Those who are looking to start using Art Clay (or Precious Metal Clay) will love this book. Advanced workers won't be left behind either. This book does something few books do--it gives instructions for BOTH beginners and experienced gold and silver clay artists.
This paperback has another great advantage: it starts with a list of supplies you will need, closely followed by a list of supplies that make working with Art Clay easier. For the reader, that means that you won't be caught on Sunday afternoon missing some tool you need to start.
And even better, it tells you exactly why you should get one tool over another. For example, Trutty reommends a wood ring mandrel over a metal one. Why? The metal one expands and distorts the ring size. Who knew?
The instructions come with lots of pictures and alternatives. There are basic project followed by the same project but worked in a way that will satisfy people who need a challenge.
What if lacy, intricate projects are not for you? No problem. With the instructions, you can take off on your own and be as intricate or as simple as you like.
It includes fascinating facts on oxidizing, using glass and metals with Art Clay, and techniques and short cuts that make using this clay-turns-to-precious-metal fun and interesting. --Q

MY FIRST BOOK ON PMC, SO NOT MUCH EXPERIENCE. HOWEVER, SHE MAKES IT LOOK LIKE A NOVICE CAN DO THIS. LOTS OF SUGGESTIONS WITHOUT SPENDING A LOT ON TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT. I ESPECIALLY LIKED THOSE TIPS. NICE PICTURES WITH PRACTICAL ADVICE.
