Book Reviews of Figure Sculpture in Wax and Plaster (Dover Art Instruction)
Book Review: The basics are covered at last!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the reference books I keep in my studio.It covers techinques on materials that are not covered in other sources. The set up of the book is logical and helps one to understand the materials and techinques valuable to a sculptor focusing on the figure and other forms of expression. So valuable are these techiques as they offer a sculptor the opportunity to quickly create his design with the use of fairly inexpensive materials. i highly recommend this book to anyone serious about sculpture.
