Book Synopsis A Potter's Workbook by : Clary Illian
Download or read book A Potter's Workbook written by Clary Illian and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Potter's Workbook, renowned studio potter and teacher Clary Illian presents a textbook for the hand and the mind. Her aim is to provide a way to see, to make, and to think about the forms of wheel-thrown vessels; her information and inspiration explain both the mechanics of throwing and finishing pots made simply on the wheel and the principles of truth and beauty arising from that traditional method. Each chapter begins with a series of exercises that introduce the principles of good form and good forming for pitchers, bowls, cylinders, lids, handles, and every other conceivable functional shape. Focusing on utilitarian pottery created on the wheel, Illian explores sound, lively, and economically produced pottery forms that combine an invitation to mindful appreciation with ease of use. Charles Metzger's striking photographs, taken under ideal studio conditions, perfectly complement her vigorous text.
Book Synopsis Seeing in the Dark by : Ronald D. Vaughan
Download or read book Seeing in the Dark written by Ronald D. Vaughan and published by Smyth & Helwys Publishing, Incorporated. This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the Bible have anything to say about depression? In thirty-five years of serving as a pastor, counselor, and chaplain, Ronald "Dee" Vaughan has learned that this is not an academic question. Those who ask about the Bible's relevance to this illness do so because they are struggling with emotional and spiritual darkness and need spiritual strength to survive. As a student of the Bible and a survivor of depression, the author answers those struggling seekers. During his own time of illness, Vaughan kept a journal of Scripture passages, quotations, advice, and personal discoveries-truths that gave him glimpses of spiritual light that guided him through the darkness toward healing and health. In this book, he shares those life-giving discoveries. This collection of biblical meditations is designed to be used as a daily devotional resource. Along with each meditation is a prayer based on that chapter's life lesson and a truth to affirm, a short summary to help readers remember what they've learned.
