Customer Review: I am slowly purchasing every book in this series. I am a working artist and use photos to stimulate creativity for myself and my students. All of these books have been wonderful.
Customer Review: EXCELLENT review of many techniques, styles and approaches to clay tiles. Well presented with very good reproduction. A great addition to any potter or artists library. Expanded technical data would make this edition even better, but I still rate it a "9"...
Customer Review: This is a great book for both technical instructions on how to accomplish a variety of techniques and dozens of beautiful pictures displaying how other skilled artists bring variations to the theme. The book is based around a variety of techniques that are useful for intermediate and advance... more info

Customer Review: I think the author did a very good job explaining some basic techniques, but there has to be more you can do with PMC than this.

Customer Review: Just like the title indicates--it is a great selection of ceramic animals by contemporary artists. There is everything from realistic to bizarre interpretations of domestic, wild and farm animals, even includes a few bees. Like other books in the Lark ceramic "500" series, it is not a "how-to" book... more info
Customer Review: I'm a potter. I love Lark books and refer to them often for ideas and techniques. I was looking forward to this book and pre-ordered it several months ago. It arrived today and I have to say I was very disappointed with it. It's not a bad book but I found it uninspiring. There's really nothing new... more info
Customer Review: I am so glad I bought this book! It has so many illustrations and gives clear and easy to understand directions on how to build different types of kilns. I hope we will build our own raku kiln! The other techniques in the book were so interesting, I can't wait to try them!
