Fascinating and inspirational
27 July 2007
Format:Paperback
I bought this book out of curiousity, knowing nothing about it except for the short blurb on Amazon. I love it! It set me off on a whole series of mixed media and machine embroidery pieces using circles. I keep it close at hand in my studio and when I feel the Muse is taking an extended coffee break, I dip into it. It taught me to look at the world around me in a different way and I learned a lot of circle related trivia at the same time. It has photographs of everything round from crop circles to man hole covers to logos and everything in between. Truly fascinating!

An inspiration
27 July 2007
Format:Paperback
I was fascinated by this book. I already owned Circles and couldn't wait for Stripes to come out. I thought it would be very difficult to fill a whole book with stripes but the author managed it, finding stripes in unexpected places. It's the sort of book you can just dip into, look at a few pages and then view the world in a different way. There is a good balance between stripes used by designers, past and present, and those found all around us. I learned a lot and found it inspirational in my artwork.
