To Valerie Clay is a joyful medium and offers many rich designs, styles, colors and textures with which to experiment. She is open to all forms and styles and loves to experiment. Valerie is inspired to create and the medium of pottery is a special favorite. Valerie enjoys the play of clay; how it feels to throw, sculpt and manipulate pieces.
Pottery offers Valerie a creative mental space that restores balance. Valerie is inspired to bring other facets of her artistic ability to pottery and likes to experiment with color and design as well as structure and form. She enjoys focusing on classical ceramic forms but leans towards modern expression in her own work.
