Produktbeschreibung

We use signs every day - to figure our which way to go, to know if a store is open or closed, to welcome guests, and to mark a room as belonging to someone special, just to name a few. Thanks to author and woodcarving instructor Betty Padden, hand-carving and painting wooden signs has been made approachable for anyone, regardless of skill level. her designs and techniques in the Lettering & Sign Carving Wookbook make it possible for even beginner woodcarvers to learn to carve and paint signs with the 10 skill-building projects. From learning to carve simple cuts into a pre-made blank, to carving more intricate designs and finishing with elaborate painting, your skills will improve with each project. Specialized techniques such as creating custom lettering on a computer, gilding, and more are introduced in later projects. With this book, you will be creating custom signs in no time, to give as gifts, or to add charm to your own home or business.
