For my own artistic skills needs I recently made clay representations of a Chalice, candle holders, offering bowl, etc
I know they have a lot of my own energy imbued into the very creation of these polymer/ceramic things but, will it be just as effective? And just for fun I also made an athame since I still had a lot of clay left over.

Also, in your honest opinion, whats the best tools/methods of carving? I already found a wickedly naturally-twisted Torrey Pine branch that had fallen, but If I were to carve a similar design that wraps around the wood, what's your thoughts?

Any discussion would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for reading
Blessed be!
