This collection bundles four essays by Ava Burton which are also available individually.
The Ultra Minimal Home Pottery Studio
If you are tight on space, or tight with finances, this essay is designed to help you develop a ceramic studio minimally. The author, an artist who works in many mediums, describes the most basic pottery studio imaginable. A few clever ideas may help the apartment artist develop a ceramic art sanctuary.
Clay Molds for Warm Glass
Create original clay molds simply and inexpensively for glass slumping. Written for both potters and glass artists, this little book comes straight from the artist’s studio and offers techniques for making glass slumping molds in the potter’s studio. Using either a pottery kiln or glass fusing kiln, free yourself from ready made designs and let your creativity determine your art glass shapes.
Encaustic and Pottery
Encaustic is pigmented wax paint. The author describes how she uses encaustic paints to create rich and sculptural surfaces on her ceramic art. Pottery is perfectly suited to receive hot wax pigments. Ceramic wall art is another opportunity for encaustic painting. If you make nonfunctional clay art, this little essay will tell you how to apply an encaustic “glaze.” Soft and waxy, the surfaces resemble matt glazes and can be applied to ordinary oxidation fired pottery to create unusual surface interest.
Orchid Pots and Ikebana Vases
Both orchid growers, and practitioners in the art of Japanese flower arrangement need pottery. Their requirements are particular, shaped by the intentions of their craft. In this essay, artist Ava Burton explores the design challenges of making pottery for orchids and ikebana. Burton blends insight with technical knowledge. For the art lover, Burton’s essay offers a unique glimpse into design as meditation. For the potter, her discussion offers inspiration. Share her journey and reflections, and perhaps develop your own answer to the design inquiry she suggests.
