In this 48 page spiral bound book, Chan walks you step-by-step through carving the flowers, leaves, scrolls and other distinctive features of Sheridan Style Carving. In addition to the step-by-step instructions on carving, Chan also gives you insight into the dyeing and finishing techniques that are most often used with this style of carving. In these pages you will find the introduction you need to get started and if you are already a fan of this style of leather carving, this is a great book to help you hone your skills.
These example plates show the progression of the carving, for both Sheridan and Southwest or Traditional style, starting with the basic tools and ending with some other styles of leaves and scrolls. In each step the tool impressions that would normally be there from the previous steps have been eliminated for instructional clarity.
