Salamanca Arts Centre – Between the Tidelines

Salamanca Arts Centre – Between the Tidelines

I would so love to be attending Henrietta Norris's Artist Talk at this event on Wednesday, if only Tasmania was not such a jump from Western Australia. Look at her work, she has worked long and hard to achieve these wonderful results. I cannot wait to see more photos of the exhibited work.

Ceramic Arts Association of Western Australia

Whoopsie!  I wrote a posting here about the new website for CAAWA - the Ceramic Arts Association of Western Australia.  That was in May 2011 - I told you I hadn't done much blogging last year, and it seems that I actually forgot to hit the PUBLISH button.  Not too smart of me but to err is human and all that jazz.  Anyhow, check out CAAWA, it provides a good overview of the variety of potters here, many are woodfirers, some are strictly porcelain bods and there are plenty of other varieties.

Here is some work by Janis Heston - yet another potter who lives very close to me, and they are all so NICE too.  Lucky me.  

I have just spotted an ad on TV for this

Online Ceramics is for anyone who loves hand made contemporary studio pottery. Every piece is individually chosen to give you the very best examples of the artists work.  This is a great place to research the ceramics scene today.  Here we have the late Emmanuel Cooper with an example of his volcanic glazes, a particular interest of mine.  He certainly left his mark on British contemporary ceramics.

I thought this was an apt description of what we do ..

I believe it was Anne-Maria Plevier who said of potters ...

We may look mild mannered and conservative, but we are in reality a bunch of risk taking pyromaniacs who constantly put all our eggs in one basket.
