One-of-a-Kind

I am a mosaic artist who specializes in and teaches the tempered glass technique. I refer to this book during my classes. Also, I often hear from people who, for various reasons, aren't able to take my classes. I am happy to recommend Found Art Mosaics to these folks because it is the only book that offers step-by-step instructions on tempered glass projects (a tabletop, and a turtle).

Great book!

I am an experienced mosaic artist and I enjoyed the more advanced projects. I learned an enormous amount and got new ideas for my own projects. The book is well laid out; the instructions are excellent; and the photos are beautiful. I also gave this book to my mother who is a beginner. She followed the instructions, had fun, and created projects that she loved.

A book for all ages

Suzan's book is a wonderful source of information on techniques to incorporate found objects into the mosaic process. The book is clearly laid out with concise steps and instructions (including patterns) for a variety of projects. People of all ages will enjoy the suggestions that Suzan offers for creating inspired mosaics.

Excellent

I liked the way data was presented in sequential steps with information on the various methods of adhesion. Great photos.

An Amazing "How-To" in Gorgeous Mosaics.

This is a very eye catching book. It cries out for page turning from beginning to end. If anyone were to create mosaics without attending any classes this would be the way to go.
