Gives a lot of good info on carving bark, best kind to get, great artwork to use! Now I’ve got to get to work in the hopes that I can one day be just a fraction of the carver of these men. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Favorite reference book for carving cottonwood bark *by S***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 18, 2009* I can't wait for a sequel for this book! The directions are clear, the photo illustrations are detailed and there are many examples of finished works to inspire your own creativity.The very detailed step-by-step demonstration on carving tree bark begins with examining rough bark to determine where your roof line, chimney, steps, etc will be. Specific guidance is given on how to carve roof shingles, doors and windows, how to hollow out the back of the carving, texturing various surfaces into the bark and emphasizing the importance of avoiding drawing straight lines. Cleaning up your carving, the final sanding and finishing techniques are also covered in detail. The book also shows how to make use of natural shapes in the bark and where you can leave rough bark areas to transition from one area in the carving to another.Another demonstration shows how to carve a bark trees from leftover wood.Carving woodspirit faces is lightly covered as are sources for cottonwood bark. FYI, I ordered cottonwood bark from one source (Art Olver) listed in the back of the book. I got amazing 5" thick cottonwood bark from him, carved three whimsical cottages in one piece of wood and won a prize in a local art show. It was so much fun to carve, and frankly, I would not have done it without this book.Definitely an excellent choice if you're looking for a carving book to give to a friend/family member as a gift. Not only does this book inspire a carver to have fun with cottonwood bark, it is an excellent reference book that affected how I carve basswood as well. I'm still getting ideas from it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The bark carver *by M***W on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 7, 2020* It is all about carving mostly bark. I would have liked something more on other forms of wood but it is neat to look at. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/6318766-illustrated-guide-to-carving-tree-bark-releasing-whimsical-houses-woodspirits](https://www.desertcart.de/products/6318766-illustrated-guide-to-carving-tree-bark-releasing-whimsical-houses-woodspirits) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
