Or choose a favourite family photo and make a delightful three-dimensional diorama. Just roll the clay flat, trace and cut out. Dogs are a perennial favourite project amongst ceramicists and the author shows readers how to easily make a free-standing canine using the coil method.

As a different option to the usual ceramic glazes, smoke and sawdust firings are explained.
