This book was written to provide the reader with a unique understanding and ability of the creative process, guiding art. My hope is that upon completion, the reader will have gained some insight into their own ability, thereby developing a part of that process which is good. Detailed instruction is included for the completion of a professional three dimensional metal sculpture. Included, are short stories relating to my own positive, personal philosophy, to help guide the reader through possible "artist block", and continue with the creative process. (Small excerpt) "Upon understanding the reality of his situation, Ian realized his confusion was nothing more than that, a misperception on his part. He understood the meaning and mystery behind his own illusion."

Unique Concept,
By Varalakshmi (India) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Metal Sculpture & The Mind of Art (Paperback)
Craig Evans has dedicated his book "Metal Sculpture and the mind of art" to the reader. "May you find your creation ". It is a unique gesture. What follows is unique too. The book describes precisely and exhaustively the creation of metal sculpture. Of particular interest is the care the author has taken to include safety measures. The observations on art and creativity are touching some chord in the reader. Yes, I would like to "take one idea, and bring it to life" (i.e.), I'm inspired to write my first book. Thank you Craig Evans.
