Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Gothic Arch eBook}

June 21, 2010

I finally uploaded the book I was working on last summer…which has been on hold with all the chaos of moving and remodeling. This eBook is a FREE download and I feel blessed that so many wonderful artists contributed their GORGEOUS art work to make the project possible.

Download the Gothic Arch eBook (you will need Adobe) in pdf format:

Gothic Arches – Exploring the Arch through Mixed Media

Here are just a few of the projects to view in this eBook.


Hope you enjoy…and Happy first day of SUMMER! :)

    Wow, what gorgeous and inspiring pieces!!! You are so very generous to share this with us. I have always "lurked" around the arch challenges, and have never done one, because I felt like I didn't really know how. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful world of arches with the rest of us! :)

    What an amazing job you did Nancy. You are not only a very talented artist but very generous with your time as well!
    The ebook turned out beautifully and I am thrilled and honored to have some of my arches included in it.
    Many many thanks!

    Nancy, it appears as though we may be "neighbors." Well, not TOO close, but I'm over in Lansing and see from your bio note on the ebook you are from Ann Arbor area. Always nice to connect with another Michigan blogger!
