Svend Bayer 'Potter' (Part One)

Pots for sale

This is the design of the pots in Atelier
I have used different glazes on them though... much softer semi-matt colour range in Blue, Green and Stone

College work

I finally started making some work for my project after far too long procrastinating! I've thrown some pieces which I am going to experiment with tomorrow joining together and distorting.
I had a good chat with my lovely tutor Taz (she might be reading this!)! An idea has sprung up about making vessels and turing them on their side and changing where the opening is?? Also having the opening off centre??? I'll start on some more tryouts tomorrow.
If I remember to take my camera to college I'll post some pictures of work in progress soon.

Busy day Raku firing but not terribly impressed with the results. A quick dash into college to unload my pots from the kiln and then hot foot them to the gallery (literally still warm out of the kiln!). Really pleased to have work for sale in my first Gallery! Atelier in Barnstaple (opposite the library). Go and check it out, there is a whole host of beautiful things in there and they have just put in a beautiful window display for Christmas.
