From the Inside Flap

This balance is achieved by presenting a range of Making tasks that use step-by-step instructions to guide students through their own creative process. Sample student works and a wide range of works and practices from recognised artists allow students to investigate art-making skills, techniques and processes to find their own inspiration.
