Author: Marc Bellaire

Brush Decoration takes you back in time to a different era when the studio pottery movement was still in its infancy. While most of the examples provided reflect many of the popular motifs of the times, historical and cultural decorations still appear in contemporary work today. In this classic, written by Marc Bellaire and originally published in 1964, you'll discover brush techniques as they apply to pottery making and soon realize that the techniques are indeed timeless.
