Rhubarb











I have spent the last couple of weeks making some Rhubarb forcers and outside pots. I was really pleased that I found a way to put my beetles onto the outside pots. I thought of using a bit of Lustre but have experimented with some gold leaf as a trial. I dont know how durable this will be. Unfortunately I need to return the wheel I borrowed to do the job so this is the last of my outdoor pots for now - till I can afford a Shimpo.
Just as well as I need to make some work for the Northern Potters exhibition at Rufford Craft Centre - 30th March to 9th May. They have asked for glazed slip and scraffito stuff so I need to stop getting distracted with other things now. Also beginning to panic about setting up for the BCTF in April as I dont have enough work and I have to do it 'all on my own'.
Will be staying with some old family friends which should be really good.
back to the grindstone then.
