Description:

“This book made me fall in love with glaze all over again.”
—Ben Carter, author of
Mastering the Potter’s Wheel

Join author and Odyssey Clayworks founder Gabriel Kline on a journey that makes glazing pottery less intimidating and more fun.

Whether you look forward to glazing your work or are guilty of saying “I hate glazing!”
Amazing Glaze is for you. Start in the “glaze kitchen” where you’ll set yourself up for success, then move on to learning the tools and techniques for getting your glaze right every time. Once you know the basics, discover how to take your glazing to the next level with specialized application and finishing techniques. Along the way, Gabriel shares dozens of tried-and-true glaze recipes and combinations. Stunningly illustrated with color photography, this comprehensive glaze guide includes:

  • An introduction to glazing, covering studio safety, tools and materials, the chemistry of glazes, preparing glazes, testing glazes, and various ways to apply glazes
  • Advanced techniques and special topics, including layering with slip and underglaze, working with resists, creating crystalline effects, achieving an elusive red, applying decals, and combining techniques
  • Over 60 glaze recipes (23 high fire, 22 mid-range, 11 low fire, and 7 raku)—refined over dozens of workshops, hundreds of firings, and innumerable tests—from reliable classics to obscure gems, plus recipes for slips, underglazes, washes, terra sigillatas, and more, together forming thousands of potential color and texture combinations 
  • Artist features and inspirational galleries with photos of work from today’s top artists, including Cayce Kolstad, Anja Bartels, Nick Moen, Genevieve Van Zandt, Julia Weber, Molly Morning-glory, Naim Cash, Josh Copus, Linda McFarling, and Tisha Cook

Editorial Reviews

Review

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
