Alec Lacasse

Alex LaCosse was hooked on wood carving since his first whittled boot at age 12. Since then, it has been his passion: outside of wood carving (or teaching wood carving), he hasn't done anything else for a living. But he also knows how hard it is t be a beginner. That's why he's dedicated himself to helping others avoid the novice mistakes he remembers. In Carving Faces in Wood, Alex guides readers through the most important tips to set novices up for long-term success. Share his lifelong research, chisel away at the learning curve, and polish off your first carved wooden face sooner than you could ever imagine!
