These forms are groups, or families that start as one ball of clay. They have a life that is a process of divisions while staying true to the idea of each other. Each time I visit the idea of the family I am reminded that we all benefit from the unique personality behind each of our family members. Good or bad we are similar. All my clay work is fired in wood kilns that are provided by fellow artists and I am thankful for all those ties that create our unique family.
