This is a really good book if you want to learn how to carve wood.
You can tell that the author has a lot of talent and experience and the explanations were very detailed and easy to follow.
This helped me start my wood carving journey.

I’ve recently become very interested in woodwork and this is an amazing guide on how to carve faces. The amount of talent shown in this book is incredible and everything is explained in amazing detail. Thank you!

This is awesome. Great for anyone that’s trying to improve their carving skills. It’s filled with tips and more information that you’ll need.

My thanks to NetGalley and the publisher, Fox Chapel Publishing, for letting me read and review this book by Alec Lacasse, ‘Carving Faces in Wood’.

Being a woodcarver who tries to create faces (eyes, noses, and mouths) in my characters, I really appreciated the tips and techniques in this book, provided by the author. To be able to create the detail that he describes is a goal of mine.

I also appreciated the three projects that he offers with some step-by-step instructions. These illustrations were very useful for a hand-carver and for larger carvings that include lifelike faces.
