Artist Beware may well be the most important book an artist can own and the most important book that art instructors can recommend to their students. It is a thorough, documented, and highly detailed examination of the hazards of working with art and craft materials, and the precautions one should take to assure good health and safety. The book includes analyses of how gases, vapors, dusts, and fumes can harm the artist, and studies all aspects of safety in the studio, including the care, handling, and disposal of materials, the use of various kinds of protective equipment, and possible physical hazards. Artist Beware covers the following kinds of art: Painting and Drawing, Glass Arts, Jewelry and Enameling, Ceramics, Printmaking, Textile Arts, Photography, Computer Art, Sculpture, Photocopier Art, Woodworking, Art made by children, Metalworking, ... and much more. There is no more complete and authoritative book available for the serious artist and craftsman than Artist Beware.
