Omschrijving

THE PRACTICAL POTTER

Step-by-step techniques, 30 projects and inspirational examples, shown in 800 photographs

Josie Warshaw

- How to create your own beautiful ceramics, with practical step-by-step instructions.

- Six how-to sections cover design; handbuilding; making and using moulds; throwing; glazing and decoration; and kilns and firing - each including an inspiring gallery of work by contemporary ceramic artists.

- Over 30 projects explore the fantastic 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.

- Explains all the basic pottery techniques, such as pinching, hollowing, coiling, slab building, extrusion and clay relief.

Working with clay is tremendously satisfying, with enough possibilities and variations to fill a lifetime of imaginative discovery. This book explains all the main methods for both novices and experienced makers wanting to improve their skills. Each chapter features step-by-step explanations, brought to life with examples of contemporary work. Ideas include 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.
