Produktbeschreibung

Hi folks! I am a Clinical Aromatherapist that understands chemical do and do nots. The mistakes people were making with their recipes on YouTube is what has prompted me to make this book. It covers Armatures, cement & clay recipes with clickable links to YouTube tutorials for each project. I'm not good at making videos but I feel they will assist you. Be mindful of my age. xx

As a child I made Garden Art with my family. At 76 years of age, I decided I needed a new craft. I tried resin work and did not enjoy the smell. Therefore I decided to make garden art. People do not want to add more things to their homes. Often while buying plants, I noticed the joy people had deciding on what statue to put in their garden. I now live in a very small townhouse therefore, I can only make small pieces. With a 65-year gap in making these cement projects, I felt compelled to do a load of research. Sharing is caring. I am sharing my knowledge with you. I pray it helps some folk make some money. It is such a blessing to know in advance the way to make long-lasting art with integrity. I contacted several cement and concrete manufacturing technical departs to gain more knowledge on additives to make the statues stronger and the cement more malleable. I purchased a few pieces at various stages in my life and a few pieces have disappointed me because they did not last for long. It is important to build a customer base of people who trust you, because your statues are strong, and have a personalized touch to each individualized piece.

In this book we will cover:-

1. Small garden art between 4cm (1 and 1/2 inches) to 70 cm (28 inches) in height. With descriptions of building the frames for larger statues.

2. Different cement recipes

3. Different air-dried clay recipes

4. Armature types for each project

5. Setting out your worksheet

6. Lean different approaches to the method.

7. Most of the dos and don'ts to working with cement and air-dried clay.

8. What destroys and weakens cement/concrete.

9. Chemical reactions from additives.

10. The percentages of additives

Autorenporträt

Hi I am part of the Beauty School Books Team of authors that writes training manuals for both Beauty School Books and Beauty Pathways Academy. In 1993 we were also chosen by the Australian government to write the training standards for the Hairdressing and Beauty industry registered training centers. We did such a great job; our Australian government was asked to rewrite the international training standards. Again, I was invited to become part of the international industry training standards. I do not claim to be a great author but have been blessed with being a good teacher. My family started training me in 1950s. When you are trained by people that love you, magic happens. I always try to encourage students to ask questions. Their questions often mean I have not explained that section well enough and I write a new version. It does however, also give me an idea about how well they are practicing each module on friend and family. To read something without trying to perform the skill is only doing half the job. Reading is one of the core activities of study. You need to be able to understand what you read and to be able to recall the main ideas when you need them. You can use the SQW3R method to improve your comprehension, to remember a reading for tutorials, seminars or to review for exams.

This is a wonderful method to get through the theory exams but will mean more when you practice using the physical tools of the trade. Happy Learning comes with practice.
