Wheel-Thrown Ceramics

Don Davis' Wheel-Thrown Ceramics is the first book to properly combine thorough, step-by-step instructions with beautiful photography in an instructional volume that will be revelatory for beginners and experts alike.

Since its original publication in 2000, Wheel-Thrown Ceramics has become a staple for students of ceramics. Inside you'll find detailed information on:

- Tools and materials

- Clay varieties

- Firing techniques

- Centering and "pulling up" clay

- Throwing bowls, plates, pitchers, teapots, and more

Surface treatments and glazes

Each of the 11 guided projects is illustrated with color photographs featuring the work of the author, as well as those of other talented ceramicists. With this book, beginners will be set up for success, and seasoned potters will return to its pages repeatedly for technical tips and inspiration. Wheel-Thrown Ceramics is a must-have for all ceramicists.

Don Davis got an early start working in clay at the Jacksonville, Florida Children's Museum at the age of six. His childhood was spent traveling and growing up in various locations including Florida, Italy, and Hawaii, nurturing a lifelong interest in ancient culture and art. His MFA is from Rhode Island School of Design and BFA from University of Florida. He was a full-time studio potter in Asheville, NC (1976-2001), initial director of Odyssey Center for the Ceramic Arts (1994-1995), university professor of art(1999-2015), and now lives and works in Flagler Beach, Florida.

His works are included in numerous publications, including Handbuilt Ceramics by Kathy Triplet, and museum collections, including The International Museum of Ceramics, Alfred, New York.
