500 "A comprehensive guide to throwing beautiful, functional
pots"--Cover.
504 Includes bibliographic references (pages 234-235) and
index.
520 "Ceramics education is something that is typically taught
in a classroom studio, where a teacher first explains a
series of intricate and subtle movements, and then
demonstrates them for the students. The student then sits
down at a potter's wheel and attempts to replicate the
techniques, but often with less than perfect results. To
help both beginner and more advanced potters overcome some
of the most common frustrations, Simon Leach has picked up
where most classes fall short, creating more than 800
homemade videos available on YouTube that clearly
demonstrate core techniques. Lively, informative, and full
of original tips and techniques, Simon's videos have lit
the ceramics world on fire, becoming a must-see supplement
to most potters' educations. But therein lies the hitch--
most potters don't want to take a laptop into a ceramics
studio, so they must watch the video before or after class
and hope to remember the tip as they work. Simon Leach's
Pottery Handbook is meant to overcome this obstacle,
encapsulating all of Simon's basic techniques in one easy-
to-carry book, from studio design and set-up to basic
throwing techniques, to adding appendages, trimming,
glazing and firing. Simon Leach's Pottery Handbook is
perfectly suited for the studio, as it is portable, and
the concealed wire-o binding will help the book lay flat
and stand up. For each technique, detailed step-by-step
photography captures the subtle, intricate movements that
typically fly by too fast to be noticed in a video. Plus
the book includes a DVD with many of Simon's YouTube
videos; callouts throughout the book tell readers which
video goes with each section, so they can both read and
examine the technique in the book, and also watch the
technique in real-time"--|cProvided by publisher.
