Kiln Fired Art Exhibition



This is a picture of two cabinets displaying our porcelain club's work at an exhibition on show at the moment in a nice central city gallery. The club is the Tauranga Porcelain Artist Association.

Our Exhibition is titled "Kiln Fired Art" and at this present time we are half way through the first week of the two week showing. There have been lots of encouraging comments on the exhibition, and thought you might like to go to youtube to view the 5 minute movie my husband made from photos both he and our son took on the opening day and evening.

Enjoy!

Three beautiful eggs!

These three beautifully painted 2" long bisque eggs were a gift to me from Carol Korros, an American lady who entered into an Easter Egg exchange which took place through the internet and involved people around the world. She also sent me 2 chocolate easter eggs - which taste as nice as they look! I painted an egg and sent it along with some local goodies to a lady who also lives in the USA. I think this is the 5th year I have been involved in a porcelain egg exchange.

Exhibition Invitation

I can hardly believe it is March already ..... and nearly half way through the month!
The last month has been very busy organising on behalf of our porcelain art club an exhibition in a nice gallery, in the centre of our city. This has taken a lot of my time, and I am sure it will be a stunning exhibition.
The invitation above looks a little small on my blog, but to view it larger so you can read the printing click on the picture and it will enlarge it.
It is the first time this particular gallery has hosted a porcelain art exhibition so there has been much interest in the preparation and also in the various ways to advertise the exhibition. So far this has been done electronically through e.mails, physical printings of the invitations which will be left in little piles on tables in hairdressers, waiting rooms of various sorts, boutique counters near the till etc. There will be newspaper coverage and advertising and also local radio interviews.
It is all very exciting and we are expecting a successful exhibition inspiring people to appreciate, collect and learn porcelain art!
