Carving  Traditional  Woodspirits with Tom Wolfe cover

A wood-carving guide book on carving traditional woodspirits
 
Master carver Tom Wolfe provides step-by-step instruction on carving woodspirits in the traditional Bavarian way. The woodspirits are carved from a section of a tree, with the branch forming the hat. Of course, Wolfe brings his own inimitable style to the carving, making it lively and creative. 

  • The guide takes carvers step-by-step through the carving process, which is illustrated via full-color photographs.
  • While there can be no pattern—each woodspirit is unique because it springs from a unique piece of wood—the technique and the sequence of carving can be easily learned through Wolfe's instruction. 
  • A gallery of several woodspirits will give the carver many ideas about the variety and variations they can obtain when they release the Spirits from the Wood.

​Wolfe's books on carving have been popular for decades, appealing to everyone from the newest learner to the most seasoned veteran because of the simple methods and obvious enjoyment Wolfe brought to his art. This book is a must-have for the library of any carver.
