Introduction+to+paperclay

Paper clay is a clay that is mixed with shredded paper or other fibers. These fibers create a very strong and versatile clay that is also lightweight. It's perfect for building ceramics of any size, including very large pieces that would be extremely heavy with standard clay. 

Learn this exciting technique set by step. From making the paste, to preparing the slabs and building sculptures. Then firing and glazing.

Get creative and make unique pieces with this incredibly versatile material, which can be used dry or wet. It can be used for intricate and paper thin pieces, and for large scale as well. I hope you will fall in love with it just as I did ….
