Display Cabinet.


My studio at uni has changed rooms this year so I don't walk through the way I used to. However, I went past today, and realised that some of my work from the Exhibition Project last year has been put in a display cabinet... Lovely surprise!!

Starting Third Year!!


Crikey it's been a while!!
Finally moved back up to Leicester and started third year (!!!) so I've spent the past few weeks settling in and getting back into a routine.
 
My first project is called 'Drawing, Design Translation' and I'm using the photos from my visits abroad over summer as inspiration. I'm mainly looking at architechture for form, but I'm carrying on with my slabbing and hope to incorporate some aspect of maps into it.
 
I've got so many ideas buzzing around in my head at the moment but only 3 and a half weeks to produce all of them!! Arghhh I can just tell this is going to be a very hectic year. However, I've become good at getting up early and staying at uni from 9 to 5 and feel I'm achieving quite a lot... We shall see!!
 
In the past week I've made 65 test tiles, 6 small samples, 4 thrown pots, 1 mould and 9 new glazes; a good start!!
  

Glaze tests.
 
Hopefully I'll be doing more regular updates now that I'm back into the swing of things!!
