Do you perhaps mean a ceramic material? Its worked by hand and tools before being fired in a kiln and hardens from heat. It is then used to make things like stoneware or earthenware or sculptures and mosaic art.
I haven't but I have tried pottery. It is the art of making earthenware, stoneware and sculpture.
I like drawing but have lost my touch. I've tried painting but no good. Do you enjoy making art? I do not make art but have you changed your media? Not just the material that gets manually applied but the base where it gets applied to. I have and none seems to work for me, perhaps I just am burnout and don't enjoy it anymore. Perhaps I should just go make furniture. Ah, so you have heard of carpentry or woodworking? They're practices for craftspeople that build buildings, furniture, and, well, other objects! Yeah, my uncle was one, it was a sight to see him make stuff. He used a material that he would mold with his hands and put it into a kiln but I'm not sure what it was.
A ceramic material is worked by hand and with tools that might be colored or glazed, then fired in a kiln and hardened by heat, to make earthenware, stoneware, sculpture and mosaic art.
