No other topic lends itself to relief carving quite as well as a landscape. Here in her first book for Fox Chapel Publishing Company, author and relief carving artist Susan Irish shows you how to create exquisite relief carved country landscape scenes.

You'll start with the basics, including an in-depth lesson on how to render various barn building materials, how to make basic relief carving cuts and how to choose a wood for your project. Then Susan takes you step-by-step through carving a country landscape. You'll learn:

- how to map out levels in a pattern
- how to trace pattern levels onto the blank
- how to work roughed-out levels
- how to carve texture for foliage and buildings
- how to create three-dimensional foreground elements
- and how to dry brush your finished carving with oil paints.

Susan rounds out the book with 32 landscape patterns for you to carve as is or to alter to your own inspirations. You'll find old country barns with cupolas and silos, stately country homes, beautiful churches tucked into scenic valleys and rustic mills reflected in still pools. More than 20 of the patterns include a pencil drawing to aid you in planning the layers of your project.

Whether you're a beginning relief carver or an experienced relief carver searching for a new topic, Landscapes in Relief includes something for you.
