COMBO - Carving an Acanthus Leaf on a Cabriole Leg

This combination package includes two lessons:

• Sawing Out a Cabriole Leg
  
• Carving an Acanthus Leaf on a Cabriole Leg
  

This lesson shows the technique of carving a basic acanthus leaf on the knee of a cabriole leg.

In this highly detailed and practical lesson from a classical woodcarver, you see every step so you can develop your own carving abilities. It's one of those lessons you'll want to watch again and again.

This lesson includes:

• Three video episodes in SD resolution totaling 45 minutes running time.
  
• A printable template, tool list and photo.
  

Consider Using a Casting

It is often very handy having something 3-dimensional in front of you to copy while you carve. Being able to see all the “unknown” such as depth, subtle cuts, etc. is tremendously helpful. Photos are not always able to show depth, and quite often shadows create a false illusion of shape. I have a casting available for this lesson at My Store on my Cornerstone Creations site.
