Now
What’s keeping me busy these days?
- Back in Mallorca after two months in Seto, Japan, where I completed an apprenticeship with a 13th-generation potter.
- Setting up a studio, I have some new space to work in on the island, more on that later.
- Developing the Ireland chapter of Trace, my long-term site-specific glaze research. Planning specimen collection trips to Fermanagh and the Burren.
- Making more dolls and sculptures.
What's keeping me entertained?
