Morning Work

There is so much to be done in my studio with orders to fill and Perth Upmarket looming. Perth is hot and very dry - no rain for ages. My studio is not the most pleasant place to be come midday. However, early in the morning it is lovely.

Exciting news... my website is due to be finished ahead of schedule and should be live 25th February.

New website coming soon....

I have a brand new website being made - yay! I have also redesigned my logo.

Here is a sneak preview of the logo.

The website is by Skopos Web Design and will be ready at the end of Feb.

Clay Classes start with a splash (of plaster)

It is the start of week two of clay classes for term one. I am running three classes this term. Two slip casting classes and one "advanced" slip casting class.

I had a number of people who had attended two slip casting classes of mine in the past. I thought they might like to up the anti a bit and make a bigger piece using the paper pulp casting method.

The photo below is of the group mixing plaster.

So far it has been a great class. I am looking forward to seeing how their bowls turn out.

Markets

Thank you to everyone who visited me at Perth Upmarket and Fremantle Bazaar.

Here are a few photos taken at the two markets...
This is Tanya Cain-Abbs from Old Grey House and me at Fremantle Bazaar on our "Clay & Cloth" stall. We had a lovely few days selling our wares at the relaxed and beautiful Fremantle Art Centre.

Perhaps I should have also taken a photo of the stall on Sunday afternoon, as there was not much left!

These photos where taken at the Perth Upmarket. It was a very warm day, but that didn't stop the Christmas shoppers. My decorations sold like hot cakes and so did my new Floral Ware. It is so nice to get the immediate feedback from people buying my work from the markets. It is very affirming :)

A special thank you to Justine from Perth Upmarket and Marcus from Fremantle Bazaar.
