Thanks amazon!!! about me:www.geocities.com/pushadolls
- This book, received as a gift, is one of the finest and most enjoyable art books I've read (in several decades of reading books on art). It covers the history and technique in detail - along with the behind-the-scenes stories and fascinating intrigue related to the theatre, the factories, and the courts of the period. The prose is authoritative and lively, and the color plates are absolutely breathtaking. It's exquisitely produced - a coffee table book that captivates all my guests.

1 comments about Shore Bird Patterns (Blue Ribbon Pattern Series, Book 5).
- I carve and paint (at least I make a feeble effort at it) birds. I have hundreds of books and pictures of various birds, shore birds included. Each, in it's own way, is quite helpful, coupled with my personal observations of the birds themselves in the wild. This work is quite good. Excellent scale in provided and the color is quite good. Using this work and others, to pick up more detail, one should be able to work at their peak ability. Recommend this one highly.

1 comments about Power Tool Woodcarving.
- I checked this out from the library, but intend to purchase the book to keep. There are specific projects in here that are pretty well explained and fairly diverse. I used the Icelandic design to make myself a lazy kate (a device to use while plying spun wool) and it really came out well, despite my differing from intent and finishing from the book's suggestions.
There are several other things in this book that would make it an excellent thing to have on the shelf if you are interested in power tool carving (dremel and the like). The wide range of techniques and projects, the specific suggestions about not only what tools to use when but also for what purpose, the color pictures in the center which really bring the projects to life, and the basics in wood carving that you will learn if you undertake a project. I have a million ideas and hope to purchase a more substantial dremel to use in my woodcarving pursuits. This book really helped me through the beginner stages of a new hobby, I highly recommend.
