I couldn't be more excited about this book, a tell-all from the master tile maker. I have the privilege of calling Forrest a friend…now I can call him my teacher. In this book, he answered all my questions on how to make tiles. * Paul Blaise, host of The Potters Cast podcast *
To see this process firsthand and understand how Forrest’s work as a potter informs the choices he makes in his tile -- from pattern to palette -- has introduced me to a new avenue for artistic collaboration. * Ginny Hautau, owner of Urban Cowgirl Art and Design, Corrales, NM *
