Reviews
"(With) Metal Clay Fusion , you may develop a taste, or a voracious appetite, for metal clay. Metal Clay Fusion is fabulously scripted and well-detailed, written with humor that makes it feel as if Gordon was sitting in your studio for a one-on-one session. (It) is full of gorgeous pieces of jewelry and functional sculptural pieces of art by Gordon himself as well as pieces by leaders in the field today. Although the Metal Clay Master Series of books is intended for intermediate to advanced metal clay artists, beginners in the medium will (also) find that Metal Clay Fusion is an inspiring journey and would benefit by adding it to their library of technique specific titles." - Judy Freyer Thompson, Robert's Real Faux Bone blog "If I had to choose just a few titles essential to an artist's collection of metal clay books, I would definitely recommend Metal Clay Fusion. The book has detailed explanations, ideas, techniques and of course projects you can follow. It gives advice on how-to (and) provides artistic food for thought and lots of inspiration." - Ziva Averbuch, Chicago Metal Arts Guild "You and I both know that metal clay is all the rage right now. What makes Gordon Uyehara's book different than all the rest? He's a master at his art, and one of the most renowned and popular metal clay artists in the world! In Metal Clay Fusion , Gordon covers all the basics and some really cool advanced skills from carving to developing your designer's eye. I always like a jewelry book with great step-by-step photos. The photography is lovely, and the whole book has this beautiful glow and positive feeling. Want to learn how to create an intricate focal bead? Or a ring with a hinged top? These are part of this lovely collection of projects." - Lorelei Eurto
