Product Description

This work draws together historical and contemporary information, inspiring images and technical advice on painted ceramics. Brenda Pegrum discusses colour and the nature of ceramic glazes applied both without and with a glaze, describing traditional ways of painting imagery on pots, which are still in use today, and looking at painting's abilities either to enhance or contradict ceramic form. Through work by ceramic artists past and present, the author encourages the reader to explore and experiment. Illustrated in colour, the book should provide inspiration to potters at all levels of expertise, and be useful as a reference for collectors of old and modern pottery.
