The unintended result, often misread as a mistake and so dismissed, is one of
the most fertile sources of new ideas. The trick is not to fool with clay's
inherent desire to be expressive. Pay attention to the clay, not only for the
sake of each piece, but because the clay will offer - or impose - its own
suggestions of new forms and ways to work. My pots are not so much about
harmony, although that does happen, but more about tension. |
