Well it’s been busy around here lately to say the least. I’ve been preparing for a completely handmade Christmas this year (i know early, but handmade needs the time), plus a sale coming up in a few weeks and the prep work for a new body of sculptures. An exciting time for sure. But I also found a few minutes to update my website with images from the show at the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery, so if you have a moment please take a minute and head on over for a look, I’d love to have some feedback good, bad, whatever. You can shortcut to the images here.
Cheers!
