Weekly Review: Concrete Handbook for Artists



There are many materials that can be used for jewelry and other artistic ventures. Many of these materials, such as concrete, require some research and education in how they work. This is where a book such as Concrete Handbook for Artists comes in. Written by Andrew Goss, this is a thorough technical book about many aspects of concrete, how it works, and how to best utilize this material for artistic pieces. This book is highly recommended by members of Etsy Metal.

Thanks for posting this Catherine. I have been wanting to try working with concrete but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Thanks for mentioning my book. I also have a blog called ArtConcrete:

and have a GoogleGroup with the same name:
http://groups.google.ca/group/ArtConcrete
Most members of the group are interested in concrete sculpture, but I do encourage jewelers to join and ask questions and contribute.
