Since I loved Jackson's THE POP-UP BOOK and his origami designs in various books I own, I decided to try his book on paper sculpting. I was NOT disappointed. The book provides the reader with basic construction information/techniques, 20 creative projects, and a gallery of inspirational/challenging designs. The examples presented in the book run the gamma from the whimsical to the sublime. Therefore, this book would make an excellent resource for art teachers in elementary, middle, or high school.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for the beginner, but lacking for the experienced, February 28, 1998

This review is from: The Art and Craft of Paper Sculpture: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating 20 Outstanding and Original Paper Projects (Paperback)

It is a very good book for the beginning sculpturist, but I found it lacking in technically challenging designs & creations. The Design Gallery at the end is good.
