Crafts in the Pen, Skipton Auction Mart
It has been a busy and fulfilling weekend at The Crafts in the Pen, Skipton Auction Mart. I have made many sales as well as commissions, and meeting other stall holders, overall it was very enjoyable. Hopefully I will get the opportunity to hold another stall at Skipton Auction Mart, either in the summer at Art in the Pen or returning to Crafts in the Pen in November. #2019 #skipton #skiptonauctionmart #maker #ceramics #ceramic #design #craft #christmas #stall #craftsinthepen

Crafts in the Pen Set Up
It has been such a busy day.. Driving TWO hours to get to Crafts in the Pen at Skipton and setting up my pen for the weekend. It is my first craft stall at an event like this and I was so nervous and excited. After a few hours of setting up I finally finished. Looking at the other stalls setting up I know it is going to be a good show. Below are a few pictures of setting up and the result. #2018 #christmas #craft #crafts #ceramics #handmade #handmadeceramics #ceramic #clay #p

Simply Rhino Level One
For three days I have been learning more about Rhino at The Goldsmith Centre, London. I have had some experience using this software during my Bachelor degree at The University of Sunderland and at work using Matrix 9.0 (a plug-in to Rhino, which is more jewellery specific). It was a three full day course, which I can't recommend enough. The teaching was led by Sean Cowell and he was very knowledgable and patient with the group, I am certainly going to attend the next level
In the New Year!
It is nearly 2017, and I am putting into perspective the aims I wish to achieve in my art work and business. In the next year I plan on buying my own kiln, setting up a live online shop on this website and others, selling my own work. I also wish to participate in the next year's Christmas Craft stalls. Although I already have a studio space for working in I am assuming it will around Easter time when I can actually set up my equipment and arrange a professional working envir
