| Teaching the next generation |
Absolutely no work done this week as godchildren and friends visiting, 20 for dinner on saturday night! However the children LOVE being in the studio, so we had a couple of days making more tiles for the guest tile gallery, and flower bowls for them all to take home.

It's great to see how quickly the kids pick up the technical terms and know how, and to see how different their work is each year. They don't agonise about what to put on their tiles as the adults tend to, they just put on as much as they can and colour it in. They will happily spend most of a day in the studio now that they know the magic of the transformation of the mallable white clay into a bright, shiny object.

even Ryan our couchsurfer who is taking a break from cycling around europe made a tile. These little momento's are better than photo's and it's amazing how much of ones personality can be condensed onto these little squares.
Ryan has been documenting his travels on his blog
