whitmore square arts fair scraped through with minimal rain. a lovely vibe to the event and really nice to have a bit of contact with people. i rarely do markets, so it was good to hear what people liked/didn't like about some of my work (i took beakers and badges - nothing over $20!) and also nice to sell with no commission for a change. also swapped a piece with a fellow maker. nice.

all about making

what a strange and wonderful process this ceramic art life is. periods of making, creating, playing, followed by the anxious wait associated with firing. what you then hope for is a collection of beautiful objects, ready to be enjoyed by others and maybe some for my own space.
at the moment my hands and heart keep themselves busy making new objects.
watch this space.

what i'd like is to draw a lady dancing around a pot... out comes the camera to get some shapes.
