Making Mobiles

When observing an especially beautiful mobile, beginning artists often think, “Wow, I want to make one like THAT!” If you have stood under a mobile by artist Alexander Calder and entertained such thoughts, this book will help you “make one like that.”

This guide provides practical and encouraging step-by-step instructions for making horizontally balanced mobiles. From assembling the materials and tools through the designing, fabricating, assembly, painting, and hanging stages, you can create your own mobiles, with author and artist Bruce Can Fox at your side the whole time.

Fox's 19 carefully written chapters and 190 color photographs let you see and understand all the stages toward creating your mobiles. He even shows you how to fix a mistake and pack it for shipping. By following Fox's steps and positive attitude, hours of fun and challenge will be rewarded with art you are proud of.
