Well hi again obviously I am in need of help with this new (ha ha) technology stuff, you would not believe how long it takes me to do this thankfully help is on the way.
Maybe next week there will be new and exciting information if my motivation/inspiration returns. Things have been a little slow on the creativity front for me so far this year.

Pit Fired Vessel
My Inspiration
My latest fascination is with crystalline glazes. The complexity of thes glazes constitutes a lifetime commitment (not sure if I have enough lifetime left). The unpredicability of the result is the challenge that keeps me working towards the "perfect" result. I display the glazes on wheel thrown and slip cast pieces. Changing the colourants and firing cycles to obtain different effects. The surprise results are what inspires me with my pit fired pieces and wall work. I work with clay from my Sunshine Coast property as well as white and terracotta clay. Searching for unusual organic matter to experiment with keeps me busy and each firing brings brings something new.
The next challenge is to combine the two very different styles of work.
