Open this second volume of Championship Carving and aspire to duplicate the winning carvings inside. The 1985 and 1986 Ward Foundation World Championship Carving Competition bird sculptures are documented in this large and profusely illustrated volume. The Best in World title is bestowed each year to bird carvings in the Decorative Lifesize, Floating Pairs, and Miniatures categories.

This book beautifully presents the winners and competition entries through color photography and a supporting text that identifies and personalizes the artist-carvers. While wildfowl art has grown to be an enormously popular field in the last ten years, the competition for Best in World has become keen and supports professional, amateur, and novice categories. You will see inspired by these examples of beautiful and original art, and the underlying reverence for nature's own art that these people share.
