Product Description
Turn the earth under your feet into natural, cheap, beautiful art: African-inspired murals, fanciful playground sculptures, labyrinths, sundials, sculpted benches, bird houses, & more a complete illustrated how-to guide to mud, art, & community. Inspiring stories & color photos from earth-artists here & abroad for teachers, parents, activists, builders, artists, & other kids. Here is inspiration and instruction for anyone interested in making beautiful art out of earth. The author of Build Your Own Earth Oven teaches you to find, mix, and sculpt the right mud; develop group goals and vision, and translate simple, natural (and easy to draw) patterns into sophisticated and complex designs. The resulting murals will transform anonymous "spaces" into real places. Or make "garden art" you can sit on (or in). Get inspirated by earth artists across the country and over the sea. Extensive resources for further study. Join them all in making art to help "join us, harmoniously, to a whole." Brief, elegant, wonderfully and generously illustrated with drawings and 32 pages of colour photos, and very affordable.

Mud Manual Very Good
10 July 2006
Format:Paperback
This is a small informative book about many great projects made out of mud. I have not tried the projects yet but am planning on getting my hands in some clay soil very soon. The descriptions, instructions and pictures are clear and easy to follow.
