Sharing the joy…

I have some more pottery workshops coming up this year along with my fellow potter Pauline. We will be doing a next steps course for the folks who were learning with us recently at the Burgh Hall in Dunoon and also a day’s course up in Oban at the developing community project Rockfield Centre. We are also going to be running a whole course for Argyll College from October to December. For that we needed artists CVs and a whole detailed programme about what students will achieve and the processes involved. Another stretching moment. When we had done it all we felt quite pleased – seeing it on paper makes it seem like we really know what we are talking about.

​Here is one of our students deep in thought at a day’s course we ran at Tighnabruaich Gallery earlier this year. It’s so lovely helping people get used to handling clay, freeing the negative feelings hey have about ability and creativity, and watching the thoughts and ideas develop into actual pieces – each person’s finished work unique and special. We shall we looking forward to an autumn of classes…
