The art fair is on another level 😍 at least you had ago at pottery and now know what it takes if you want to go forward with it. Cats are coming on great😍 Have a good week and catch up soon😉❤️x
@@JanBell-h5c Hi Jan! Oh yes wasn’t it tho?! I had such a great time, there was so much to see! You’re right I am a bit more informed than I was with the pottery and when I’m ready I’ve got the clay to give it another bash! Thank you, I’m really enjoying making them….i want to make more! You have a good week too…see you soon! 🥰❤️
Ooo, I'm starting to look forward to your weekly vids, it's like having a cuppa with a friend. ♥ The skill and speed of that man! Wow! I'm in awe. I wonder what the purpose is of taking the clay up and down a few times before forming the pot...? Centering? Air bubbles? I think, treat the clay thing as a fun activity no pressure to "achieve" just experimentation and play and see where it leads you. Love, love, love ♥the sheep! We have a lot of frog and toad action around our pond, the noise drives my husband nuts in the warmer months when we're sleeping (trying to) with the windows open, he keeps liberating them in the local park lake. An artist friend of mine posts regular updates about his "studio frog" 😃 online. I love Farnham Maltings! Oh my lord! Those ceramics are creeping me out! 😳😱 🤡The texture of your cats is furbulous daaaahling. 😍 You bought a clown baby!!! Seriously, I couldn't sleep with that in the house. 😂🤣😂 Thanks for the tea break, have a great weekend and I'll look forward to seeing your next video. x PS. I hope my ramblings make sense I type along as I'm watching responding to what comes up.
@@tiggywinkle5933 oh that’s music to my ears tiggywinkle! Thank you so much! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my vlogs! I know Mike is a demon on the wheel! It sounds like to me you have quite a bit of knowledge about throwing, I think you’re right about the reasons for teasing the firm up and down the way he did. You’re also right that I should treat it as a bit of fun and just experiment…. I put too much pressure on myself I think and end up ruining the experience! Isn’t Farnham Maltings fabulous? I wish I lived closer to it…where abouts are you…if you don’t mind me asking? The clown baby is a bit scary but cute and goes with the foot I bought a couple of years ago!😆 My friend felt the same way as you about them! 😂🤣 Thank you so much for your ‘ramblings’ they made complete sense, I feel like we’ve just gone out for tea and cake together! It’s so wonderful to have this platform to engage with like minded people…hurrah for the internet!! Take care and enjoy your week. X
@@VictoriaColemanArt I have never thrown a pot in my life, i know nothing. 😂 I live on the opposite side of Guildford to Farnham in the beautiful Surrey hills, although hoping to move somewhere a bit less congested in about 5 years time, I saw a fab property near Ironbridge for sale, two cottages interconnected which would be ideal for us and my parents but we can't do it yet, and then if my daughter starts a family I may find it very hard to move too far away. I've got another vlog you might like, x ruclips.net/channel/UCYQcXLgR3ewnmvtX2G5L1Bg
That pottery fair was on another level 😍 beautiful pieces. At least you had ago working with clay and now know more what's involved if you take it forward. I always fancied having ago at enameling jewellery couldn't find anyone local that did classes, the cost of that would have been expensive to set up if you found out it's something that was a flash in the pan😕 Love the texture you get on your modeling mix as it looks like stone 😍 Have a good week and catch up soon 😉❤x
Lovely Vlog. I enjoyed seeing the pottery exhibition and all your work too. I fully understand your feelings about the ceramic clay. So many things can go wrong in the kiln and it is disappointing. I love your paper clay sculptures anyway. Well done on your recent sales.
@@wastenotwantnotArt thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed it, the exhibition was a real treat! Yes, there are too many variables involved in clay, it’s funny how wanting something else can make you appreciate what you already have! Thank you for loving my paper clay sculptures I’m really enjoying making them! I’m so grateful to Artfinder, it still gives me a great feeling when I sell a painting!
@@mrsbertimus2645 awww! Thanks very much! I just loved the pottery exhibition! His babies are great aren’t they?! I don’t want to brag but I’ve got a foot too! 😜😘
