Not as much as a CV....
"I have been making in clay for nearly 60 years, on and off.
I studied ceramics at Cardiff College of Art. I have worked for several potters including David and Margaret Frith.
I established my first clay studio in 1981.
I moved to Scotland from Wales in 2012 and returned to relief printing as until now I had no facilities to work in clay"
Short and sweet.
Today's gallery set up went well.
Meeting half a dozen other members of the cooperative...having lunch at staff prices in the café! Pricing my work....not easy!
Easier when you can do the sums...
Materials + Time + profits = wholesale price.....
Courtyard door looking towards Culzean Castle
And sunset tonight
Night all...its been a long day!
...I wish you good selling.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing I hate more than having to price my work, even with a formula. Hope the lunch was fun!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe anything other than great success for you! Keep the faith, baby! (It's an old expression in our land. : ^)
ReplyDeleteOh, I wish I could come visit to see! (And have lunch.)
ReplyDeleteThis is very exciting!
ReplyDeleteI wish you much success in this project.
ReplyDeleteLong but productive.
ReplyDeleteCharming portico and a very atmospheric last light photo. Don't forget to throw the value of art into your calculations.
ReplyDeleteI feel quite excited for you. It is all working out so well. Enjoy yourself x
ReplyDeleteWell done. You are ready for sales. Don't forget to factor in what your competitors are charging for similar items. It might add to your pricing.
ReplyDeleteI have been taking the advice of the other potter in the group ( the chairman and a friend)... inflation from fifteen years ago...😳
DeleteWell, it's good to get all that done and be on your way! I hope it all goes well!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear how it goes for you!
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for you.
