Description

Intarsia legends Judy Gale Roberts and Jerry Booher provide all the inspiration and information readers need to cut, shape and piece stunning wood inlay wildlife portraits. The authors explain how to choose wood-by judging its size, thickness, colour and grain-and provide expert instruction in shaping and sanding techniques. Three complete step-by-step projects are provided for creating dramatic raised images of a Bald Eagle, a Wild Mustang, and a Bull Moose. Eleven additional patterns feature a cross-section of North America's most popular wild animals. Wildlife Intarsia, Revised Second Edition also features full-sized patterns and a colourful new photo gallery of inspiring projects.
