Building on the success of her previous Ceramics Handbook Paperclay, pioneering artist, researcher and teacher Rosette Gault explains how potters and clay sculptors can make, fire and use paperclay. In addition to the basics, she introduces more advanced techniques for building armatures, sculpting figures and making works for the wall.
Even after working in the ceramics industry for many years I found many things in this book to be of interest and use. Throughout I found it to be both informative and very thorough in its approach.
The use of paperclay as a sculptural medium is both advantageous and exciting. A very attractive book and one every serious ceramic practitioner should have on the bookshelf.
