Lisbon International Contemporary Exhibition (6th - 12th October 2018)

10/10/2018

It's been a hectic few months and another steep learning curve, but glad to say that all my pieces were (eventually) delivered safely to the Lisbon International Contemporary Exhibition held at Atelier Natalia Gromicho in Lisbon, Portugal. 
Unfortunately due to work and family commitments I've not been able to attend in person,
but the photographs from the exhibition look great.

Beach Pots

A day out at the seaside, take the dog for a walk on the beach, a break from the pottery, no clay............. I don't think so.............!
Fraisthorpe beach, near Bridlington - lovely wide sandy beach, lots of space for our dog to run, not many people, wild North Sea and low clay cliffs.
​Did I say CLAY cliffs"?
​Yes - that would be the boulder clay, formed by deposition from melting glaciers and ice sheets and containing many pebbles, stones and boulders. Now there's a challenge............

​
So after collecting several pocketful's of loose clay (brought down by ongoing coastal erosion) and some sand and sea glass, I returned to the studio -
