Caricature Beer Can

Inspired by Floyd Rhadigan’s “Caricature Beer Bottle” article

(

WCI

Spring 2012, Issue 59),

Debra Jakel

of Montgomery, Ala.,

carved a special beer can in honor of her dad, Hank, and her

uncles. The men, who call themselves “The Saints,” enjoy drinking

beer (from a can) together at family events. A career artist but new

carver, Debra learned to carve from Carole Jean Boyd.

Juniper Man

When a friend gave

her a couple of juniper

limbs,

Kathy Robbins

of Prescott Valley,

Ariz., turned them

into mountain men.

This one is 17 

" tall,

including the base.

Layered Relief

Paul J. Reinhart

of Tiffin, Ohio,

creates relief carvings by carving

two or three layers separately and

attaching them to complete the

image. Not only is his method

easier than carving the image from

one piece of wood, said Paul, but

“doing one layer at a time gives it

a three-dimensional look which

enhances the shadow lines.”
