I’ve recently been facilitating workshops with different groups in and around Cirencester. These sessions have been connected with my solo exhibition, Sensational Clay currently on show in the gallery space at New Brewery Arts. On Monday and Thursday I had the pleasure of working with Yr4 students from Robinswood primary school in Gloucester.

The children were split into two groups. I Worked with half the group in Russ’ ceramic studio at the Arts Centre, exploring their ‘Alive alive oh’ cross curricular theme.  We made some lovely pinch-pot mini-beasts and animals in coil-pot habitats.

The other half of the group visited the exhibition with exhibition’s officer Aderyn, an artist printmaker in her own right. The children were encouraged to make, touch and play with the exhibits as well as making observational drawings. The pencil sketches were amazing and I’ve posted a few examples on our facebook page.
