Bøker av Jane Perryman

This book deals with ceramic work that does not have a glaze, but instead is finished by other methods such as Burnishing, terra sigillata, engobes, oxide washes, laminating, smoke firing and other methods. The book will look briefly at the historical uses of alternative methods of decorating/finishing work, but essentially will give a chapter to each method, looking at techniques and more importantly the work of specific artists in each field. It will be well-illustrated and a much needed manual on this subject.

Actually a very old technique, smoke firing is used today by ceramic artists across the world in new and innovative ways. This book explains and discusses this firing method thoroughly, using step by step images from artists in action, as well as showcasing the variety of work being made.
