The lady who owned it is now in her late eighties and she tracked me down to ask if I wanted it back as she was moving house and thought I might be interested in it. I decided to buy it back to give to my daughter Lisa as she is an avid collector of Aussie pots from the 60's on. Its from 1978 so I think this one qualifies for her collection. Val's daughter in law brought it over from Adelaide earlier in the week and met me in Ballan with her sister on their way up to Creswick this morning. I'm most grateful to Val for contacting me and for going to all the trouble of getting it to me through her family members.<br />

It's a bit of an elabotate affair. It's quite a large teapot so I made it to sit in a saddle so it can be poured without lifting it. It also has a diffuser incert. I only made about 6 of these and this one was possibly the largest of them. It's overall height is 39 cm</div>

I showed mainly pots but also some of my paintings. I'm putting a couple up here. I hope I get a comment or two soon . The first one is called "Collected Thoughts" Its about 500cm x 800cm and is in oils. The others are larger about 1200cm x900cm and are in oils but some of the large areas of colour are handmade oils using ochre, iron oxide, manganese dioxide and chromium oxide. They are oxides I use in ceramics so i blended them with oil painting mediums and ground them in a morter to produce my own earth colours. i hope you like them.I know I get a few hits but no comments at all so I'm loosing interest in the blog a bit. Any sort of feedback would be nice.</div><div> </div></div></div>Stephen Fletcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07228107337556213581noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7722113933077419385.post-46370101168463666702010-08-01T00:16:00.000-07:002010-08-01T00:29:07.099-07:00Preparing my Presentation for Wyndham August Arts<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6CGHCUiZhQM2voluewQ8w9Pb8ptTzXrxxPdhwsNj-cLao6pMpN7mr1TKYrsN2pmzsOu9hM1TW7zMlY9vm89MRvJctAJQzUjBiq2AwgyvX80ENXjrZkU4xMW1m_DE-Z4QHhP8SlQxswhs/s1600/powerpoint+pics+017.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 279px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500339211390609090" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6CGHCUiZhQM2voluewQ8w9Pb8ptTzXrxxPdhwsNj-cLao6pMpN7mr1TKYrsN2pmzsOu9hM1TW7zMlY9vm89MRvJctAJQzUjBiq2AwgyvX80ENXjrZkU4xMW1m_DE-Z4QHhP8SlQxswhs/s400/powerpoint+pics+017.JPG" /></a> I took digitals of these old colour and B/W photographs from around 1982 to add to a powerpoint presentation I'm getting ready for August Arts.

These are some random shots of their fantastic gallery in the main street of Beechworth and a couple of Judy doing a workshop at the studio, One Tree Hill Pottey. I first met Judy back in 1978 when we were both involved with the Victorian Ceramic Group. Now that I'm back in the studio I have joined The Potters Gallery Beechworth. So get up there and pay them a visit. There are plenty of nice places to stay and plenty of choice for eating/drinking. The rack of lamb at the Commercial was excellent as was the slow cooked beef at the little place next door,. just two doors from the gallery. <br /><a href='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCSJ94h1MZVnGeMiCp71hZ_8nLee2dhZjlVXTk1hyphenhyphen1xSZftE8dGKb-Na0sQLNGZLNaKCj0JyczHFHDFGq1VppKWul6tQVHWl4tUYFxg7dY743FLN10c1eWgUjYdlslnteYAHNRxBOFIVM/s1600/beechworth+017.JPG'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCSJ94h1MZVnGeMiCp71hZ_8nLee2dhZjlVXTk1hyphenhyphen1xSZftE8dGKb-Na0sQLNGZLNaKCj0JyczHFHDFGq1VppKWul6tQVHWl4tUYFxg7dY743FLN10c1eWgUjYdlslnteYAHNRxBOFIVM/s400/beechworth+017.JPG' border='0' alt=''style='clear:both;float:left;

This is the two chambered catenary arch kiln I built in Sunbury in 1978 and used until 1984. I fired to stoneware in the large chamber and the the heat passed through the small chamber before entering the chimney. I could divert all or some of the heat through the small chamber depending on if I was using it for bisque or glaze. 1300 deg C in the large chamber would produce about 800 in the small one. I could then close off the large chamber with a damper and bring the small kiln up to bisque at about 1000 deg C with it's own burners. I was able to fire in any configuration. Both to stoneware or either one to stoneware while the other was empty or loaded with bisque. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi586B7iFx2FsyDai4JPMv7HLDQVuS8dS9u8TlevpFMnoRf4FCTmr73lFPaQ60wVfJi15qwSelmUYd4nZ0zWwPCQ-zsrgeiK65yeXPAFLXCnaxtbpfw3B8a1ZkanM05GC4XC9SHj3CSBgI/s1600/new+photos+70909+061.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi586B7iFx2FsyDai4JPMv7HLDQVuS8dS9u8TlevpFMnoRf4FCTmr73lFPaQ60wVfJi15qwSelmUYd4nZ0zWwPCQ-zsrgeiK65yeXPAFLXCnaxtbpfw3B8a1ZkanM05GC4XC9SHj3CSBgI/s160/new+photos+70909+061.JPG" style="clear: both; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /></a> This post was supposed to appear after the Welcome one but I can't figure out how to move them.<br />
