I’d forgotten about this book, which is chock full of beautiful photos of scrimshaw by contemporary artists from the US, Europe, Africa and Russia. Very good instruction for those interested in learning more about the art. For an immediate visual treat, you should see Eva’s site at http://www.evahalat-scrimshaw.com/. It’s in German, but Google does a very good job of translating. You’ll find Eva’s scrimshaws on ivory as well as bone, on display pieces, knives, pool cues and an interesting one created on a hawk skull. Eva’s style is almost photographic with an incredible attention to detail. Eva’s book “Contemporary Scrimshaw” is available via Amazon.com.
