Tired of carving the same old red-faced Saint Nick? Open the pages of Santa Carving with Myron Bowman and you'll find a whole sleigh full of ideas for carving Santa's with a distinctive flair. Myron introduces you to Santa carving western-style with a step-by-step demonstration featuring a Santa who sports a cowboy hat, an ankle length leather coat, boots, and a holster stuffed with a candy cane.

You'll learn how to apply the pattern to the wood, how to rough out the basic shape, how to carve details, and how to paint and seal the finished piece. Special techniques that are unique to Santa carving, such as carving beards and texturing fur trim, are given extra attention in short sidebars sprinkles throughout the text. Myron even includes patterns for 11 original Santas - including a Civil War Santa, Rocking Chair Santa. Prepare yourself for an exciting collection of original Santas to carve.

Includes step-by-step carving and painting demonstrations, 11 patterns, color photos of finished Santas.
