Blubbing at @KBJWhitstable crying over Peter's beautiful pots and now blubbing because the brilliant @RakuSally has gone out ..! #PotteryThrowdown #emotionalwreck
Mentoring is about being heard & to be heard we must speak with authenticity, specificity & integrity.
It is also, in speaking, risking not being liked.
I love mentoring for its ability to empower creative people. ❤️

Millie-Moo has been 'stick curating' again.
This piece is called "Futility". It represents "the ultimate pointlessness of ambition, representing what is left when ego, clothes and even flesh are stripped away."

We lost Oxfordshire woodturner Richard Shock at the end of 2019 & plans to honour him publicly were scuppered by the first lockdown. As 2021 begins it has been a joy to remember him. A wonderful man, a fine maker & a good friend. makinggoode.com/richard-shoc…

My new website is now live! It has taken lots of work but I'm thrilled with it. Hats off to the brilliant Martyn Allen who created the look & feel. makinggoode.com
There's a blog; 'Celebrated By' (where I can shout about great makers), & info about mentoring & curation.
It turns out I have competition in my family! My mum's dog Millie, otherwise known as Millie-Moo, is an avid 'stick curator'. Every day she chooses the finest example & brings it home. Today's offering is rough-hewn & rustic. 😊
(Next stop #risingstars or @handmadebritain? 🤔)
Blimey, how much do I ❤️ #PotteryThrowdown!!! Glorious Sunday viewing from @Channel4. @KBJWhitstable is the most *perfect* judge, supportive, kind & *so* passionate & emotional about his craft. Handmade heaven.

It was so fantastic being on the selection panel for @newashgate's Rising Stars exhibition yesterday. So much outstanding work to look through. Absolute heaven! I cannot wait to work with all those selected in March.
BIG thanks to the brilliant Outi Remes.

Just 3 available places left in #curatedbydangoode at Handmade Chelsea. I'm seeking textiles, wood, ceramics & paper products. Drop me a line if you'd like to apply.
It's going to be a wonderful show after the awful year we've had.
I'd love to hear from you.

Lovely having a mentoring session with Lizzy Chambers of @LizzysStudio today. If you haven't seen Lizzy's work, take a look.
Blimey I love my work! ❤️
