Judith was in Canberra last week for a family wedding and seized the opportunity to visit Auckland ceramic artist John Parker who is working on a new body of work as artist in residence at the Australian National University in the School of Art ceramics workshop.
The sump-oil fired black work he has produced is quite amazing…
See his fascinating blog…
