Contemporary Fine Art Bindings

Tuesday 29 April 2008

In reflection one can not be all to everyone.

The last student has gone home, her work well on the way. Now for my selfish time, when the benches are cleared and I can work. Commissions need to be finished, exhibition work to be completed and plans made.

What is important, what makes me do what I do. Perhaps it can be summed up in a few images.



Teaching in Studio 5



Exploring new techniques and methods.



Teaching abroad with no translators, art and craft being the common language.



And the realisation of form, function and aesthetic. The Book .

  8. Dearest Dash, I only drink in moderation.....one glass at a time. It is something to do with only having one mouth.


    Do you have any tips on drinking that you would care to share with the class ?
