From Creek to Kiln

The Wild Clay Project

A step by step process to harvesting wild clay

 

This gallery of images is a chronicle of one approach to gathering and processing earthenware clay.  Documenting this process from beginning to end is an idea that I have had since first working with naturally occuring clay, and this website has given me the vehicle by which to provide a visual journey of all the stages involved.

This presentation is a visual read of approximately 10 minutes.  This project was begun on 4/15/2023 and finished on 7/3/2023.  Thank you for your interest and good luck on your own clay adventures!
