5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring
The work profiled here leans more toward fine art than craft, which is a welcome diversion. Worth the purchase for some really fresh altered book depictions.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice, but too much of a project book
The problem with creating a project book when talking found objects is that I literally can't find the same objects. I just want to learn techniques and make stuff out of what I can find. Still there were many lovely mixed media examples on display in this book.

This review is from: Collage, Assemblage, and Altered Art: Creating Unique Images and Objects (Paperback)
I love this book. My copy is coming to pieces because I refer to it so often. I enjoy it because it is so inspiring, not because it tells me step-by-step how to make anything. Most artists don't want to make exact copies of another artists work anyway. Everytime I look through this book I get energized to go to my studio and get to work!

4.0 out of 5 stars Have only thumbed through, August 22, 2008

This review is from: Collage, Assemblage, and Altered Art: Creating Unique Images and Objects (Paperback)
I have only thumbed through this book so far, but it looks like it has the information I was looking for. I needed to know the basics of assemblage and materials to use and that was explained very well.
Would reccomend this book.
