Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Hummingbirds are a favorite subject for carvers because of their delightful form and bright flashing colors. This guide combines information on these birds-their anatomy, habits, and habitats-with a detailed tutorial on how to carve and paint them. Techniques, tools, and wood selection are all covered, as is the creation of the flowers, vines, and branches needed to place them in their natural settings.
