Reveal – the open studios event is almost upon us once again. This year East Riding studios will be open on 2/3 Oct and 9/10 Oct from 10:00 – 5:00.
I will be demonstrating techniques for throwing pots on the wheel here at my rural studio pottery in Ellerton. It’s a chance to watch how it’s done, have a chat about firing and glazing and perhaps be inspired sufficiently to book yourself a lesson. A popular idea is to purchase a gift voucher if you would like to book a lesson for someone else – music track to “Ghost” always an option but can’t guarantee Patrick Swayze.
My pottery will be swept out, tidied and stacked with porcelain pots to peruse and purchase. The new wall pieces depicting Skipwith Common and my favourite Silver Birch copse, will be on show too.
There will be a local “Go West” guide again to direct visitors around key studios in the west of the county, making it fuss free to see potters, painters, printers and textile artists in the space of a day. Open Studios is always a great and much-anticipated event so I hope to meet up with lots of friends both old and new. If you need any further info or would like a “Go West” guide posting out, please drop me an email.
