New Studio

I have just signed a lease on a new studio. It has been wonderful working from home overlooking the beach but my ceramics have spread from the garage to the spare bedroom, the kitchen, the air cupboard and just about everywhere else in the house, so I recently took the decision to look for a studio. A chance encounter with Bianca Padidar (a textile artist) in Pizza Express has led to me renting a large studio (800 sq ft) in a building already occupied by other artists including Bianca. As you can see from the photos it is a bright and light space and will be ideal for working and displaying my ceramics. It even has its own seperate enterance from the other studios in the building, although being part of a small artist community in the building will also be fun. The property is aptly named the Workshop. (I think it used to be a furniture workshop)

I am now in the process of transporting some of my old equipment to the studio and purchasing some new larger scale equipment to fit it out. My daughter has now broken up for her school summer holidays so I am planning to get the studio ready for when she goes back to school. In the meantime I have got to look after my daughter during the school holidays, make more ceramics for the various shows and events in Jersey and get my studio ready!!!
