Description
Geometric string art is created by winding colorful thread around nail heads to develop wonderfully detailed and complex fractal designs. However, without the proper numbered point patterns, it can be almost impossible to recreate. No longer thanks to String Art Magic.
With 20 fun and simple projects, author Rain Blanken brings back the art of geometric dreamscapes crafted in string, nails, and parabolic curves. String Art Magic is not only replete with expert tips and how-to technique, it's a treasure trove of difficult-to-find step-by-step geometric string art patterns. With Blanken's engaging style and easy-to-follow guidance, any crafter can learn the secrets to creating intricate geometric string art while discovering how easy it is to follow these patterns. An expert string artist who discovered the craft as a child, Blanken presents patterns of increasing difficulty to help crafters obtain an understanding of how the geometry behind each design works. By the end of String Art Magic, crafters new to the world of string art will have not only completed some amazing and beautiful art to proudly display, but will also be able to customize designs to create their very own string art patterns.
