This evening marks the first bisque firing of 2013! The new year brings many new creations and inspirations to eARTh studios. Wednesday evenings are open studio night and this evening we have Erin on the wheel, Susan pinching a pot, Sarah is handbuilding some vessels and Cobi is trimming up some beautiful cups. Wednesday nights are always fun with new faces and different projects on the go every week. Open studio is just that, OPEN to anyone to fill their evening with whatever creation they decide. It is non-instructional so it gives everyone a chance to explore techniques on their own. Come by Wednesday evenings from 7pm – 9pm to join in the fun and let your creative juices flow.IMG_7040

At eARTh studios we are currently working on a large wall hanging of a great blue heron. The wall piece is made up of 56 tiles and measures 38×56. The tiles have been sculpted and carved and soon to be fired in the kiln. Stay tuned for updates on this large scale project in the making.

New to the studio this week we are working with coloured clay. We have tinted some recycled clay with 6 different colours. We now have purple, blue, orange, black, green and pink clays to play with. They can be used to marble your projects or add coil accents and coloured shapes as surface design.
