Scots In The Usa And Canada, 1825-1875. Part Two, Vol. 2 »

Creativitree takes the artistically minded behind the scenes to reveal how Tony Matthews designs some of his family tree art and, more importantly, how you can create family tree designs that have meaning for you and your family. Written in the author's unique folksy style, Creativitree leads you painlessly from a blank page to a complex (or simple) family tree design of your own choosing. Tony clues you in on what kind of paper to use, what pens and markers you'll need, and any other supplies that go into creating a frameable family tree. Soon you will be experimenting with all manner of rectangles, curves, flowers, birds, butterflies, trucks, computers--you name it--samples of which are right in the book. In fact, once you get the hang of it, you may find yourself reproducing your tree on a coffee mug or tee shirt, sending the design over the Internet, or printing genealogy Christmas cards.
