New Table... New lease of productivity
The other week I brought my parents old kitchen table down from Buckingham and installed it in my studio, put up a shelf and now I finally have my own proper work space, its lovely, I even attacked the studio with the pink sparkly dyson I recently rescued from Brighton.... check me out working hard.... yes it bloody chilly in there.
Been making new work for Christmas fairs - pictures of work in progress coming soon. Think epaulettes for army pets and urban foxes......

Children's workshops at Camden Arts Centre
Sorry haven't updated in a while, in the meantime I have been: running workshops at Camden Arts Centre, sunning myself in France and Cornwall and completed my website (more on that next)...
So I had the first of my own children's workshops at Camden, it was a fun filled but tiring week of all things clay with 5 - 11 year olds. I crammed in as many techniques as possible and the two messiest things I know; making paper clay and mixing plaster -these were both great for getting the children (literally) stuck in, getting their hands dirty and working together.
We visited one of the current exhibitions at the gallery; Matilde Rosier's 'Necklace of Fake Teeth' where I feature in one of the videos produced as part of a mask wearing 'performance' at the private view. Matilde had been looking at Ritual objects in the British Museum and had created hand painted shell masks, which we took inspiration from and the children created their own masks from paperclay with sprigged decoration.
They all looked amazing!
I am currently running a 10 week, Saturday morning Ceramics techniques for Juniors course at the gallery; where we're making objects from their own imagined civilisations.
Here are some pictures of them before they were fired, also some of the giant's necklace we made as a group to practice joining parts.
