Nature's Majestic Oaks and Other Leaves

In this series of books by the amazingly talented Ed the “Bear Man” LaBarre you’ll find instructions and patterns for carving and tooling realistic leaves.
Not one for the stylized look of leaves and flowers that he’s seen tooled in leather, and the feeling that there wasn’t much of a resemblance to Nature, Ed took it upon himself to get out there and really study nature to see if he could do better. And it turns out, he could!
In this Realistic Leaves series, you’ll find his patterns to be as true to life as possible while still being able to tool them in leather, along with detailed instructions to do so. From leaf carving and vein structure to project patterns, these books are a leather artist’s staple!
