Notă biografică
Kevin Millward started his training at art school and then went on to work at a number of studios including Cooper's Pottery in Cheshire, the Gladstone Pottery Museum and working with David Leach. Later, he was approached by Harrison Mayer, now Potterycrafts, to be their craft advisor, helping potters, schools, colleges and small industry with making and technical problems as well as giving workshops and demonstrations all over the UK and Europe. He later left to set up his own studio in Leek, making stoneware and porcelain, and started teaching part time at his old college, which led to lecturing at some of the UK's leading universities specialising in ceramics such as Bucks New University and the University of Westminster. He has more recently been series consultant to The Great Pottery Throw Down, a Channel 4 TV show.

Recenzii
This book will certainly inspire many readers to try new decoration methods. The best parts of this book are the beautiful images showing the variety of options there are.
Keith Millward shares his vast experience as a ceramicist, designer and educator in this rich overview of surface decoration in ceramics. He outlines each process clearly and concisely, and importantly, highlights the special qualities and unique effects of each. This is a valuable book for the studio.
Millward has created a reference for contemporary potters that mines and updates a vocabulary steeped industry and the ancients. Thorough and comprehensible, this book is a must have for any studio library.
Kevin Millward's Surface Decoration is an exciting and thorough compilation of ceramics surface techniques. From green ware to sgraffito, glazes to lustres- this book explores it all. A clearly organized compressive and easy to follow book that could be a perfect companion to the student, artist, teacher and craftsmen.
This comprehensive guide represents the consolidation of Milward's extensive knowledge of the subject. As a highly experienced studio potter who has served also as a technical consultant to the ceramic industry, a plethora of tried and tested practical advice is made accessible to serve a range of ceramicists at any level in their career.
This instructive, well-organized book is the culmination of 40-plus years of Millward's hands-on experience teaching, designing, and potting in the UK. In accessible, concise text and excellent color photographs (including step-by-step processes), the author presents an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary methods to decorate ceramics. The author encourages experimentation by including tried and true tips and tricks, variations, and recommendations, and discussion of expected results and potential problems (and their solutions). Ceramics can be decorated before and/or after firing; some processes begin on the wet clay itself, whereas others require application during specific stages of production. Contrasting colored clays can be combined several ways. Stencils, stamps, inlay, relief, and resists can produce a variety of surface textures and imagery. The advantages and pitfalls of all the methods presented are insightfully discussed. Detailed instructions are included for painting, drawing, printing, trailing, dipping, and spraying slips, underglazes, overglazes, and lusters onto unfired and fired clay. Numerous inspirational images of the author's and of other ceramists' work accompany the text. This very practical book should be in every potter's library. Summing Up: Recommended. All readers.
