Raku, pit and barrel firing are three of the most popular firing techniques in
ceramics. Accessible to anyone involved in this expressive medium, the unifying
theme of these three techniques is the ability to work directly with the fire
to achieve both quick and unique results not available with more conventional
firing techniques.
Raku, Pit & Barrel: Firing Techniques is a collection of carefully
selected feature articles from Ceramics Monthly and Pottery Making Illustrated,
the two most widely read ceramics arts publications in the world. This handbook
is divided into three sections covering each of these popular topics. Within each
section you’ll discover some of the most beautiful work now being produced
in this field, as well as extensive how-to techniques and step-by-step instructions
to help you duplicate the processes in your own studio. |
