DESCRIPTION:
Excellent book for beginners I loved the book when I first opened it! There are 5 tutorials, step by step, how to create wire art figures. The actual wire sculptures are nothing special, but they are a good begining for someone like me, that touches a wire for the first time and bend it! There are very creative sculpures of the author that are s.th. I like to achive in the future :) I was h. Di West said Eye-candy!. Very informative book and beautiful images. Most inspiring for the novice and the professional sculptor. I don't sculpt in wire but I just love this book as once you see what can be achieved it gives you the drive to try something new. The works are contemporary and charming. Highly recommend this lovely book.. "Not helpful" according to Myriad. I was expecting something with some simple projects perhaps moving toward complexity but this was some rather unimpressive pictures that were not very pleasant to look at. I will sell very soon. Definitely not worth the 20 plus that I paid for it.
