A gift of time and Moving Clay
Bemoaning the fact that I have had so little time for my painting recently and how was I ever going to get the piece I was hoping to finish for a submission at the end of march done, my lovely partner took the kids into town to get new school shoes and then on to the supermarket, giving me 3 wonderful unexpected hours, what a gift.
I have left the painting for the competition/exhibition a little late as I was not going to submit but the group I joined in September, Moving Clay have been asked by the organisers to support the event and enter.
Moving Clay is a multi-disciplinary art group they were originally started by a group of ceramicists but as the group is much larger now and as the majority of members work in 2d it was felt a name change was needed. We voted on a new name at our meeting on Thursday and if the absent members agree by e-mail we will have a new name and a new website to launch at Macclesfield’s fab Barnaby festival in June. I did rather like the name Moving Clay but people did keep asking if I was now doing pottery when I mentioned them, so I suppose things change.
