©2006 P'Clay® and P'Slip® / US Patent Number 5,726,111. Artists have granted rights to mix paperclays as taught for works of art. Because there are variables beyond my control (selections clays, papers, water, mixing errors and etc) always test samples and use at your own risk.

Because the new "rules" for paperclay ceramics allow far more technical choice compared to tradition...
everyone gets a chance to create, design and improvise more freely than we ever could before.
1 In Studio Practice:artists share hands-on experience:

( bowl by Malene Pederson, Denmark)
"It works, it works, it really works!! We have re-attached broken off greenware appendages fixed handle cracks, and bisque chips· Everything made it through the final glaze firing in great shape." (New York)
"One can work now work on a piece forever because wet clay can be added to dry clay. Pieces that would have been failures can now be saved· its a miracle. I now make what I used to dream of making·" (Oregon)
"yes paper clay changed my life! I slab, throw, press, coil, do everything with it!" (England)
"I have always been able to "throw anything" (on a potter's wheel) but this clay give me much more freedom and has increased the variety of shapes I work with." (Nebraska)
Wall Murals: "What a remarkable material for our wall mural. This clay's capacity to be repaired and altered, defy gravity and defy the accepted laws of clay provided me with more freedom and as a result· expanded vision." (Washington)
Sculpture: "What impresses me most is the flexibility P'Clay® allows. The thickness in my figurative sculptural pieces ranges from a couple of inches (5 cm) to maybe a quarter of an inch (0.5 cm). The freestanding piece was broken in half... and then the head was repaired... I like the smooth surface on the clay and the color.... I anticipate working with it exclusively because it is so rewarding" (Ft. Collins, Colorado)
"The use of P'Slip® has really added to my repertoire and helped enhance the surface of my rock forms. I have spent the last two weeks having so much fun with P'Slip® and plaster molds..." (Canada)
"Paperclay is our goddess!.. I've been working with your paper clay for over two years and I love love love it!.... We are all over 40( in our college sculpture class) and most are just beginning... of course they all started with paperclay... the only way to go if you want NO HASSLES. .....
.....your book, bolted me into the 21st century. I always thought that ceramics seemed a little backward until the ease of paperclay allowed me to create the art that I just HAVE TO MAKE NO MATTER WHAT TIME IT IS!"
