December happy dance

Wow, that was a big year for PJ Pottery!

I participated in several group exhibitions, gave a few workshops to lovely enthusiastic people and of course, had a wonderful time at this year’s Pottery Road Open Studios as part of the Australian Ceramics Open Studios

I am always trying to challenge myself with more complex forms for my Steampunk teapots, so I was thrilled to win the People’s Choice Award at the 2023 Sydney Teapot Show.

I am extremely fortunate to have a great bunch of students in all of my classes, most are returning next year so term 1 is full. Email me if you wish to go on the waiting list for term 2. If you can’t wait, or can’t commit to a full 10 week course, I am offering a one-day hand building workshop on 14 January, all the details are HERE

My students and I had a delightful end of year party with loads of food, laughs and – just to make sure they were paying attention throughout the year – there was a pottery quiz. I’m happy to report, they got all the answers right! And all of this is reason to do – a December happy dance!

There are a few lovely new pieces in the shop, check out my latest blingy beakers and some recent sweet little teapots.

I really hope you all get the chance to do something you love over the festive season, hang out with people who make you feel good and bring in the new year with loads of positivity.
