A Complete Beginner's Guide for Working with Clay
22 Dec 1999
Format:Spiral-bound
When your professor comes over the first day of class and leafs through your brand new book and says, "Where did you get this...it's a great introduction to this class!" then proceeds to tell you he knows some of the potters and works pictured...you know it's a GREAT book. From learning where clay comes from and the techniques from pinching and coiling to the wheel and sculpture, I found great tips and photos to help me along and inspire my "creations." Then came texturing, coloring and glazing and firing techniques. I've actually bought the book as a gift for Mr. Pace (from amazon.com, naturally) and his future students because I found it SO helpful.
Perfect for anyone thinking about working with clay.

This book is helpful if you've never worked with clay or even just to refer to it for clay projects. Worth buying!
