Written for the general reader with an interest in ceramics, Handbuilt Cera mics is a big, colorful, and complete how-to manual for shaping clay withou t a potter's wheel. Features 8 projects, complete with materials lists, cle ar step-by-step instructions, and detailed "how-to" color photos. Editorial Reviews From Library Journal For those who equate pottery with the finely turned symmetrical products of the potter's wheel or the slip mold, the creative variety of hand-built ce ramics is truly astonishing. Triplett offers a guide to basic techniques, f rom pinch pots to slapwork, with color illustrations of tools and technique s and instructions for eight projects of planters and pitchers. Tending tow ard the colorful and whimsical, these projects are a delight to see, but th eir placement cuts into the practicality of the book; the instructional ill ustrations almost get lost in the profusion of pictures. Still, this is a g ood guide overall to the topic. Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
