Radiant Mandala Diversity!
This is my second mandala book after Mandala Fun. I called it Radiant Mandala Diversity because the colors radiate since they are very bright. I designed diverse mandalas in this book, for example the Swiss and the Canadian mandala. Since it was autumn when I designed the book I collected leaves for an autumn mandala. Furthermore I designed mandalas for each of my siblings and my nephews family who are all full of light! In my dreams I got hints on how to draw mandalas when I ran out of ideas. While designing a mandala it turned into something unexpected without my effort, like for instance the white butterflies. Also I designed a Brazil mandala; Brazil is of importance to me because my uncles family lives there and I visited them in 1970. The book also includes a Ganesha mandala. In Hinduism Ganesha is the one who removes all the obstacles. Just like in my book "Mandala Fun" I added photos that I took, 33 in total (in "Mandala Fun" over 170 photos). The photos were taken in Switzerland and Canada: Lake Moraine, Peyto Lake, Canyon in Jasper, Takakkaw Falls in BC, Banff. Additionally the book includes animal pictures: Skunk, gophers, horses and a dinosaur from the "Green 80" park in Basel. I hope all of you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed making it!
Mandala Utopia
This is my sixth mandala book and I hope, that you like it! Like the title says it is utopian! I put in angels, Pegasus, unicorns as well as some Indian inspired mandalas! Additionally, I added some photos of my trip to Switzerland in September 2016. The pictures were taken in Basel and the Laufental. As usually I captured beautiful flowers as well as the ferry crossing the Rhine in Basel. I went to the flea market in Basel with my daughter and saw some funny motives there! I wish you a lot of fun while coloring and I hope that you will enjoy this book!
Mandala Magic
This is my fifth mandala book. I hope you like it!I included nature photos of my book 'Rocky Mountains 2016' with landscapes, animals and flower images! The mandala 'Naughty Lukas' was inspired by my grandson Lukas. Last time he visited, he hid my cell phone!These are the twenty magical mandalas included in this book: cross with beams, chakras, elephant with flowers, jewels, colorful circles, circles, fish, naughty Lukas, hot air balloons, Indian mandala, Indian flowers, lotus, mosaic cross, field of flowers, pyramids, cross, sea urchins, spider net star, star magic, universe. I wish you lots of fun!

Model Dioramas Handbook
"Model Dioramas Handbook is a brave attempt to bring a very broad, potentially complex topic to a general audience. Recommended for readers with a mildly casual interest in diorama building." - AMPSDioramas are invariably associated with scale models, providing a setting or background for a completed kit, though arguably the scenery and buildings on a model railway layout is essentially, a very large diorama. The techniques and materials used are much the same whether you wish to create a landscape through which the track of a classic English branch line will run or a smaller base displaying a Hawker Hurricane being readied for take-off, a Panther tank stuck in the mud of a battlefield or a Monte Carlo Mini in the snow.This book shows how you can create interesting dioramas irrespective as to what you are modelling. It looks at the materials required for building dioramas, primarily tools, paints and glues. Similar skills and techniques are required to create everything from simple bases that contain only a few items, to larger structures that need far more work and effort in their creation. It covers the materials that can be used to create earth, vegetation and water - from seas and oceans, to what you may find in a bucket. It also deals with landscaping, creating a miniature world as the setting for your models. The building of specific dioramas as settings for museums exhibits, architectural and educational projects is explored as are forced-perspective dioramas where, though the majority of the elements that make up a scene will be in the same scale, parts of it will not be to create the illusion of distance.Once you have the materials and the knowledge, as the author says in his Introduction, there is really only one rule when it comes to building model dioramas, your imagination.

Kids’ Fun Craft Activities
To the Parents: Crafts are much more than just a way to pass the time - they are valuable educational tools. Activities that are suited to a child's age and level of development can encourage learning in a wide variety of areas, such as art, language, music, science and maths. Craft activities are a good way for children to express their creativity and develop fine motor skills. They can help us understand such concepts as color theory, the alphabet, measurement and numbers, and experience scientific process in a multitude of ways. For example, baking home-made modelling clay to make picture frames involves the changing properties of flour when it is mixed with water, and sticking objects together involves the alteration of glue's characteristics as it dries. These activities encourage children to use their imagination to invent their own entertainment. Making something all by themselves gives them self-esteem, and helps them gain confidence in their own abilities. To the Kids: Crafts are exciting! This book shows you how to make lots of different things to use, to decorate your house, to give as gifts or to show your friends. Choose something you like and have fun making it. Invite friends and family members to make something with you!
