Would it change differently if oil was used instead of water?

  The chemical structure and color of clays change when water is added
  or subtracted.

  I am not sure how this image will do going out over the list, but I'll try. It is a test sample of painting with red clay that I found at a new housing site here in Huntsville. I have to more grinding before I can start using it in real paintings but it is a very nice color of red. When I was grinding it it turned almost orange. I thought I had lost the red in the grinding, but when I painted with it and it dried it can out very nice.
