About Tarka Pottery in North Devon

We were lucky to have the talented @eileanelandceramics come over to the studio a couple of years ago to demonstrate and share her sculpting techniques to a handful of hopeful sculptors.

Many large female and animal forms were produced as a result. Since then we have regularly had students trying sculpting for the first time, including Nicola, who was new to clay when she discovered her talent at making female forms.

I’ve been wanting to share her forms for some time. A bevy of beauties don’t you agree?

All created in crank over a couple of morning pottery classes here in the studio.

Fabulous coil pot created by Paul during Tuesday morning pottery class. The pot is about 15cm high and has a lovely curve.
Sometimes the clay just takes you in a direction and in this occasion that’s what happened.

See what you can create if you just play with clay 💕😀

Claire received a Christmas gift voucher from her daughter for a day in the studio. She brought along a couple of friends - another Claire and Vaughn. Using several balls of clay and considerable concentration, all three mastered centering and threw several pots during the session. We’re hoping Claire’s daughter is suitably impressed!

Had a busy old week! Getting back in the studio has been exhausting but we’ve had so much fun! We feel so lucky and grateful to all our fabulous students new and old who have stuck by us and been so patient through the lockdown.

Hope everyone’s taking care on #earthday2021 🌍🌎🌏

We wanted to show you a few ways in which we’re trying to do better here at Tarka Pottery!

We’ve just received our gorgeous new benches made from recycled plastic from @marmaxproducts and day to day we really make an effort! We recycle all leftover clay to be reused, we now run our kiln with our solar panels and we have reduced plastic by using clay pots for slip rather than the plastic tubs we used to have!

LESS THAN 1 WEEK!
We’ll be opening our doors to our Weekly Pottery Class Students next week and we are beyond excited!

Seems like the perfect time for us to reflect on the last 10 years in the studio so we’ve asked some of our students and collaborators to give us an insight into their experiences with us.

In the spotlight this week are Anita and Simon from @fouracrespottery - check out the blog at https://tarkapottery.co.uk/students-and-collaborators-four-acres-pottery/

So happy to see how our pieces came out from the Crystal Glazes workshop with @hobbyceramicraft

We had such a lovely time experimenting and being free with these new glazes and from this firing we’ve really seen how they can be used to full effect!

If you like any of these pieces, be sure to take a look at @valerieandjohnceramics and our etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ValerieandJohn
