolina. His new shop is called Tom Wolfe's Mountain Meadow Studio. Tom began carving at the age of twelve and was soon creating unique walking sticks carved with the image of wood spirits with long beards and magical expressions. The magic continues and grows. With each of his twelve carving books to date, Tom Wolfe has become more popular among carvers. This is because of the clear, easy way he teaches and the delightful figures he creates. 250 colour photographs 8 1/2 x 11" Tom has been carving these Spirits for years, and they are constantly in demand. Now he leads the carver, step-by-step, through their creation, each step illustrated in beautiful color photographs. An extensive gallery is included, jam-packed with examples and ideas for the readers own work. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
