Visual Arts Practice and Affect brings together a group of artist scholars to explore how visual arts can offer unique insights into the understanding of place; memory and affect. Each contributor highlights the crucial role the creative arts play in envisaging new perspectives on the making of meaning; ones that are grounded in the practicalities; materialities and embodied knowing of artistic practice. Art offers other ways of seeing; thinking; understanding the world. It can be very messy; very challenging; but also moving; exquisite; astounding. The book opens a space for experiential appreciation by offering a writing that allows both the writer and the reader to consider those sorts of embodied sensibilities

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. AWESOME book!By Catherine TaylorIm loving this book!! Chapter 1 is a list of needed tools supplies with a short explanation of the tool capabilities. Chapter 2 is about Techniques which one needs to really develop by practicing and making practice samples on less expensive metals to fine tune the technique process prior to making anything. Without good techniques your metalwork will look like a hot mess instead of adorable like the illustrations in this book. The Necklace projects start on page 63. My favorite is "Adventure Awaits" on page 76. Chapter 4 is about Bracelets and staring on page 95. My favorite is the "Butterfly Bangle" on page 122. Chapter 5 is Rfngs Earrings starting on page 135. My favorite being the "Aim High. Aim True" earrings on page 145. The project photographs are very colorful and clear. Instructions are well understood. Its a great and adorable book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. (Happy Hour Projects) I thoroughly enjoy it have learned so muchBy crazycatladybjI have been following Adriennes blog for several years now. (Happy Hour Projects) I thoroughly enjoy it have learned so much. She has been very friendly and helpful to me as well. She has even helped me with the contests when I dont understand the computer lingo. So I felt I should support her when she put out her book. Well let me assure you- this book is well worth the $. Easy to follow understand directions. Great. clear photos. I am so happy with this book. I honestly feel I can do quality stamping with all the tips in the book. And at 57 Im sure Im not her target demographic. So rest assured you will be happy with this book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Ar SchnellerGreat book
