Studio Time

Been in the studio today, and after finishing off some new castings, I took some little vignette photos from around me, can't stop playing with my new phone and camera

Full size John Wayne pop up

Two Britney's, paintings that Sean did around 2000, she's became a tragic icon and now it seems she's back to normality

Small four colour print that we did of a favourite old record cover of mine - study for the large one

Elephants and Ducklings

I've finished off some of the things I've made with my new 'old' moulds.

i particularly like the elephants, and will need to package one up to send to my Dad, who collects elephants
Then I spent a few hours changing round my studio, why didn't I do that a long time ago, its so much better now, still has lots of stuff in it, but it feels more spacious, yipppeeee

Kiln , Tomatoes and Mock ups

picked most of the tomatoes yesterday, so the birds don't get them as they ripen, must get some of that delicious Dairy Maid feta cheese for a salad, the best feta in Houston. They look so nice in a row though, its a shame to eat them! is that weird?
Also got the mock ups done for the show at Antidote, and last night was up late hanging it, the lines are straight, (unlike the ones in the pic ),got these fantastic tensioners, now i want them all over the house!
Also got a new kiln, well, its an old one, that needs some new parts, but hopefully it will all be in working order very soon
yippeee, we're getting the studio sorted, ready for some serious ceramics and t shirt printing

Studio Time

I had a good day today, it was really sunny and hot and it was also mine and Sean's 9th wedding anniversary, and I'm making time to work on my photo show that I'm doing soon with Susan at Antidote Coffee .
I was busy chopping up photos and listening to a good program on BBC Radio, where the DJ Gideon Coe was playing  an hour each of 1979, 1980,1981, so I just had to email him to ask him to play some Specials for me.

 I was more than excited when he mentioned that 'Carole in Texas wants me to play the Specials'!

I never actually heard the song, because I was in and out, but it was nice to get a mention.
