I was lucky enough to get a chance to meet with David Waterhouse and talk about his ‘Wonder of Birds’ exhibition currently running at the Norwich Castle Museum. I was interested to know why he had chosen the pieces he had and whether he had looked at more modern technology…

Digital Revolution at the Barbican until 14th September I had desperately wanted to get down to London to see this Digital show, but with deadlines short this was the only date available, with College Workshops shut on a Friday the only thing left for me to do was the writing and visit…

After successfully wiring up the pressure mat and feeling very pleased as I have never wired anything, ever… It was over to MAX msp, I dutifully read through the tutorials and they are great, max comes with at least 20 or so basic tutorials and these all have working ‘patches’…

A touch of sun to make the pots pop! Here are the Raku results from a rainy Saturday firing. It was well worth getting a little soggy when you get results like this ❤️ I am slightly in love with my Raku 🥰 All of these pots will be going into the Anglian Potters Spring exhibition in the Undercroft opening next weekend, I’ll post times etc soon but thought you’d like to see what came out of the kiln. 😊 #pottery #raku #shinythings #fire @anglianpotters

Raku Day, drizzly and wet all yesterday but the Raku couldn’t wait ☺️ Ably assisted by the hubster on lids, leaves and sawdust duty 😁 Second Raku firing at home and still as excited by the process as the first time. I had quite a few to put through so you’ll just have to wait to see the results 😘 #raku #pottery #wheelthrown #playwithclay

This the sound that comes from putting bone dry clay into my throwing water, getting ready to be reclaimed. It’s amazing! At one point there’s a jungle audio-scape then it’s frying eggs 🤣 it is not my stomach and I haven’t done anything to it! Enjoy some weird ASMR on me on a Monday ❤️ #pottery #ceramics #asmr #weirdsoundsfromthereclaimpot

Throwing some shapes… well goblet/bellied mug shapes anyway 🤣. These will be either pink or purple against the grey clay which is a stunning combo ❤️ The clay is Sibelco Scandi Throwing clay and is rather lovely to use, not cheap, but bloomin’ gorgeous ! #pottery #wheelthrown #sibelcoclay #playwithclay #colourfulpottery

Thought I’d play with another new clay today, the Sibelco white throwing clay, it’s not cheap so I’ve only got a tester lump of 2.5kg. Going to hopefully put these through my Raku process. The first 3 shapes were my favourites to throw and how they turned out, so I can compare these with my normal clay. And wanted to try a large sphere shape with a whole kilo, which I don’t throw that size very often… It’s buttery soft to throw with, but very easy (for me) to overstretch it when pulling those walls. See pot number 3 for the fail 🙀 . #wheelthrown #potterythrowdown #sibelco #playwithclay

Project 2! I’ve always enjoyed my very flat illustrative style and really wanted to try and incorporate it into my pottery somehow, so starting small with this fairly simple Border Collie picture and testing out a process on tiles to see if it’s something I could put onto a pot. I think Raku could really suit a black and white finish for these so more tests on the way! ☺️#pottery #playwithclay
