...will provide both inspiration and practical information for decades to come.
The conversations and images contained in this book demonstrate that artists have a facility for taking ideas, methods and techniques from the past and renewing them in unexpected ways.
– John Seed, The Huffington Post
McLaughlin and Crowell have given cold-wax artists (and artists-to-be) an enormous gift. Impossible to imagine a book that could be more comprehensive, thoughtful, careful, and generously written and presented.
The authors’ advice and experience–along with the work and words of over 100 artists from around the world–will strengthen your work and studio practice, suggest exciting new directions, and support thoughtful self-critique.
And because readers also want clear information and direction for working with cold wax, large sections of the book are devoted to important practical information, including: materials, detailed lists of supplies, studio setup, illustrated how-to sections, and in-depth discussion of procedures.
The book’s many images—which include paintings, collages, combines, prints, and even sculpture—provide artistic inspiration and illustrate the diversity of ways artists around the world are using cold wax medium. There are quotes, recipes, and tips from many of the artists, as well as a final chapter that focuses on the reflections of a selection of key artists.
