The Art of Metal Clay by Sherri Haab

haabmetalThe Art of Metal Clay by Sherri Haab appears to be an excellent basic reference for people with little experience working with either PMC or Art Clay Silver or Art Clay Gold. It provides me with inspiration and confidence to continue using the clay without the supervision of someone more qualified.

I only question the fact that Haab addresses kiln and butane torch firing methods, but doesn’t mention the fact that you can fire some types of metal clay projects in a flame of a standard gas stovetop.

The photography in this book is excellent and shows off the jewelry and vessels to perfection.

Summary

  • Great reference book for working with this relatively new medium
  • Addresses the basics of metal clay techniques
  • Clear step by steps illustrated with photos
