Its only 14 degrees in the studio today and its been raining the past 2 days. As we live in a winter rainfall area, lots of rain in June is not unusual for us. Autumn was beautiful and the vineyards looked absolutely spectacular turning slowly from green to all shades of brown. The vines are bare now and the soil in the vineyards are covered in soft green grass. Beautiful!
I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the kiln today - bright red beads with white polkadots greeted me and the grey, cold day wasn't that bleak anymore! Angelico and Lidihanna worked on new marble beads this week and we can't wait to see them glazed and fired. We are using local terracotta to make them and they will be called Wellies - can you guess why?
