Mashi is painting this beautiful tea set... here are the first few pieces finished! Gorgeous work; can’t wait to see the whole set completed.

Mark’s ‘smiley faces’ are so colourful and eye catching!

Fiona has now completed her beautiful Icon. Painted on a VERY large tile, this icon has been fired around 5 times. Yesterday, Fiona agate etched the gold halo to give it this radiating shine. Can’t wait to see it framed!

The term has got off to a flying start... here are some student pieces finished off during the first few weeks of this term... Josi’s Satsuma Style vase is taken from Terry D’Aprano’s ‘Anglicised Satsuma Design’.., this is always a popular project in the classes!

Lucia’s lovely icons (hand painted on porcelain plaques) framed and on the wall in her house. They look lovely Lucia Jacqueline Aldridge!

The term has got off to a flying start.....

Lovely work Mark!

Mark has his own China painting FB page now; take a look!

Last day of term today.. lots of lovely pieces are going in the kiln this weekend. Here is a collection is some of the student work already finished this term. What a variety of styles and techniques! Sadly Nasia is going back to Cyprus this summer ... we will all miss you in the lessons, Nasia!

More beautiful finished pieces, this time by Mariko, Rebecca, Nicky and Nasia, and still 4 weeks of term to go!

We are not yet half way through the term and already here are some beautiful finished pieces.

Looking at the large 52cm plate I painted in 1996 using the design of the North transept Rose Window of the Notre Dame. This was my interpretation for the Paris themed competition at the Paris Convention and for which I was awarded the first prize. It means even more to me today. I hope this beautiful window survived.

The spring term has now come to an end and here are just some of the lovely pieces that were finished off during the last few weeks. The summer term will begin on the 23rd April. Happy Easter 🐣
