Thanks to everyone who took part, today and during the whole of the exhibition. We've had so much fun seeing your fabulous creations, and getting to chat with you!

All the sculptures will be photographed together in the near future!

I'll post pictures here and on fb.

Thanks for being a part of Our Place!

Part of the Art -Day 7 and 8

I didn't make it to the studio for day 7 but luckily my mum did and so did my aunt and uncle, they made these nice clay prints.



Sadly no one else wanted to join in that day. But today we had some lovely creations and a very young visitor had a go too!



This flower is beautiful!


And this bowl show that even something as simple as a thumbnail can be an effective tool for adding texture.


And check out this cute Lil mouse!


Tomorrow is your last chance to come and make something to be Part of the Art!

Work in Progress - Hedgehog Pots

Being at the studio for the exhibition is proving useful for getting some work done too! Over the last 3 days I've thrown white earthenware pots, dipped them in terracotta slip, burnished them and then carved into them and added features to make hedgehog pots!







I'm still deciding which style I like best and have a few more pots to experiment with but I'm liking how they are turning out so far.

Day 3 - Be Part of the Art

It's been a much quieter day today, but we still found some enthusiastic visitors to help add to our artwork.
They were very creative, check out thier work!



Come and add your own creation.

Be Part of the Art

The exhibition theme at our studios is 'Place'. We want you to become a part of our place by creating your own peice of artwork in the form of a small clay model when you visit.

You dont have to have anything in mind before you come, we just want you to revive the fun, freedom and creativity you had as a child.
The point is to have fun having a go!

Today we've already gathered a fantastic range, from cats, to trees, to snakes and tiles!


A mouse and a flower.


A streptococcus-saurus and a hedgehog


Fabulous tiles, cats, rats and mushrooms!


Ripp the elf


A smashing snake!


A striking tile


A snoozy cat.


We hope the experience of creating something for our place will create a place in your own memory of a fun experience.

We hope that over the week, more of your creations will appear in our place, making an evolving, interactive artwork made by all of you!



I'll post photos here as it evolves, so please come and add to our artwork!

Thank you to everyone who joined in with such enthusiasm today, it was brilliant meeting you all and seeing your creations!
