5.0 out of 5 stars Suitable for beginners
A useful book for basic projects. Helpful step by step guides.
4.0 out of 5 stars Creased and not a hardback as advertised
I bought two books by this author and both arrived this evening. One a hardback and the other, this one that was advertised as such, is not and came with the back cover rolled and creased. It looks good content wise but I would not have paid as much for a paperback. Both were similar money.
3.0 out of 5 stars Looks great but not a hardcover
Content looks great but was expecting a hardcover.
4.0 out of 5 stars Paperback book not hardcover
This looks good with lovely clear pictures and lists of kit suitable for a beginner but just want to point out it's a paperback not a hardcover like it says.
Sunshine Cobb great book
Sunshine Cobb is a great instructor and a fine artist. Love her lessons and the work she creates. A good book for the beginning hand-builder.
Positively brilliant!!!
Sunshine’s style is truly delightful. Her ceramic wares are aesthetically pleasing and the way she explains her processes through writing is both warm and inviting. With step-by-step instructions for projects, bright, clear, and vivid images, templates, examples from various other artists, and more, this book has instantly become a welcome part of my ceramic arts library! It arrived just this morning and I’ve already read it from cover to cover; I know that I’ll certainly be referring back to this chestnut for years to come! Recommended reading for everyone who works/plays in clay.
very informative
