When world champion waterfowl carvers talk about early influences on their careers, they usually mention Bruce Burk. Now duck carvers of all levels can improve the quality of their work with guidance from this legendary artist. Decorative Decoy Carver’s Ultimate Painting & Pattern Portfolio, Revised Edition offers a classic portfolio of Burk’s detailed colour patterns and finishing tips and techniques. For carvers who have difficulty in making their own drawings—or those with limited access to live or mounted birds—this book will become a priceless tool in creating award-winning decoys. Inside you’ll find an introduction that includes practical advice on photography, colour, competitions and working with patterns. This is followed by page after page of full colour patterns and detailed paint mixing instructions for 16 of the most popular and beautiful species, including both drakes and hens.
Bruce Burk was a renowned master bird carver who provided the inspiration for thousands of other carvers to get started in the art. Burk published articles on bird carving in North American Decoys, Chipchats, and Ducks Unlimited magazine and was the author of numerous books.
