Reviews for Amazing Glaze: Techniques, Recipes, Finishing, and Firing

This book made me fall in love with glaze all over again. With Amazing Glaze, Gabriel has created that rare glaze book that is both thorough and accessible, giving you the information and inspiration you need to spark your creativity. It is a must have for potters that are looking to expand their knowledge of ceramic surfaces and glazes. * Ben Carter, author of Mastering the Potter’s Wheel * Amazing Glaze takes an engaging look at what a glaze is, then why and how to use it, with a strong emphasis on planning ahead. It’s a book that will help many who struggle with the process—it may even encourage a new perspective for those who are in the ‘I hate glazing’ camp. If you find that you approach glazing with trepidation and anxiety that leads to indecision, or if you need more variation, creativity, and spontaneity in your surfaces, Kline's guidance will help you get beyond those roadblocks and find successful, personalized solutions to finishing your work. * Jessica Knapp, Editor, Ceramics Monthly *
