I obtain clay to make my work directly from the earth.  These clays are prospected throughout Montana using geological survey maps, word of mouth, and a lot of curiosity.  Each clay is unique, and its working and firing characteristics a product of the compounded geologic processes that formed it.  Some are smooth, unctuous, and plastic as found while others are shale and mudstone and do not exhibit clay like properties until ground into powder.
