The Craft Council of Newfoundland and Labrador is having its AGM this weekend. Tomorrow is set aside for studio tours and picnics, and I get to go! (Last time I was stuck in town minding the shop. I did not get to see the Grumpy Goat Gallery, or meet the sheep.) There are only two stops planned this year, but one of them is Nicola Hawkins’ studio, and I am very excited about that. She had a show in the gallery a while back and it was amaaaazing, and I want to see her space.
Field Trip!

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
