This is a colorful and informative book for the plaster artist. However, I was looking for a little more information on tools and possible electric tools that could shortcut some of the labor in creating in this method.
This book offers a quick, inexpensive way of upgrading everyday items along with creating new art pieces. Very good photos and instructions. I would recommend it to anyone, appeals to the crafty person or artist.
has some neat ideas, think I still would prefer to do regular mosaics but may try some of these ideas on some things just to see how it works out.
