For ever I have been a doodler - when I'm on the phone, in a meeting or on my own at lunch I sit and scribble away. I quite like my little pictures and have been trying to find a way of working them into my ceramics. I've tried painting with a brush but I can't get the same feeling or quality of line. This morning I decided to have a play with a bit of inlay. I scratched some lines straight into the unfired pot, filled them with coloured slip and scratched it back to reveal - yay - my little pictures. I'm a bit excited about this. It feels the most me out of anything I have done.
