Synopsis
Step-by-step instructions, illustrated by photographs, guide wood-carvers through the process of carving fish and pond life. Fish carving offers the carver the same challenge for fine detail and form that bird carvers have known for years, along with an endless variety of species and poses, which leaves much room for creativity. Wood-carver Richard Roth leads the carver through three fish and pond life carvings: the Brook Trout, the Pumpkinseed, and a Northern Painted Turtle. He uses a combination of power carving, traditional carving, and woodburning to bring life to his carvings. His painting techniques add the final touch of realism. Each step is clearly illustrated with a photograph and a description of the technique. Painting sections are illustrated in full color with color palettes. In all, this in-depth guide includes over 800 step-by-step photographs plus drawings and palettes. While challenging to the novice, this book makes the carving of fish and pond life an enjoyable, fulfilling adventure., "The art of fish carving has experienced a rapid growth of popularity and appreciation over the last few years. There are probably lots of reasons for this. My own interest came from a love of nature and the beauty of these creatures.
