4.0 out of 5 stars Traditional African Designs, July 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Traditional African Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
Traditional African Designs is a book that includes over 200 pieces of clip art from various countries in Africa. The pictures include representations of people, animals, designs, borders, plants and jewelery. I found this book a great resource not only for graphic design and collage projects, but also a great inspiration for jewelery design.

This review is from: Traditional African Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
This book had very few clip art designs that were of any use. The concentrated on some masks but no real designs. The other book had a CD in it and had all the same pictures too. This was a better investment. Wish I had known that before I wasted my money on both books. Neither were very good. Have several Dover clip art books and this was one of the most disappointing.
