On the fifteenth of October I went to a South Wales Potters meeting at Micki Schloessink's Bridge Pottery in Cheriton, Gower, near Swansea.We discussed making, firing and selling , and watched Micki making.
One she made earlier!
The spacious workshop, warmed by a woodburning stove, where we tried two of the clays that she imports from near La Bourne in France.
I made a horse in the "Terre Primitif", which is actually a made body!
The kiln is warmed by propane then fired with wood
Discussing glaze tests
