In “Making Concrete Sculpture,” from Schiffer Publishing, T.J. Neil shares his techniques and recipes for creating giant concrete sculptures.
According to a publisher’s blurb: “This book provides valuable insights into the successful construction of concrete art through text and 371 clear color photos of concrete sculptures, both complete and under construction. A list of required materials and sound advice for procuring and mixing concrete are provided. The wide variety of concrete sculpture subjects portrayed provide artists with inspiration for projects large and small. See fishermen, strong men, mermaids, alligators, dolphins, manatees, frogs, grizzly bears, whales, horses, panthers, cows, sharks, elephants, and even a tenfoot, five thousand pound dragon that hisses three-foot flames.”
