I met three of the committee after lunch today, plus a blacksmith who makes sculptures from recycled materials...and Damascus steel Sgiain Dhubh!!
We are both "in" , provisionally for a year ..then hopefully carry on.
They like my prints..but really want my pots as well, so I have to sort what I have....
And the Oily One has had a nudge regarding the flue.....the person who will be welding it for him is away this week.. ironically in Scotland!
Cue more sorting in the study....
And they wanted a photograph of me, preferably working.
There is only one, from a long long time ago.
I've always been the one behind the camera!!
But I don't look too different now.
Congratulations! Exciting! I LOVE that photo of you.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful photo x
ReplyDeleteApparently it’s a thing usually the mum, grandmother or other female is the one taking the pictures. So when they pass the family have very little to remember them with.
ReplyDeleteI think you look very industrious working on the wheel.
...great news.
ReplyDeleteWhat great news!!!! And I think that picture is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful photo of you at the wheel. I'm glad the meeting with the committee went well for you.
ReplyDeleteI may have missed where you'll be showing your work - for a year! A gallery in town? Congrats! That's a great photo of you working in clay. And it will require enlisting a very skilled photographer to capture you cutting your designs...a harder topic to display the delicate nature of the work!
ReplyDeleteIt is on a Scottish National Trust property.. Culzean Castle ( check your WW2 history for the USA connection)
DeleteThe stable courtyard has been converted to several shops, the gallery and a café.
Another building holds a decent secondhand bookshop
It is about half an hour's drive out of Ayr
DeleteCongrats! And that's a terrific photo!
ReplyDeleteWell done, great news. Love the photo.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of you working. I love monochrome studies. Congratulations on getting your work accepted.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Wonderful photo!
ReplyDeleteGreat news and well done. That's a beautiful photo. I love the black and white.
ReplyDeleteYay! Good news! I like that picture of you.
ReplyDeleteso pleased to read about your progress, the photo is perfect. Betty
