The author also includes illustrations and exercises to reinforce teh importance of light in relief. Information on techniques addresses the skills needed to create beautiful relief work. Includes:
 | Start-to-finish instructions for one relief project |
| Patterns for five additional projects |
| Practice exercises to improve your relief carving skills |
