"Paperclay adds a whole new dimension for the hand builder of sculpture. It open up as-yet unexplored areas of creative possibility. Tony Birks author of The Complete Potter's Companion (see "see off the Shelf" PMI Summer 1999) states: The most revolutionary development of sculptural ceramics in this century (1900's) has been the rapid spread over the last decade of the use of paper clay." He may be right"

Hi Rosette,
The workshop I took with you some years ago in Washington State enlarged my way of making clay. I love your paper clay for platters, figures, draping figures. All kinds of things. I also make some of my own out of various clay bodies. I transport my summer work from Montana to California for firing and I can almost get l00% breakage free. This is pre-bisquing. I would have gotten l00% last year, but I made a packing mistake.
Cheers and thanks.

Dear Rosette:
This is exactly the way you led me on-feed the soul- and for that I am so much thankful to you . You have opened a different window into my perception of the world and that was the start of a wonderful trip that I continue to follow. Thanks again. We do not meet very often - in our lives- inspired people who change our course of lives, you were one of those for me.
Keep inspiring people, obviously this is your role on earth - nothing to do with the medium- you are above it. And this is very important for you to realize it .
Best of the best
