Starting the Year with Sharing
I rang in the New Year running Eco Dyeing Workshops at Woodfordia's Bushtime. A wonderful experience in a wonderful place. This month I will be back in the Richard Randall Studio in the Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens. I feel that Pottery and Eco Dyeing have much in common. We both use natural materials and shape … Continue reading Starting the Year with Sharing
No Market this weekend.
Between the lockdown and the weather it's not a good weekend for a market. I'm planning to use the time to add items to the online store. Add a comment if there is a particular item you want to see.

I'm up to something different at the moment. Way back, before I started eco dyeing I did installation art. You know, that big useless stuff that you can't sell. One good thing about doing installations is that it teaches you to think BIG, which is actually useful when it comes to Public Art. I have … Continue reading On other matters Past and Present
