"Here is a collection for pyrographers to use without fear of copyright infringement. Norma Gregory, a pyrographer for nearly 20 years, shares her designs with other enthusiasts for the craft, and has supplied additional elements that can be combined to create hundreds of new images. Her clear text explains the best method for tracing the designs and transferring them on to wood, and gives tips on applying shading and colour, and how to finish the piece. Detailed step-by-step illustrations demonstrate how to create new designs from separate elements, with advice on scale and prespective. The subjects include: Birds; Mammals; Flowers; Herbs; Water life; Farms and cottages; Celtic knotwork." Interior - light toning to edges of pages and to edges of text block, some pages with a very small soft crease at the corners, otherwise clean and tight with no other ownership marks. Exterior - very small corner creases on covers, larger sof crease at bottom corner of rear cover, light rubbing on rear cover. Reprint. Soft Cover. Very Good. Illus. by Norma Gregory..
