An essential guide to the techniques of making and using slips.
John Mathieson has taught in schools, colleges and a prison before becoming a full-time potter. He is a member of the Craft Potters Association and a well-known figure at ceramics events across the UK. He is a regular contributor to various ceramics journals and is the author of Raku.
Fascinating and informative.
