Carving Little Caricatures

14 Wooden Projects with Personality

Pack a punch of personality into small carving projects! Using a precut block and a few hand tools, Carving Little Caricatures is a must-have guide for woodcarvers of all skill levels to learn valuable techniques to add movement and expressive details to a small piece of wood.

Featuring detailed overviews on tools and materials, basic cuts, painting, finishing, and other essential tips, this complete guide also includes 14 unique character designs for small, skill-building carvings.

All projects in this book can be carved with a standard-size piece of basswood, from a Santa and a gnome to a mountain man and more. Caricature projects also slowly progress in difficulty, with each design getting more dynamic and technical, so you can incrementally build your skills.
