That’s right people, today was the last day in Roberto’s lovely studio, with Prince playing in the background and people quietly getting on with their bits of clay.
Ahhhh, and here is the one and only piece to come off the wheel that didn’t crumple. The good things about it were done by Roberto, the not so good bits were all me. I’m very fond of this bowl as it may well be the only thing I ever make on the wheel. That colour makes me jump up and down inside.
And here’s my first project from week one! My lamp, with base and bulb, all twinkly!
This dish lost some of its glaze but I think that gives a nice, rustic look.
And this one is just a little cutie.
I am so attached to all my bits I don’t know how I’ll give them away!

Apart from the ones like this matt black dish for my bro which has his name on. There’s another one coming for my sister, and a couple of personalised tiles and a little square dish too.
It’s been so much fun getting my hands dirty every Monday, and a fantastic way to start the week. But there are many other creative courses available, so I’m thinking maybe oil painting next…..
The tiles are so sweet, and I love the bowl (not my colour tho obviously), and the plates and the lamp,m and the… You’ve had an amazing start to pottery. Well done. xx
