Workshop Update

Its been a while since I’ve added to my blog, apologies for the absence but its been for good reason. I’ve been busy working on new pieces and planning new strategies for my little micro business. You may need to bear with me whilst I organise a few changes to the website.

With the support of Cultivator Cornwall I’ve been working on a short film with film maker Florence Browne. We managed to choose a stunning day of autumn sunshine to film in my workshop and local area. Can’t wait to see the results - fingers crossed I can share the final cut on my website very soon.

On top of that I’m also making pieces for a photoshoot with fabulous photographer John Hersey. I’ll have a whole new collection of images to share with you in the not too distant future.

All these plans have got me thinking about what I do and why I do it. I’ve made an early new years resolution (yes - very early!) so I can share this with you on my blog. I’m planning on focusing on behind the scenes stories from the workshop. I do this already on Facebook and Instagram but I’ll be able to give you more detail here. Keep an eye out - you might just learn something!

Before I forget I should also let you know that I’m only doing one live Christmas event this year. I’ll be in Deveron village hall in Cornwall for Creek Arts Christmas Fair on December 4th. Hope you can make it along!

Meanwhile, orders and bespoke commissions continue coming in on the run up to Christmas. There’s a definite change in shopping habits going on with many people planning well ahead of the big day. Its gratifying to note that small businesses are being well supported in these tricky times so this is a good time to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you for showing an interest in my work. I really appreciate you reading this blog, browsing my website, following me on Instagram or Facebook (@esthersmithartist) and, of course, adding my pieces to your personal collection or your Christmas list!

Thanks for reading!
