Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the practical applications of art to handwork and crafts, providing teachers and practicing artists with guidance on how to incorporate art into their work.

The book covers a range of techniques and processes, including brushwork design, stenciling, needlework, and lettering. The author emphasizes the importance of geometry in creating effective patterns and designs, and offers numerous examples of how these techniques can be applied to everyday objects, such as cubes, picture frames, card cases, and lamp shades.
