Building on the success of her previous Ceramics Handbook Paperclay, pioneering artist, researcher and teacher Rosette Gault explains how potters and clay sculptors can make, fire and use paperclay. In addition to the basics, she introduces more advanced techniques for building armatures, sculpting figures and making works for the wall.
Discover the world of possibilities offered by paperclay with basic and more advanced techniques.
Now firmly established in the ceramics world, paperclay is a vital part of the modern clay artist and potter's repertoire. The workability of this material allows expressive freedom and imagination at every stage in the creative process, from wet to dry. Paperclay, made with new or recycled paper, is remarkable for its flexibility, unfired strength, and the ease with which it can be repaired, and allows the creation of beautiful finished forms.
