Learn how to carve different types of eyes and lips from master carver Harold Enlow!
It's often said that the eyes are the windows of the soul... But instead of taking the risk of carving an eye, many carvers just paint in the eyes! Lips, too, can say a lot about a person and their mood. Inside this 40-page booklet, Enlow will guide you through the nuances of carving these important but tricky elements of your woodcarvings!
Featuring step-by-step instructions, coordinating photography, and Harold's expert tips, this valuable resource will help you become a better carver. Bring your caricatures to life with expression as you learn how to carve a basic eye, sleepy or drunk eye, angry eye, full feminine lips, and lips with a mustache.
The information inside Learn to Carve Faces: Eyes and Lips Types and Details also constitutes a chapter of Enlow's Carving Faces Workbook. It is also available in the Eyes and Lips Study Stick Kit, provided alongside an 11.5" study stick. (This item is just the booklet.)
From half-open eyes to pouty lips, Learn to Carve Faces: Eyes and Lips Types and Details will take you through every stop cut, gouge cut, and v-cut you'll need to carve important facial features!
Harold Enlow has written twelve wood carving books and teaches 30-35 woodcarving seminars each year. He is a founding member of Caricature Carvers of America and a member of the National Wood Carvers' Association, the Ozark Whittlers and Wood Carvers, and several other carving groups around the country.
