The Beginner's Guide to Wheel Throwing

A Complete Course for the Potter's Wheel

Julia Claire Weber

Description

In The Beginner’s Guide to Wheel Throwing, you’ll find all you need to develop the skills (and patience) you need to make your first forms. You’ll start at the beginning of the process with a tour through a typical ceramics studio, a discussion of the best clays for throwing, as well as a variety of centring methods. Then unleash your creativity with the chapters that follow. You’ll find:

  • Starter projects like cups, bowls and plates to hone your skills
  • Tutorials on important topics like trimming and handles
  • A unique decal workshop, unlocking the potential of image transfer

Throughout the book, skill-building is front and centre, with tips and tricks to help you crack the code and make pieces you’re proud of. Gallery work from some of today’s top artists will inspire potters of all levels. What will you make first?
