Summary: 500 ideas
Comment: 500 BOWLS & its companion 500 TEAPOTS is a source of inspiration for any potter. I hope the keep publishing these books. Oh, I love Lark Publications!

Rating: 5
Summary: Insightful - Inspiring - Interesting!
Comment: For me the book is full of ideas, form, style, technique, decoration and color. I'm an amature potter who loves to make bowls and vessels. I find the book to be a great companion when I need help making decisions about what I want to make and where to begin. I sometimes need to be inspired with ideas or picture and then make it my own by evolving it into my creation. Sometimes I fine it very rewarding to see if I can recreate a vessle that I like. The results are always interesting although not the same, or necessarlly inspiring! I guess that is why I'm an amature but I love the effort and the place that working on my pottery takes me. The book has a permanate place in my studio.

Summary: 500 Bowls to Bowl You Over!
Comment: In addition to being beautifully presented, the bowls depicted in this trim 8" x 8" publication, run the gamet from functional to sculptural, not missing some wonderful stops in between. Leslie Thompson's Patterned Pueblo Bread-Raising Bowl is a perfect example of function - a utilitarian shape accented with a band of scraffito patterning - and at the same time, sculptural in appearance. Her Hatched Triangles bowl further back in the collection is just that, a sculptural interpretation of classic form! What's even nicer is that in many instances, more than one bowl is shown by the same artist, giving the peruser a sense of the creator as well as their creations. This book showcases clay artists chosen for their work rather than their notoriety, something many other contemporary epistles fail to do. A great compliment to this is Lark's previous publication, 500 Teapots.
