Carving the Wood Spirit Face
By L.S. Irish
| For carvers, the Wood Spirit is a wonderful theme to use for
experimentation with new techniques and image ideas. These delightful little creatures
come in an unlimited variety of shapes, styles, and forms. You will find Wood Spirits used
as cane handle ornamentation, free standing statues, and even wall hanging. Wood Spirits combine the human face and nature into one image. Flowing hair may turn into autumn leaves, or a beard may blend into the texture of the tree bark. The physical features of the face become exaggerated. Noses can be long and narrow taking up over three fourths of the facial area or they may be broad and flat, spanning deeply toward the cheek and jaw line. Eye brows can arch high into the forehead and become willow leaves. |
