Update

A number of people have contacted me, and let me know that I have been remiss - this last year.
Yes -a whole year.
I have to say it's been busy.  A whirlwind to say the least.

And so, here goes...........

Green Dragonfly Pottery (me) has been very busy.  I've been to numerous shows.  Done a few gallery shows and joined a co-op of other artists.

A new chapter is about to begin in 2013..........

I have just rented a building in Sarnia with a friend, and we are going to use the space to showcase our work, and the work of a few other local artists.   
We don't have a name yet - but we are working on it.
The hopes are to have it open by February (the worst month of the year to open a business).

For now - we are planning.  January 1st we will start painting, and wish us the best that this flies.

Back to pottery:

Here are a few dragons.   I can't keep them in stock.  People take them right out of my hands as I'm trying to take pictures.  My dragons are now in collections all over North America and some have even made it to England:


These aren't the best pictures.   I didn't get a chance to put them into a lightbox and photograph them as I usually do.   These went from kiln to table - and sold within minutes.  The two larger dragons have real gemstones on them - these were very popular.   Some,  I couldn't even get pictures of, while I was changing the batteries in the camera - people were walking away with them.

There is a new clutch of babies hatching in the studio right now - they should be ready to go in the new year.


Here is a picture of some of my pottery at the co-op.  Not really stuck on glass shelves - but hoping to have some new shelving units in the new year.



This is a picture of my daughter Brittany's Chainmaille Jewellry also at the co-op.  She does some awesome dragons in chainmaille.   I will have to get pictures soon and post them here.


That's about all for now - short and sweet.   I have to get some Christmas decorating done tonight - and try to finish a few projects tomorrow.   There just never Seems to be enough time to get everything done.

Merry Christmas - and Happy New Year to Everyone.
