Hi Blue Sky! Thanks for a welcoming first week here. Sunset, 2024
Stoneware ceramic, glazes.
It’s a one-off for me. See it at qathet art centre until Feb 22 in the show “Present”.
Also spot on for this week’s theme: light. #blueskyartshow We’ve been graced with a whole month of it on the wet coast!

First batch of slip casted fingers was a success.
They will be part of a sculpture, some have been modified after the slip cast, which I didn’t know I could do.
Peace out!
