frost proof ceramic planters

My lovely new kiln!

A real beauty, from Stanton kilns. Couldn't recommend them enough, ever so helpful when making such an important decision!

Harrogate Trade Fair

Just over 2 weeks to go until the British Craft Trade Fair at Harrogate, the pressure is on! My lovely new kiln is now set up and (so far!) behaving well, so I'm just about on track. If you are in the area from 3rd-5th april, then head over to the Great Yorkshire Showground to say hello!

Also lined up is a one day workshop exploring handbuilding techniques in clay. I'm running the workshop on the 9th April from 10.30am til 4.30pm- for more info have a look at my website www.hollybell.co.uk

Venturing into cyberspace...

Hello and welcome to my blog! This is a first for me, and I think it's going to take a while to get the hang of it but fingers crossed!

I am a Brighton based ceramicist, running a studio in Hove with my friend Kathy and making tableware that is hand- thrown on the wheel, and more sculptural wallpieces. I split my time between the studio, walking my dog Bea, and a part time job as an art technician in a school. You could say I like to keep busy...

I plan to use this blog to keep the world informed of my upcoming exhibitions, developments in my work, and the minute trivia of my life. Don't say I didn't warn you.
