Away from the workshop for the next week on a wee working break in the East Neuk of Fife.
Today I replaced an old bench in Innergellie Woods, Kilrenny with this lovely one made from Douglas Fir supplied by Robyn.
Friday to Sunday you will find me at Anstruther Harbour Festival then I will be hanging about in Elie for a few days enjoying food from Ardross Farm Shop | Local Food & Produce | East Neuk | Fife

A huge thank you to the organisers of Largo Arts Week and Pittenweem Arts Festival for all the hard work that goes into making these wonderful events happen.

And, of course, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who came along to see my work, chatted with me, asked questions and showed such lovely support. It was a real pleasure to share my work with you all.

Your interest, encouragement and kind words mean so much to me and make all the time and effort that goes into creating each piece so worthwhile.

Thank you for being part of it and I hope to see many of you again at future event. Next up for me is Anstruther Harbour Festival, 28th to 30th of August.

I am at venue 14, 9 Viewforth Place with the lovely Anita of StewArt Studio. Here until 5pm today if you want to come say hi.

This is one of the pieces made from the wavy grained Burr Elm I shared earlier. With the live edge forward you have a statement side table, with the smooth edge forward you have a stunning stool.
Get yourself along to to see this piece and so much more. We are in The Crusoe Largo.

Want a chance to own a unique piece of art while helping Maggie's Centres?
Many of the artists taking part in Largo Arts Week have decorated one of .clayart's ceramic seagulls.

Our entry is number 47 and was inspired by memories of family trips to beach and eating chips out of good old fashioned newspaper. Still think they tasted better.

The fundraiser is a silent auction which ends on the 26th July. To see all of the wonderful creations and place your bid go to https://uk.givergy.com/SelkirkSeagulls

The Selkirk Seagulls’ auction was launched a week ago today and we’ve already raised bids to the value of £2275. With 16 days until the end of the auction there’s plenty of time to make that figure significantly higher.
