Very much a work in progress... But my first ever standing dragon is actually standing (at least for the moment!) Wish me luck as I keep tinkering with this one!

Back from a fab weekend workshop with Paul Smith Sculptures at The Ceramic Studio. Paul was super at sharing his knowledge and experience, and the facilities were great. I even managed to get Pauls sculpture kit through airport security and under the seat on the flight home! Now I just need to decide what to make first...?!

My technology failed me yesterday and this video didnt upload... 😭
So here's a quick peek into what I was doing yesterday in the pottery - big dragons...!
These werent quite finished, and they will take weeks to dry before they are safe to put in the kiln and not explode - and I will be devastated if any of them dont make it - but so far I think they look pretty good! 🐲πŸ₯°πŸ€ž
