Phil Rogers
He is content to work within the larger world tradition of producing solid, well-made vessels that bear a more subtle mark of creativity than the idiosyncratic works of more overtly individualistic ceramists. Whereas there is a movement in studio ceramics artists to treat clay either as a convenient medium for sculpture or as a three-dimensional canvas for painting, Rogers has made his mark with an integrated approach to ceramic art: clay, form, glaze, and decoration all combining to create a harmonious whole." "This book, with an in-depth interview with the artist, and full-color illustrations throughout, will allow the reader to appreciate the historical context and profound beauty of contemporary fine art pottery."--BOOK JACKET.

Throwing is a skill that many potters seek to master. It requires patience, time and lots of practice. In this book, the author takes the reader through the basic principles of throwing. With the help of step-by-step illustrations, he demonstrates how to make a wide range of pots, from the simple bowl to the more complex forms of teapots and jugs, including lids and spouts. Rogers also discusses the aesthetics of pottery, encouraging readers to assess design and develop personal style as well as recommending places to see examples of fine quality handthrown pots.
