Reader reviews for The Art of Simulating Eagle Feathers

From the publisher

Another coup for Eagle's View and You!! Nobody else has anything like this fantastic new handbook!! It is the only full color, instructional manual which teaches crafters how to create realistic imitation Golden and Bald Eagle feathers that can be legally used in all of their projects. Noted craftsman and educator Bob Gutierrez shares more than 20 years of experience in creating these marvelous works of art. Explanatory photographs and written descriptions of each and every step required, from feather preparation through each step in the painting process are provided. These same techniques can, of course, be used to create simulations of other predatory species, which are also protected by law. Simple tools, easily obtained materials and a desire to create beauty are all that are needed to get the most out of this book. These feathers are perfect for traditional or contemporary Indian arts and crafts projects and may be created for use in headdresses, bustles, roaches, scalp locks, dream catchers, wall hangings and to decorate almost any project.

The book begins with a list of materials used and pictures showing the anatomy of a feather. The author then explains how to straighten feathers, again with photos of how this is done. Mixing the paint and step by step descriptions and photographs of how to paint an Immature Golden Eagle tail feather follow. Detailing and finishing the feather to look as authentic as possible is described in the next series of pictured steps. The book then continues on to describe the characteristics of the various phases of Golden and Bald Eagle feathers and how to create realistic simulations of Intermediate Golden Eagle feathers, including how to air brushthe feather for additional realism. Next are Mature Golden Eagle Feathers and Immature Bald Eagle feathers. Finally, there are pictures of feathers created using the techniques described in this book.

An instructive and interesting book that is a must for everyone interested in Native American arts and crafts. 32 pages in Full Color. Don't miss out on this unique book!!
