Been experimenting with onglaze lustres recently. This one is picked out in copper.

As described in the previous post, one of the ten plates for Paul Smith. The sentiment I realise is a bit optimistic, especially considering most English summers, but there is an option come late september to change it to 'Thanks. . . for nothing !

Now then now then

This year I have worked on a set of 4 printed and lazercut cards with Roger La Borde ! Howzaboutthen Guys and gals !!!

Now that I am getting used to my new kiln I am feeling a bit more confident regarding all things ceramic. I plan to make up some transfer decals for plates, so at the moment it's all things circular !!!!

Here is another tile straight out of the new kiln.

A new tile.

I Know it's already March, but if anyone would like one of my lasercut desk calenders then please send an A5 SAE envelope to me at : The Mangle, 5 -10 Crown Works, Temple Street, London E2 6QQ.

In 2007 I started to make tiles again and enjoyed it so much I have recently invested in a bigger and better kiln. My old one had no thermostat so firing was very much a hit and miss affair, so hopefully there will be a bigger range of better tiles. Here is the first effort from the new kiln - the first in a series with bells on.

Did you know that CLOTHKITS the wonderful pattern producing company is being relaunched. The lovely Kay has asked me to do a design to go on a dress for her and it has been pure pleasure from the word go ! Here's to Kay ! And here's to ClothKits !!

A3 Screenprint for Valentines Day

The Wonderful Walters shoes of Sunny Porthcawl have made this jolly card from a papercut I was commissioned to make for them.

The Arts Council commissioned me to do their Xmas card this year. What starts out as a strange thick little folded card unfolds to become a xmas message and then further unfolds to reveal itself as a piece of wrapping paper. There is a serated edge along the top fold so that you can tear the card bit off and be left with just the wrapping paper. I guess this a pretty good way of having another use for a xmas card.

A bad photo of a new papercut.

I have been working on a little stand up calender for Trilogy Lasercraft for next year.

2 commissioned lasercut Xmas cards for Julian Vogel at Modus Publicity and The Quarry Editing facility, both based in London Town.

Happy Xmas Card !!!
