Some pots and plates I made over Christmas. I’m looking forward to doing a raku firing next week.
St Albans Museums and Galleries Trust Prize
While attending the opening of the Hertfordshire Open Exhibition on Saturday, I was pleasantly surprised to hear my name read out as the winner of the St Albans Museums and Galleries Trust Prize! Thanks goes to Kat, Mum and Dad, Marlene, Jo, Mike, Asa and everybody else who has supported and encouraged me with this adventure.

Firing Fail
I attempted to sawdust fire some larger pieces the other day but sadly both cracked during the firing. Bah.
I suspect that they both cracked due to the uneven heating in the sawdust, they got a bit too much air in the bottom and got very hot very quickly. Still, I am looking forward to some more experimenting.

Open Studios 2011
The Open Studios went well, the weather was fantastic all weekend so we had quite a few visitors. I was quite chuffed to be actually selling some of my work but it was still quite hard to let them go. Thanks to Jo and all the other artists at the Farmhouse, my Mum and Dad, and my friends and colleagues who made it up to Stevenage to support me.
It was also interesting to chat to other artists and potters who were visiting the farmhouse for the first time such as Gloria Urech, a local graphic designer.
Sawdust Firing
Did a spot of sawdust firing today for some burnished pieces I have been working on. The kiln is quite simple, just made from bricks, a paving slab, some kiln props and a sheet of metal as a lid (cheers Phil).
Farmhouse Open Studios 2011
Hello 
My first Open Studios at the Farmhouse is this weekend! Dead nervous and excited, have been frantically trying to glaze and fire everything in time for it. Come along and have a poke about the farmhouse, meet the other artists and their work, there will be cake. You can find Jo Atherton and myself in Studio 11.
