It is difficult to capture the precise combination of colour and tone which accurately renders the lustre of gold, the dull solidity of iron or the gleaming reflectiveness of chrome...[This book] provides exact identification of the qualities of a variety of metals and metallic surfaces through a series of exercises which allow a direct comparison of colour, tone and texture applied to produce the characteristic appearance of different metals."--dustjacket ; Writer and quilt maker Judy Martin graduated from the University of California in 1969.
