Today's classes


A very mixed day. Best bit was taking my pate de verre piece out of its mould. I rather like it. Then I made a mould for a pair of ampersands I am planning to lost-wax cast. I feel I must use the opportunity of being amongst casting people to learn how to do it, but in all honesty I didn't enjoy it. It's not my thing.

At Morley College, we had a demo on doing faces which I shall try out at home. I simply can't get on with the equipment there. But at lunch-time we had an inconclusive and not very fruitful conversation about my article in the Guild Newsletter. Wondered if I was nailing my colours to the wrong mast.
