Another stoneware clay session (pottery) this time as one of the activities for a child's birthday party! Alabang, April 2004

Red and white clay can be expensive because you have
to find a supplier who will not only sell the clay but also
fire it for you. Cost include clay and possibly two firings.
Best source: artists with kiln, clay and glaze.


Modeling Clay
A less expensive material can be a modeling clay
one can buy in small packed boxes. They are
of course not as durable as red/white clay
but they are perfect for forming exercises
and some kids prefer it because it is less messy
and they can re-use it to create another work!
