Woodcarving | Issue 212
Issue 212 of Woodcarving magazine is filled with a host of great articles for you. Our Guest Editor, Steve Bisco, welcomes you to the issue; and then takes us back through the mists of time with a figure carved from a piece of bog oak.
In our Projects section, Kevin Alviti makes an axe cover for a birthday gift; Dave Western addresses the challenges he overcame carving his yellow cedar mask; Cedric Boyns makes a relief of a dolphin and humpback whale; Zoë Gertner produces a tactile carving of a poppy seed head; John Samworth perfects some tricky limbs with his carving of a spider; Paolo Frattari adds the main features to his carved portrait; and, in an extract from The Whittling Handbook, Peter Benson carves a canine top for a walking cane.
In Techniques, Peter Benson discusses carving faces and how to avoid making mistakes.
In Features, we meet Jonathan Bayes, whose intricate designs are inspired by the past; we showcase entries to the Art of Wood exhibition; and Alexander Thomson gives us a snapshot into the history of netsuke.
We also have updates from the carving community and a peek at our next issue.
