The use of wax, paper, clay and other materials to prevent the effects of heat, fire, smoke, chemical reactions, colours and glazes from altering or contaminating the surfaces of work is very popular with ceramicists. However, learning to use these techniques can be a long and frustrating process, particularly when complicated by considerations of the state of the clay and which form of glazing is to be used. In this book, Peter Beard discusses the techniques of masking and resist and gives guidance as to how best to use various materials and firing method to achieve a wide range of finishes.
Peter Beard is a well-known ceramicist who lectures both in the UK and abroad and is a fellow of the Craft Potters Association. In 1996 he won the Inax Design Prize and in 2002, the Silver Medal in the International Biennial of Ceramic Art in Vallauris. His work is held in many art collections and is featured in a large number of ceramic books.
