Making at Artcore

Most weeks we spend a couple of hours at Artcore doing our own thing with their equipment and support.  Beth is working at the wheel determined to get the knack of centring the clay, everything else comes relatively easily to here but this is difficult requiring firm but delicate pressure to an exact degree.

I am still working on my wire horse, it seems to be taking for ever but we had a break of about 6 weeks in the summer, I am very much enjoying the process which is completely new to me.

Ilam and Dovedale: Friday Walk

Something Beth has longed for has recently been organised by an enterprising home edder so on Friday we went on our very first of what I hope will be a long series of monthly Friday walks.

We met in the car park at Ilam and took a track that was supposed to take about 2 hours, four hours later we marched into the tea room for a very welcome cup of tea.

Here are some pictures of our route.  And us.
