For studio artists, production potters, students, educators, and
hobbyists who love working with clay, this project-driven guide is an
unmatched teaching tool and a fount of information and inspiration.
Focusing on various surface processes, and encompassing skills ranging
from letterpress and printmaking to drawing and painting, it offers a
wealth of techniques for transferring images onto clay vessels. Graphic Clay
addresses such topics as staining sculptural work, glazing, brush
application, screenprinting patterns on pottery, and slip, drawing,
bisque, decal, stencils, and more. Question-and-answer sessions with top
artists show how they developed their signature method and personal
style-so that you can discover your own!

One of the other great things I got to do at this years NCECA was to get the word out about The Studio Potter. I’m such a firm believer in this periodical that I joined their board of directors last year. It’s been an interesting learning curve figuring out the behind the scenes of a publication. Super interesting to say the least.
If you have yet to acquaint yourself with the journal I suggest you hightail it over to their website and get yourself signed up or at least check out the online sample here.
So I’m also as a board member in charge of the Support Pages of The Studio Potter. What’s that you ask? Well the journal is non-profit and thus doesn’t have traditional ads. Instead they have underwriters.
The Support Pages provide a unique opportunity for makers,
galleries, suppliers and educational institutions to promote and present
their products and programs.
The Support Pages are built into The Studio Potter journal. The Studio Potter monthly electronic newsletter will contain a link to the underwriters’ websites. The Studio Potter website will feature a .pdf of the current and previous Support Pages.
The Support Pages are printed in full color, with production consistent
with the high-quality, exceptional design and printing standards of The Studio Potter.
You can see examples of past underwriters of the journal here.
Anyway, my point in tell you all this is that I encourage you to get in touch with me at [email protected] if you have any questions or if you might be interested in becoming a supporter of the journal through becoming an underwriter for The Studio Potter.
Thanks!
