Relief Carving Treasury presents focused instruction and finished examples for carving shallow, three-dimensional scenes in wood panels. Instructor and artist Bill Judt shares techniques developed from his own work and classroom projects to show how design, tool selection, and carving sequence shape a relief.

Sixteen projects are illustrated with full-color photos and clear patterns. Each entry explains layout, gouge and chisel work, surface texture, and finishing choices, with practical notes aimed at preserving crisp detail in thin panels.

Suitable for experienced carvers seeking new challenges and determined beginners wanting a structured introduction, the volume emphasizes pattern transfer, staged carving, and composition for wildlife, bird, and nautical motifs.

• 16 step-by-step projects with photos
• Detailed carving patterns for transfer
• Practical notes on tools, sequencing, and finishing
