Default Primative Animal Carving Pattern

I have seen these fairly primative carvings of animals, a lot of cows
and sheep, but alos a full noahs arc. I have never seen any paterns
for them.

There is not a lot of detail in the carvings, but detail is supplied
thru the paint.

Any ideas where i can find something like this?

I am being told (by the SWMBO) that another name for this style is
Folk Art.

I've seen many middle-eastern carvings done in a similar sytle -
elephants mostly, but I've rarely seen patterns.

Every once in a while, you'll see something like this in carving
magazines, patterns for neckerchief slides, etc, but I can't think of
a particular source.

I suggest that you do a search on google images. That's where I get
study photos for some of my work. If you find something you like, you
could save, print and trace the outline onto your blank.

Another possible source might be the E-bay photos. Search on Wood
Carving - Woodcarving - Carving.

Good luck,
Bill

Look for older carving books by Tangerman, try your local library...there
must be a dozen boks by him, most will have patterns for what you want.
If you can't find any let me know and I'll see what I have.(G)
