The Complete Practical Potter: A Comprehensive Guide to Ceramics, with Step-By-Step Projects and Techniques - Softcover
Synopsis
This practical, accessible approach to ceramics, with step-by-step instructions and photographs, introduces techniques that form the basic vocabulary for your work Six sections cover Design, Handbuilding, Making and Using Moulds, Throwing, Glazing and Decoration, and Kilns and Firing; each one includes a variety of related work by contemporary ceramic artists Over 30 projects include a diverse range of technical and creative possibilities with clay - from a simple hand-coiled pot needing the minimum of equipment, a wheel-thrown cup and saucer, to a press-moulded plate with printed overlays Featuring the work of over 80 leading international ceramic artists Over 800 specially commissioned colour photographs Working with clay is tremendously versatile, and this book brings a sound knowledge of the main ceramic methods to both the novice and the practising maker wanting to extend their approach to design and technique. Each chapter features a rich array of step-by-step explanations, brought to life with examples of contemporary work. Ideas range from a thrown cup and saucer, a hand-formed interpretation of the human figure, a press-moulded jug with sprigged decoration, and slipcast vessels with the distinctive crackled surface of raku. Accessible and inspiring, the book uncovers both the practical essentials and the creative secrets of working with clay.
