Ron Ransom Carves An Amish Family

Description

From the Amish country in Pennsylvania, Ron Ransom has been inspired to create patterns and carvings of an Amish family. Six patterns, clear instructions, and color photos guide you in carving a family in traditional Amish dress. Out of respect for their preferences, Ron has left the faces blank.Reflecting the Amish lifestyle, Rons tools, techniques and instructions are plain and simple. When the carvings are complete, painting and antiquing methods are demonstrated as well. A color photo gallery provides a last, close look at these charming basswood carvings. As with all of Ron Ransoms books, the projects presented here will engage the beginner and provide solid bases upon which advanced carvers may add their own creative touches.[AuthorName]By Ron Ransom[/AuthorName][AuthorBio][/AuthorBio][NumIllustration]250+ color photos, 6 patterns[/NumIllustration][CoAuthor][/CoAuthor][SubTitle]Plain and Simple[/SubTitle][ColorPattern]250+ color photos, 6 patterns[/ColorPattern]
