Product Overview
Calling all woodcarvers! Now you can make caricature pins and bolos now that they are as much fun to carve as they are to wear and give as gifts. Gary Batte offers 65 patterns that are ready to carve with color photographs of completed pieces, step-by-step instructions, and even painting advice. There are only a few tools needed. Batte is recognized in the carving community for his unique and creative caricatures. He had designed caricature pins and bolos to convey that same humor in a smaller size, perfect for men and women to wear. These beautifully designed pins and bolos are great for any occasion and are perfectly proportioned to wear on a jacket, blouse, cap, or scarf. A Christmas mouse wears Santa's cap before rummaging through gifts, an Easter chick hatches from a vividly colored egg, and a heartbroken Valentine beams with joy. Perfect for beginners and fun for experts, there are only a few tools necessary for these projects. Many of the pins and bolos may be carved with just a knife. Gouges can be used to create finer features
