"Squeezing paint out of tubes and mixing desired colors by sight is a simple luxury not available to the ceramist. The glazemaker sees what he has mixed only after the glaze has emerged from the kiln in its metamor-phosed beauty. But with boundless enthusiasm and good humor, Robin Hopper shows how, for most colors, it is possible to work toward a goal in much the same way as one chooses paint from charts in a store. The Ceramic Spectrum is not a recipe book. Rather, it is a pragmatic distillation of the author's lifetime of experience with glazes and color. To the student of ceramics-whether beginner or professional-Hopper offers an approach to the study of ceramic glaze and color development that does not rely on the use of published formulae or mathematics. It instead reaches back to the empirical methods of glazemaking in use for thousands of years before the advent of glaze formulation by mathematical equation. Artikel-Nr. hCraft03
