Putting it all together While many artists demonstrate forming or decorating or glazing, Lorna Meaden brings it all together to show how you all three elements work together in order for the final result to be a success. She maintains that a truly utilitarian object is a communication from maker to the user, and that rich ornamentation should and can be a part of our everyday lives. Only when you’re finished with the entire project can you truly appreciate how all the elements add up to be greater than the whole. |

Object lessons Lorna is the consummate teacher—clear, efficient, concise and knowledgeable. As she leads you through six projects, you’ll be able to absorb the information and put it into practice one project at a time. The projects increase in complexity beginning with tumblers and mugs and progressing through to teapots and coffee pots. In addition to the projects, Lorna demonstrates glazing as well as a wedging technique where she blends clays. As a bonus, Lorna adds an encore to each disc showing how she makes scoops and ladles. |

Attention to detail As Lorna demonstrates every step of the forming and decorating process, she discusses the importance of each action and the thought behind it. There’s a purpose for the size and shape of forms and handles, and the decoration needs to fit what you’re making. Lorna’s instructions, based on years of teaching at the university level, will help you make the connections you’ve been looking for in your own pots. |

A journey worth taking
Once you’ve completed the projects, you’ll have a better command of forming pots, inlaying slip decoration, clay prep, using resists, layering glazes and much more. Each technique will influence how you go about the creative process and who knows where you’ll end up? It’s a journey that’s worth taking. |
