Yesterday we had the pleasure of an out to to visit the Studio of Lisa Skog. Please check out Lisa's website to find out more about her art, pictures and where her art is available by clicking on her name above.
Lisa is a wonderful ceramic artist who has been published in books, has work in numerous galleries, is involved in the Hamilton Potters Guild and is a very good friend.
Often we see posts or in books to become a better artist to try something out of our normal medium of choice.
Well yesterday after trying and being thwarted by bad weather etc. we finally made it to Lisa's to view her studio, learn about her work and have a try at creating a few pieces from a flat slab of clay.
Here we are working intently in our own style.

Lisa's studio was sunny, the tea was delicious and we felt so uplifted to have this day out in our cold January weather.
Who knows there may be some more collaborations in the future!
Do you ever do a collaboration with an artist inside your medium or outside?

Lisa has graciously offered to glaze them in our preferred colours. They will first have to be fired in the electric kiln so she can glaze them. And then she is going to raku fire them for us. This is a special process and it is not safe to have outsiders or basically people who are not trained involved with this process.
When the finished product is done I will post a few pictures. This may take a while considering Lisa needs to have a good day to fire the raku kiln and work into her schedule.
Then we have to get busy and create a piece of art with our collaborative ceramics.
