Fabulous hand-made Lotus mugs in Nguni glaze are trotting out my kiln in beautiful Bathurst

These have a wonderful, solid, earthy yet modern feel

It's a lovely time of year. Crisp mornings and warm sun

A commission of old school mugs, jugs, bowls, and sugar bowls

Typical work made upon opening my studio in 1998. I can easily say I have made thousands of these

Thereafter, it became easier to explore creative ideas & techniques

This is muscle memory

The ship of life

Best news in a long time

Hi there IG/FB friend

As a visual communicator, I hasnt been fruitful for a while & had semi migrated to IG

Meta has done to IG what it did to FB

I do agree that even here might be a temporary respite as this is likely to be sold once/if it reaches critical mass

Ooh I know that feeling

Phew. It's going to be quite hard for someone who entered technology after email, around the time FB started

Fortunately, I have a website, but it's going to take a lot of building up of new structures I am not familiar with

True

Sorry, I'm fairly new and unfamiliar with Alt text & its purpose. Please explain why it's needed?

Hi IG friend 🌟

St Johns, Bathurst...The 'elephant wallow' lake is dry and overgrown now

During heavy rains the overflow from what's left of this dip often washes away the gravel cross roads area below

Hello fb friend . Love your creations

A friend lost everything in her house. Another friend lost their business. Gone in smoke

As a descendant of British settlers abandoned in South Africa, I guarantee this is not the case
