This weekend is the brilliant @openstudiosbham where many artists open their homes & studios to showcase their work. This year they have an excellent new app with all the locations and artists listed - a great way to support local artists and maybe get something for your wall. https://t.co/v3ImKnyw20
Love how the @rbsagallery has displayed my floral
inspired collection of handthrown porcelain vessels, glazed in sea-green, soft pink, turquoise and white.
One week to go to @openstudiosbham where I’m taking my ceramics to @nook_kingsheath. A great opportunity to see artists working in their studios or exhibiting from an artist hub.
