I have seen Joyce Pike in person, painting en plein air. She is now around 90 years of age and her love for art is evident. After seeing her, and listening to her tips, I was inspired to read her book. She provides a plethora of useful information, including tools, supplies, techniques, composition, value, color, brush strokes, and more. She emphasizes planning ahead and limiting the temptation to blend or overwork. This is a great book for anyone who wants to improve his or her artwork.

Banners for All Seasons by Joyce Pike and Anne Robinson. Epiphany Oviedo ELCA library section 6 C: Worship, Symbolism. This book provides designs, patterns and directions for 15 banners that coordinate with the liturgical seasons of the year. In the past year I have collected about 8 books of banner and sanctuary decor ideas that coordinate specifically with the liturgical seasons of the church year. This book’s strengths are its bold, abstract designs that often break the edges of the banners. Its banners lack unity though – they seem to have been designed and made by entirely different people. Lettering is not used in every banner, but it is often weak in design, and difficult to read. This means that some of the banners are more successful than others in terms of design, color and message. There are some good ideas, however, which can be adapted to a particular congregation’s needs.
If you are thinking about constructing a banner check out this book before you begin. It gives some excellent tips about basic techniques, enlarging patterns from the book to your fabric, and sewing and finishing tips. All very helpful for someone who knows how to sew but may never have tackled making a banner before. I rate it a B- for banner books.
