The exhibition will include pots which I have created on the wheel here in my home studio along with the skilful botanical drawings done by co-exhibitor, Dianne Frank.
I have been making pots for some time now and am a member of the Oxfordshire Craft Guild. I love being part of the age-old tradition of creating from earth and fire vessels for people to use. My favourite part of the making process is forming that ball of clay on the wheel into a pleasing shape. The stoneware clay I use is very robust and high fired so the the pots are oven and dishwasher proof and can be used and enjoyed for many years.
Dianne is a member of the Society of Botanical Artists and has been awarded a certificate of botanical merit from that organisation. Visitors will be able to watch her at work.
