This is a great book to start you off on a mixed media journey of your own. It has projects at the end of each chapter with a full list of material required which is very handy and easily converted to products available here in Australia.
It is a very wordy book, which is a good read to get you you into your own creative head space.
Well worth it if you need a boost and are prepared to read not just look at pretty pictures.
I would recommend it!
An excellent read to inspire and encourage (re) finding your creative spirit. With beautiful photographs and step-by-step instructions for projects to create - or just read to stimulate ideas. Love the biographies and "chats" with featured artists.
This book is a pleasure to read and visually stunning. The projects are a great start to get your creativity off the ground. Besides Roberts herself other artists contribute with projects and insights, which gives the reader a variety of perspectives. If you are keen to explore your creativity through mixed media but not sure where the start, this is definetely the book for you. Happy art-making!
