Wow it's been ages....and it's been so busy...

It really has been to long since I posted on here....there has been so much going on....almost too much to tell, but here are some images from a couple of recent events. These shots were taken by James Hazlewood during the Art in Clay event at Hatfield House. I always enjoy seeing what James chooses to shoot, he really does take some great images of my pots and pots in general.

I am now packing pots for Ceramic Wales this this weekend. After that we have Pots and Food festival in the Peak District, then Abergevenny Food Festival and finally Ceramics in the City in London.......it's going to be a very hectic September.

Art in Clay 2016

Here are a few images from my stand at this years Art in Clay fair at Hatfield House.
Lots of pots were sold, but some of these are still available if anything takes your fancy. Please message me or comment if so.
Thanks to everybody who visited and came and said hello and took pots home with them.
It was great to catch up with friends and meet new customers. I especially enjoyed hearing about how much people enjoy using my pots in their every day life, very satisfying!

Now time to get back on the wheel and replenish stocks for the next shows that are coming up over the next couple of months.

 

The 'Pocket Rocket'

I fired a new experimental kiln this week. It turned out to be a good firing. Cone 10 was flat and glazed on one shelf and Cone 9 down on another set of cones. I introduced salt and soda whilst firing the kiln with gas and wood. It is only a small test kiln so I have called it my 'Pocket Rocket'

Some of the pots will be with me at the shows over the next couple of months.

Back from Art in Clay, Farnham

Back in the a wet and windy Cornwall after an enjoyable weekend in Farnham, Surrey. A great time seeing friends and family and meeting new customers and returning ones. It's always nice to get a positive response to the work and and sell plenty to happy people.

Images from Art in Clay 2015 by James Hazelwood

I'm very grateful to James Hazelwood for taking a great series of shots of my stand at Art in Clay this year. He has a great eye and a passion for ceramics and this equals some really good shots of pots.

This years event was good.....extremely hot which kept the crowds at bay a little, but still a successful weekend.
