I had an email today from those lovely people at Craft&Design Magazine to say that I had won the silver award for ceramics in their Selected Awards - again! I don't know who else won the ceramics section yet. A very big thank you to all those who took the time and trouble to vote for me, it's very much appreciated. I'll let you know other winners shortly, I know one other but that's not my news to tell yet.
Linda this is why earthenware potters go to the trouble of wood firing. Pot on the left from my electric kiln, pot on the right from the wood firing. Oh and not to mention the allure of the flames, pyromaniac? Me?
Simple? Too little? Does it look elegant or lazy? Fine line.
All things considered I think that slipping just one candlestick with black slip went fairly well don't you think? My new shoes are nicely bedded in now, one less thing to worry about.
I vote for elegant, Hannah. And congratulations on the Silver Award. Well deserved.
ReplyDeleteSweet- sometimes less is all you need.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the award.... I voted!
I was just asking Dan about wood firing and earthenware. That second mug looks so toasty!
ReplyDeleteThanks Hannah -now I see the difference. It looks more like those pots in the V&A
ReplyDeleteWell done Silver CDM. Gold for blog!!

ReplyDeleteAlso, thanks for making me feel better seeing the glaze on the floor. I thought I was the only one who did that!
Congratulations on your award!
