Clays and Glazes in Studio Ceramics combines an absorbing text with a wealth of reference material and an abundance of color photographs, providing a clear examination of a complex, often bewildering subject. Suitable for all levels of ability—from beginning potter to expert—it is a lucid, accessible source of information. Nearly 200 color photographs place the subject in vivid contemporary and historical context. Clays and Glazes in Studio Ceramics is an ideal companion to help ceramists of all levels develop confidence and independence in their art. David Scott studied ceramics at the Royal College of Art and has exhibited his work throughout Europe. He has pieces in many collections, including the Victoria & Albert Museum.
