Nic Collins spinning a pot

Here's my mate Nic making one of the big pots destined for his on-line exhibition which starts on 5th of December at 6pm.

He's updating his site every Friday so that you can see the pots in progress. There are some fantastic new images on there of coil throwing techniques, take a peep.



Blogger Andrew's been with him this week helping to fire the kiln containing Nic's work for the CPA Oxford Fair next weekend. I would imagine Andrew will be posting some shots of the action during the next few days - just spoke to Nic on the phone and he sounds really positive about the way the firing went. I think he's unpacking on Wednesday, so fingers crossed for him.

  1. That is just brilliant, Douglas. I've loved Nic's pots for some time, seeing them online here across the pond, but it's great to see him throw. I love it.

  2. Nic's the main man, an amazing potter. I'm pleased he's doing his web site blog - not least because we get to share the 'potter's privilege' that I've just waffled on about in my last latest post.
