Book Description
Bruno Munari was an internationally acclaimed artist, designer, and children's book creator. A contemporary of Leo Leonni, his books have been hailed as "among the most original, inventive and beautiful ever created." Zoo is among his most graphically stunning works. Meet the kangaroo, who is all legs but doesn't know it, the zebra in his striped pajamas, and the humpy camel, who has a seat for you. Young readers will enjoy Munari's bright, bold illustrations; older readers will appreciate his wry humor. From children to collectors, Bruno Munari's Zoo is certain to enchant a whole new generation."Graphic designer Bruno Munari is one of the most inventive picture book creators I know. I have been inspired, entertained, and in awe of his work since I was a graphic design student in Germany more than 50 years ago. And Zoo has been one of my favorites. I am delighted that it is available once again for a new generation of picture book readers of all ages." Eric Carle

Arco Going Back to School: College Survival Strategies for Adult Students

In some ways, the adult returning to college will find the experience much easier than it would have been in his or her youth, to the extent that the "mature student" will wonder why everyone doesn't wait till adolescence is long gone before engaging with lectures and majors and essays and exams. But while the distractions of youth may be fewer, your certainty about the goal greater and pursuit of it more dedicated, there are complications to adult education, and every bit of preparation helps. In fact, thinking it through, reading a book, and working out some of the conflicts in advance is precisely the sorts of things you probably wouldn't have done at age 18.Going Back to School covers the admissions process and student-support services, how to deal with math anxiety and term-paper phobia, and how to handle the fears involved in public speaking and exams, as well as other relevant issues, such as organizing your time, juggling your probably complicated responsibilities, and coping with family while you pursue this new goal. Supportive and soothing, in that it's tailored to the concerns of the adult student, this back-to-school guide offers practical suggestions as well as a reinforcement of the notion that you can succeed as an adult in academe. --Stephanie Gold

Stenciling Techniques: A Complete Guide to Traditional and Contemporary Designs for the Home

Amazon.com
Whether you're thinking about stenciling something simple such as a floral motif around a doorway or have set your sights on turning your bedroom into a medieval castle, this guide will help. Stenciling, we learn, comes from an old French word meaning to sparkle, and the lively projects certainly do. Beyond good coverage of all the necessary basics (equipment, fixing mistakes, cutting your own stencils) and the usual candidates for rampaging stencil artists (walls, fabrics, home decorating accessories), the book offers information on advanced techniques (like airbrushing and trompe l'oeil) and adapting the process to unusual surfaces (ceramic tiles, ceilings, exterior walls). And if you've ever dreamed of becoming a professional stenciler, the no-nonsense advice on setting prices, finding clients, and other tricks of the trade will prove invaluable.Customer Reviews:

Traditional Japanese Stencil Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive Series)

Book Description
Customer Reviews:
Design book based on complex tradition.......2006-07-13
the very best of Japanese textile graphics.......2003-06-02
The stencils included were originally designed for monochromatic printing on cotton textiles but are also typical of the patterns imprinted on deer-skin goods and traditional Japanese wrapping papers. More than any other volume in Dover's generously-sized library of books on Japanese design, Hornung's testifies to the Japanese genius for manipulating a few design elements into subtle and classically beautiful patterns. Some of the patterns are abstract and without specific meaning, but the overwhelming majority are rich in symbolism. Hornung's introduction discusses the most important of these symbolic meanings. However, the usefulness of the introduction is compromised by his failure to number the stencils and then identify for the reader precisely which plates represent each thematic motif.

Traditional Stencil Designs from India (Dover Pictorial Archive Series)
Pradumna Tana , and Rosalba Tana Manufacturer: Dover Publications ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0486251187 |
Customer Reviews:
Nice selection of stencils.......2000-05-16
Nice, but large Indian Designs.......2000-01-17
According to the back cover, the authors travelled extensively in India to collect the designs, copying stencils used by village artisans and Hindu priests. The designs have traditionally been used to decorate the floors of temples, etc, so this is probably why they are so large in scale (usually one design per 8x10 page).
I still found it a worthwhile collection from which to pull Indian designs.
