A visit from Louise Waller Ceramics

We were thrilled to welcome Louise Waller Ceramics to our studio for a memorable visit. Her presence was a breath of fresh air, filling our creative space with enthusiasm and expertise. As the sun shone brightly on a particularly hot and sunny day, Louise took to the pottery wheel with her characteristic grace and skill, crafting a beautiful mug and a tumbler.

Watching Louise work on the wheel was inspiring. Her deft hands moved with precision and ease, shaping the clay into elegant forms. The sun that day was a vital tool that meant we were able to trim and set the mug to dry within a couple of hours.

Louise didn’t come empty-handed. She generously brought along vintage copies of Ceramic Review magazine. These treasures are a goldmine of ideas and inspiration for all our students, sparking new avenues for creativity and exploration in our community. The pages of these magazines are filled with timeless techniques and innovative designs, sure to elevate the work of everyone in our studio.

Our time with Louise wasn’t just about work, though. We had the chance to sit down over coffee and engage in rich conversations about pots and glaze techniques. These discussions were as valuable as any hands-on lesson, offering insights into the art and craft of ceramics that only someone with Louise’s experience could provide.

Her visit left a lasting impression on all of us. The blend of practical demonstrations, shared resources, and heartfelt conversations created an enriching experience that we will cherish. We are already looking forward to the next opportunity to welcome her back and continue our exploration of the fascinating world of ceramics together.

Thank you, Louise Waller, for your visit. Your passion and knowledge have left an indelible mark on our studio and our hearts.
