Ellen Fager

Clay is the most wonderful material:  it waits for you; it is humble and expendable; there is no end to the things you can do with it, up to that point where it quietly, steadfastly, asserts its limitations; it accepts the mark of your hand, and in that mark you see yourself and the path you have travelled
Ellen Fager

I could not think of a better way to express how I also feel about clay..thanks Ellen
