Throwing clay : the art of making pottery on the wheel

Proctor, Rebecca2026
Books
While a potter shaping clay on the wheel is both the iconic and familiar image we associate with ceramics, the skill is notoriously hard to learn. Using step-by-step photos and illustrations, Rebecca Proctor shows you how to master the potter's wheel. With an emphasis on craftsmanship, 'Throwing Clay' demonstrates the specific techniques required to make a range of elegant modern tableware - mugs, jugs and plates as well as vases and more complex forms such as teapots. In addition, Proctor shares her insights on the art and practice of pottery and conducts interviews with other contemporary makers from around the world.
