    Seller very easy to work with. Since eBay uses stock photos the book I received was an older edition than the one pictured. Seller was very easy to work with in returning the book. I would buy from seller again.

    Great introduction to relief carving

    Chris Pye is an excellent writer and carver and has tons of experience conveying what it takes to carve well in clear language. This is certainly among the best introductions to relief carving. It covers the basics well and then walks you through two projects. Both are the same fish in low and high relief and then follows up with great ideas for going forward from there. All of Pye’s books are worth searching out. If you can get them for less than $20 you should go ahead and get them. He doesn’t publish a lot of duplicate information like other authors, so it’s worth getting the different ones that cover other aspects in detail. He often refers to his other books for more in-depth knowledge.
