Whilst eating breakfast this morning, in front of a wonderful photograph by West Kirby photographer Roger Ellison of Little Eye Photography, I was inspired by the stunning autumn colours he captured to colour my latest porcelain sheep. I hope he doesn’t mind! 🐑🍂

Another sheep portrait joining me Oxton Art Fair

Ewe fancy a cuppa? ☕️

A few more shots of this sheep decorated tea caddy 🐑🤎

It nearly fits a whole bag of tea bags….so it kinda sits in the middle of the vote we did back in April : 1. BIG jar ~ fit the whole box, versus 2. SMALL jar ~ I’ll decant as I go ☺️

By the way, this design was inspired by an item I purchased from ( see May post )

Terracotta paperclay ~ slip decorated with wild plantain illustrations.
There are so many really interesting facts about this humble plant, I could write an essay! But this little vase just illustrates the one that matters most to me: sheep love to eat it.
This was my first experiment using the Traditional Old English Decorating Slip Set from Hot Clay and I’m delighted with how it turned out.

Look at that shine 😁

For regular visitors to my flock you will know how I fret about the last stage of each piece of pottery I make : applying that transparent glaze 😬 getting the consistency just right so that it’s transparent and not translucent which will mask all the decorative detail under. 😞
