I have been very busy preparing some great work for my OPEN STUDIO EVENT. It is always such an interesting and rewarding process of going from ideas to making things, chaos to order, and then to the moment where I can finally show off the last while’s efforts to the public. I like doing this at my studio, rather than in a gallery, because I feel the work can be enjoyed best in a real environment where it interacts with the other elements in the room, rather than being isolated in a white cube space. Please come and visit if you are near Cape Town. You can also access the price list for the show here.

I had a bit of a shoulder injury earlier this year and took the recovery time to make some pinch pots, which is a form I return to on a regular basis and feel is the very essence of connecting with and hand building in clay. They will be on show as well as my bigger pieces. These ones are on top of my new brochure, with a poster of one of my classic vessels on the one side.

This beauty is fresh out of the kiln. I combined my love of painterly surfaces with my love of lines and stripes. It is in a muted palette of greys, whites and warmer shades of brown. I like it a lot!

See you later this week!
