Ceramics for Gardens & Landscapes

Potters seeking a fresh market for their pieces need look no further than out the studio door to the garden and lawn. Gardening is the No. 1 hobby among Americans today. Enthusiasts spend many hours and a great deal of money to maintain beautiful lawns and gardens. Todays potters can fill this new market need by creating ceramic pieces that combine the beauty of pottery with the splendor of the outdoors. This book presents the work of a group of international ceramists who share the pieces theyve created for outdoor use and discuss the special considerations of making them, including how to weatherproof and transport, how to make and install oversize pieces, and how to solve durability and vandalism issues.
