Hello Jinggoy,
It's good to hear from you. I don't work with clay, so I'm not familiar with "ball clay". Can you explain? Can you also post an example of one of your sculptures?

JAZ,

A description of Ball Clay can be found here (http://www.ima-na.org/about_industrial_minerals/ball_clay.asp).

Jingoy - Let me add my welcome to the site. I have checked your reference on ball clay, and as someone with a bit of chemical and mineralogical background, let me offer the opinion that it might be described as high strength and probably high fire clay. The reference begins by describing ball clay as sedimentary, but I believe that is true of all clay. It is the silica content that probably makes it distinct.

Please tell us something about your own work, if you will.
