Sawpit Studios

Set up our little pop up shop at Craft ACT's pod space today. If you're in the Canberra region over the next couple of weeks come in and say hi. It's at The Hamlet, 16 Lonsdale st, Braddon. We'll be there until the 21st from 10-5. #ceramics #prints #pottery #collagraph #printmaking #handmade #craftact #australianceramics #podspace

Beautiful morning to be stoking a kiln. Starting the final stages of the firing routine at #oldsaintlukesstudio. #anagama #woodfiredceramics #woodfiring #sunrise #woodfiredkiln

65 hours done, somewhere around the halfway mark. #oldsaintlukesstudio #anagama #woodfiring #ceramics #woodfiredceramics

Stoked to have a few cups in this fab show that opened last night @thecupcollab . Check out their gram feed and follow the links to the ONLINE SHOP! Opens at 12pm today, that's in like 33.5 minutes. Or if you're in melbs get along to the show and see it in the flesh. Photo @thecupcollab

Still on the facet train. Playing with some bowl forms that might suit cold noodles as we head into the warmer months.

Kicking out some cups for a sweet show I'm lucky to be part of, @thecupcollab, thanks @adrianachristianson. I've been teamed up with the one and only @zakchalmers. Today was one of those great spring days when having a studio without walls didn't matter at all. #thecupcollab #australianceramics #handmade #pottery

In June last year I had never been to central Australia, now I'm back for the 3rd time in just over a year.

Pots, pizza , mulled wine. Be sure to come out to visit @moraigmckenna, @laughingfrogpot and me at the beautiful old st lukes studio tomorrow. Last day of 'Out of the dragon' as part of steeping up. #steppingupcanberra #woodfiredpottery #australianceramics

Plug time. If you're in Canberra for stepping up, best coffee in town is @barriocc on Lonsdale st, Braddon. They're great supporters of local artists too, using all locally made glass and ceramics.

Celadon cups fresh from the kiln, whoop! Headed for the pot shop at the hamlet, better late than never.

New glaze I've been working on.

Spent most the day drinking lemon and honey sitting next to out slow combustion heater called, Ned Kelly/#ultimate500, but did manage to get these little guys slipped. Love the soft colours and textures of a freshly slipped pots. Hope these tests work. #slip #clayslip #saltglaze #saltfired #woodfiredceramics #australianceramics

After struggling to make pots in the fog and cold of the last few mornings, I'm having fun playing in the sun today. These guys are hopefully going to dry in time to make it into a salt firing at Old Saint Lukes this weekend. #oldsaintlukesstudio #espressocups #espresso #pottery #ceramics #sawpitstudios
