Art Quilt Workbook: Exercises & Techniques to Ignite Your Creativity by Jane Davila and Elin Waterston
This is a great How To book about how to move your creative side as an artist towards making fiber arts.
I took a collage class with Lisa Thorpe at the Minnesota Quilters retreat and there is a section of this book that totally applies to this.
There is information about copyright and how to avoid violating it in your work, which I have not seen much in books related to quilting.
This is more about the art than the quilting.
There is no instruction on how to piece or sew contained within it, it is all about making your art on fiber--so painting on fabric, dying fabric, printing on fabric, and how to put it all together--with examples from the both of the author's own works--which are very different from each other, so very helpful in the visualization of how it would translate depending on the artist.
Recommended if this is a direction you want your quilting to take!
