A busy day in the workshop!
Last Saturday (19/7/21) I was a bit sad that the lockdown had caused me to cancel my clay workshop in Buninyong. While absolutely necessary, the timing was awful! So, Chris lit the fire and we spent a lovely cosy day together surrounded by metal flowers, wire, tools and the odd vino.
We had a huge amount of fun making this prototype of the metal wreaths. I got to try out my metalwork skills (which were nonexistent and now I'm slightly better!) Working with the wire was a new thing, and I'm terribly lucky to have all the equipment close at hand, plus a patient teacher. The skills I learn making these will also help in making larger clay sculptures, as I can create sturdy armatures.
I'm loving the twirly wire!!!
