Clay & Ink from Crafts Council on Vimeo.

Ceramist Heidi Harrington discusses finding
inspiration in the movement and stillness in nature. Each of her pieces
is individually screen printed – the clay and image stretch during the
making process until finally freezing into the forms of plates, bowls
and wall pieces.

I’m not much of a sketcher. Not much of a planner, well not on paper at least. My sketches are often just stuck in my head. But I love to see behind the scenes of others thought process and planning for projects. So I loved this one by Galia Bernstein, whose an illustrator as well as a clay artist.

See more of her work on her blog Dancing Kangaroo.
