This statement holds true for all art. Use what you have. If only pencil and paper, create. Paint, wood, stone,computer, performer, your own body...an artist uses what he/she has. The limitation or opportunity of what is available is the framework for creativity.
This practice does not end with the individual artist. We are all creative and all artists. If we consider other artists working with 'the clay they have' we can see how our generosity is vital to their creation. When creating work consider what other artists need to continue the creativity from where you leave it. The question we can evaluate this work by... 'is my art giving others more or less clay to work with?'
