My interest is mostly in the forming process, and I find hand building allows me the time to listen to the clay, as it moves in subtle ways I may not have planned. My work is finished, by burnishing with a fine slip known as Terra Sigillata. I love the soft, sensuous feel, this method gives my peice, and it seems the more natural way to finish something from the earth. It can then be smoke, sawdust or pit fired with organic materials to produce unpredictable, and often exciting finishes, or left white and simple.
