Wow, I have noticed The Biscuit Factory is changing by exhibiting different artists! Such a nice visit, but I do admit I loved Alister Brookes' work, who has been exhibiting there for a while now. I loved the Raku fired miners, my favourite there so far! Another ceramic artist to look out for is Rowana Gilbert, with her vibrant vessels. I loved her coloured plinths, they went so well with the pots too. #concept #thebiscuitfactory #ceramics #makingclay #ceramic #ceramicart #ar

Several ceramic/potters came to demonstrate their skills at the University of Sunderland. It was a great opportunity to attend and has given my so many ideas for my own work. A raku ceramic artist, a studio pottery thrower and a hand building ceramic artist were featuring. This is David Lawson This is John Scott from Sourdust Pottery. Hand building example. #Uos #sundelrand #newcastle #material #nothumberland #pleasant #craft #people #skills #ceramics #throwing #art #artist #

Material Matters The name of our Masters Degree Final Exhibition show at The National Glass Centre in Sunderland. It went so well, a load of people turned up and I even sold a few of my pieces. I hope my next exhibition isn't too far away. #exhibition #art #contemporaryartist #emergingart #emergingartists #artist #making #maker #sculpting #handbuilding #presentation #present #pleasant #handbuilt #white #willowpattern #pattern #history #family #buying #selling #artexhibition
