This page is a tribute to my talented students and a promise to anyone who is thinking of taking a workshop. YOU will be able to work successfully with colored clay after my workshop!
Most of my students had no prior experience with colored clay. Many tried using stains at some point but never had predictable success. The work you see here is what followed from five days in my colored clay class.
