Highly recommended for the artist and non-artist alike.
An absolutely outstanding book. Even if you are not a potter, Brother Thomas' essays are very rich (and the pottery really is beautiful). Like all the rest of you increasingly budget conscious folks, it's rare for me to shell out money for "coffee table books" these days but this read is worth its weight in gold. In depth discussions on the creative process, spirituality and what it means to be fully human. I'd highly recommend Creation Out of Clay: The Ceramic Art and Writings of Brother Thomas
to any serious spiritual aspirant, regardless of whether or not you identify yourself as or aspire to be "an artist".
