- Turn the earth under your feet into natural, cheap, beautiful art: African-inspired
murals, fanciful playground sculptures, labyrinths, sundials, sculpted benches, bird
houses, & more.
- Complete illustrated how-to guide to mud, art, & community.
- Inspiring stories & color photos from earth-artists here & abroad.
- For teachers, parents, activists, builders, artists, & other kids.
Here is inspiration and instruction for anyone interested in making beautiful art out of
earth. The author of Build Your Own Earth Oven teaches you to find, mix, and sculpt the
right mud; develop group goals and vision, and translate simple, natural (and easy to
draw) patterns into sophisticated and complex designs. The resulting murals will
transform anonymous "spaces" into real places. Or make "garden art" you can sit on (or
in). Get inspirated by earth artists across the country and over the sea. Extensive
resources for further study. Join them all in making art to help "join us, harmoniously, to
a whole." Brief, elegant, wonderfully and generously illustrated with drawings and 32
pages of color photos.
