Clay crafting videos

20 May 2009 by Leave a Comment

A couple of videos just for fun. I’ve mentioned Eva Funderburgh on the blog before; I’m quite fascinated with her little beasts and hope to own one some day. After encountering a somewhat expected technical issue in my own ceramic sculptures, I went back and watched one of Eva’s time-lapse videos. I just learned of Ayumi Horie last week thanks to Twitter. Her dry throwing technique is something I definitely want to try — if I ever actually get back into throwing.
