Upland Game Bird Carving displays all the talent and creativity of Rosalyn Daisey and makes it available to other carvers. In easy to follow step-by-step instructions and illustrations the reader will be able to learn the methods of creating these fine and beautiful sculptures. Beginning with accurately detailed plans the techniques of carving texturing painting and mounting are explained with exquisite photographs and drawings. The book includes five carving projects. The male mourning dove is a particularly fun project not only because the bird has opened wings but also because it is lighted from within the branch of the piece. Its base is a sculpted shadow of the bird in flight. A perched dove a female is one of Rosalyn's favorites because of the elegance of the dove itself.
