Basic Pottery Knowledge by Jacqui Atkin

This book teaches you everything you need to know to create your own ceramic objects. Clear, step-by-step instructions and numerous photographs vividly explain the most important basic techniques of shaping, decorating, and firing.

Readers will learn about different types of clay and building techniques such as thumb and coil techniques, practice throwing on the potter's wheel, and discover creative ways to decorate surfaces. Numerous projects—from hand-built vases to marbled boxes with transparent glaze—invite them to put their newfound skills into practice.

The author, Jacqui Atkin, has taught ceramics at universities for many years and incorporates her experience from practice and occupational therapy into this comprehensive foundational work.
