recycling clay

at last my clay scrap buckets have thawed out and i was able to start to reclaim clay. i got one bucket spread out on plaster bats...should be ready to pug by the end of the week. did i tell you that i LOVE to pug clay? it is soooo satisfying to start out with globs of clay...and end with fresh smooth tubes...ready to make new pots. mmmmmmm......


this what the scraps look like today:

i will try to post some "during and after" pictures of the pugging process.

...and in case you are wondering....no i haven't finished this months art journal. i promise to do it tomorrow (a day late).
