It's showtime
On Wednesday, my chum Frank, Murphy the dog and I, went on the long journey to Thoresby Hall, to deliver the pots for the exhibition. It's a fantastic space. Hil and I will be making the journey again tomorrow morning, in time for the opening of the show, which starts at midday. Before I took them away, my friend Jonathan took these photographs of some of the pots that are in the exhibition. There are over seventy pieces in the show - I'm looking forward to seeing it all set out. I'll make sure I get some photos of the show and if anybody out there can make it, it will be great to see you there.
Here's a short video of the sgrafitto jug from my previous post, fired and finished. This pot will be in the exhibition.
Well I've a really early start in the morning, so I'll bid you goodnight. I'll report back soon. Goodnight!
