New Pot

I am pleased with this pot. I don’t say this very often. The lines are incised with both black and blue slip to add a bit of variation in the lines and the inside was brushed with cobalt oxide with a matte clear glaze. The vivid colour of the blue inside is only visible when you peer into it. I hope to use this colour more prominently soon.

Art in the Garden, Botanical Gardens Sheffield

These are my pots at Art in the Gardens 4 & 5 September 2021.

This was the first time that I had exhibited at Art in the Gardens. I was in the Northern Potters tent with seven other potters. Small items went well like the pebbles and spoons and I sold my favourite round platter. Enjoyed the weekend very much. It was a relaxed and friendly event with people happy to be outside.

Train Train

The last two images in the series Train Train. The final picture County Line Special has its title in homage to the great British harmonica player of the 1960’s, Cyril Davies, who enjoyed a top twenty hit of that title.
