The first day

HURAH!
Our first day at the Victoria and Albert Museum this was like setting out on a new adventure although a little chilly inside the beautiful new and very clean ceramic studio. This space is open airy and light. We began our explorations in the ceramics gallery spaces with informal introductions and familarising ourselves with the V&A collections search available in each room for anyone to use.

Whilst we were searching for the ceramics department we stumbled across this outstanding ceramic tiled staircase. A particular point of interest to Lee.

Lunch very quickly approached and work finally began once we were happily fed.

We opened the studio for the public the come and visit us between 2-4pm by which time work was fully underway. We even have small test pieces going in to the kiln Monday morning. Not bad for an afternoons work.

See you next Wednesday.....
