I painted this bone china mug more than 30 years ago. After being fired it went to a family friend. I was amazed to find that it's been used, treasured and survived all these years. It was part of a set. It's companion was broken but there is still a teapot #artadventcalender #chinapainting

I'm not a trained artist but I do enjoy painting. One thing that has really helped me is Van Gogh's Bedroom in Arles. I traced the main components and then tried to mix colours and add details. For the first time I felt I truly looked at the painting and this exercise gave me so much confidence

Sculpture progress pic. I've taken off the tip of my (clay) horse's nose so I can shorten it. I love how clay is so forgiving #artadventcalender #pottery

What a treat #artadventcalender is, with so much inspiration. Here's one of the sculptures I'm working on. Lots to do still... The nose is too long so I need to shorten it for starters. I'm very new to sculpture but I've wanted to try a horse head for a very long time #pottery

If you passing are anywhere near Hertford before Christmas it is well worth checking out the incredible knitting decorating the Christmas tree in the marketplace. So many beautifully knitted characters having fun at Cinderella's ball #yarnbombing

Powerful and so very true. And the same applies, I'd say, to other chronic illnesses. Chronic illness is isolating

Did you know that by substituting your morning coffee with green tea, you can eliminate up to 93% of what little joy you have left?

Maurizio Cattelan’s duct-taped banana artwork fetches US$5.2m at New York auction.
I’ll sell you one for £3.5 million and chuck in the house it’s taped to.
Bargain!

My first attempt at a head has just been bisque fired. No idea of the best way to glaze so need to have a think. Looking forward to finding more pottery inspiration on here #pottery
