I started work in a new studio on the 31st October. It’s at a farm a few minutes further out into Derbyshire, up into the hills and dales. It’s such a beautiful location, somewhere I’ve been going to for walking and solitude since I was an undergrad in Stoke in the 2000s. It is going to be perishing up there in the winter though!
Aside from markets and other selling events I have mainly preparing the kiln site at the farm for wood firings in the spring. In search of wood suitable for the kiln’s fireboxes, I searched near and far, and eventually found exactly what I need. But sadly it’s halfway across the country!
