I had a meeting today with a chap from
the National Trust, to discuss what facilities I need
and where I want them.
a Blank canvas of a workshop.
I'm all excited but also very nervous.
As most potters would do at this stage I ask myself
" what would Bernard Leach do ?".
and so inevitably I turn to the
"Bernard Leach a Potters Book"
for inspiration.
and sure enough I find it
"An individual potters workshop means more to him than a mere setting where the routine of production can conveniently go on.
Here he has to seek and weigh new ideas, comparing them and his finished work with the standards of the past and the needs of the unborn future."

I think the blank canvas is very inspiring. Pretty sweet space.
Do you know how long it will take for the new studio space to come together>
Wow what a space! so much potential...
Hi Guy's,
it's great to have such a great space to turn into a workshop. as for timings. the National Trust are planning to have the electrics and lights sorted by Jan 2010. and I'm hoping that once I can move in with help from local villagers I should have the place ready to pot in within a week.
looking forward to see what the space becomes. Exciting stuff!
