I'm no potter. Professionally I'm a graphic designer and 2D
artist. Asking me to tackle 3D art like
sculpting and pottery is guaranteed to send me into a panic stricken swoon.
Somehow my brain refuses to
wraparound the concept of 3D. Oh sure I
can make things look 3D on paper but to actually create a 3D object you might
as well ask me to build the Eiffel Tower.
That's why I'm so impressed by
those that can create 3D art.
Catalina Island Pottery And Tile
1927 - 1937 are good examples. The
revised and expanded 2nd Edition book, written by Carole Coates with photos by
Jeffrey Snyder and published by SchifferPublishing, contains a plethora of photos and information about that
important period in American crafts.
Besides containing color photos of the various tile
and pottery the book is packed with historical text, prices, advertising
material and so much more. I'm not 3D
artist but I can appreciate the incredible talent it took to create such beautiful
pieces of art and once looking through the book you will too.
