Alice In Wonderland is one of my favourite subjects to carve and this is one of many that I have done but the only one that is this large. Using a old damaged French dictionary L. 32 cm x W.24 cm x D.5 cm and just over 4KG in weight, this book was part of a 4 book set that was about to be binned by the previous owner, no one wanted them, so I decided I would do something with them. Using illustrations from the two different Alice stories ( Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass) from modern books I have created one of the largest book carvings I have created. This carving is one of my longer projects with just over 30 hours of carving to create this art work.
