The techniques of resist and masking, used in the making of ceramics, can produce interesting results. The use of wax, paper, clay and other materials to prevent the effects of heat, fire, smoke, chemical reactions, colours and glazes from altering or contaminating the surface of a piece requires a long learning process, often complicated by considerations of the state of the clay or which form of glazing is to be used.

Bought this book because I had seen the author' work in another book without good info. This book gives some more information, but not too the level of another ceramist needs. I'm like Martha Stewart, pissed off because of the incompleteness.
