The Complete Pebble Mosaic Handbook

Comprehensive, inspiring, historical, and practical. I'm so happy to have gotten my hands on this book.

If only I could study with this master of all masters of stone mosaics! She is an inspirational, brilliant mosaic artist. This book makes one want to order truck loads of stone and do nothing but re-do your driveway, walkways and beyond. Lots of wonderful photos. Close ups. Wonderful explaination. Photos of mosaic works from around the world. Ordering her other book as soon as possible.

This book contains spectacular photography through-out: both photos that highlight the artistry of finished works and the close-up, clear, work-in-progress photos that highlight techniques for successful projects. Accompanying text is very readable, and contains a wealth of information about pebble mosaics. I bought the book for the photographs, but was also fascinated by the information about the people and communities that came together to create stunning mosaics to enhance public spaces in their towns.

Good overview of pebble mosaics with very helpful information on materials and techniques. The book also has good examples of works by professional mosaicists in the field of pebblework.
