Hermoso trabajo. Me encantaron sus piezas. Soy de Puerto Rico, trabaje 36 años , el barro ha sido lo mejor que me ha pasado en mi retiro. Larga vida, buenas vibras y muchas bendiciones para usted. Gracias por compartir su trabajo y experiencias.
Beautiful and fascinating. It’s great to hear David’s underpinning philosophy and see the process.
Excellent work. I didn’t know we could mix stoneware and porcelain. I will have to try this. Thanks for the ideas, demonstration and inspiration.
just make sure to wedge it a ton, since clay sold as ‘stoneware’ and ‘porcelain’ can have quite different shrinkages, porosity and obviously color
So inspiring!
when someones mastered what you haven’t even tried yet. amazing work love the crisp geometry and tears.
David, thank you for sharing this. I just started working with clay and you’ve given me many ideas to experiment with (like using woodworking tools on clay).
I love the understated elegance of this man’s work.
Great video!
Wonderful editing!
Perfect length!

What a great work!!!
I always enjoy the CR masterclasses but this one is really a stand-out. Thanks so much!
I absolutely love the aesthetics of your ceramic carving. Really beautiful work.
At first i was like YEP Block but after the firing it cames out really nice. Amazing
This is my first time Watching David. There’s beauty in the simplicity of his tooling and methods. The work speaks for itself.
Lovely example of what I am struggling to understand, much appreciated 💯💪🙏♥️😇😁👌
Thank you so much for sharing with us David. That was a really excellent demonstration.
