Average Customer Ratings:
With classes in more than ten media, instruction by only the finest practitioners, and an atmosphere of friendly exchange between artists, Penland is the place for crafters to improve and broaden their skills. Here, ceramists will discover technical and inspirational resources from the masters that will carry their art to new levels. Each Penland professional represented specializes in a particular technique or method; photographs show them working, as well as feature their art. Expressly for this volume, they have written accompanying essays and chosen pieces by other artists to complement their own. Clara “Kitty” Couch fashions deeply glowing coil built vessels; Angela Pozo’s lively tiled mosaics shimmer with color; Michael Sherrill builds beautiful sculptural objects that hold layer upon layer of color as texture. There are others who do mold-making and slip casting; majolica; wheel-thrown forms; slab reliefs; and much more. This is one book that will never leave the studio!

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
a great addition to my collection -
This book is packed with wonderful information for anyone interested in works of clay. Lark books are known for wonderful pictures and this one is no exception. But more than just pictures this one is full of information about building, glazing and many clay techniques- this may be one I might need 2 copies of, 1 for me and 1 for the class- (some pictues are not for my ms students- I'll need to do something about that)

Excellent Resource -
This is a great overall book on ceramics. It covers a variety of work,methods of making and technique. I love being able to read about an artists thoughts on their own work and then to be able to see how they work is inspiring.
This is a true 'master class' in ceramics and may help you add dimension to your own work. I was particularly inspired by the work of Michael Sherrill his methods have me thinking about clay in a whole new way.
