NEW ONLINE SHOP
The big news this summer is the launch of my new online shop. My wife and son are joining me to keep this part of my business working efficiently, helping with the website maintenance and processing orders.
At the moment there is a small offering of puppies, kittens, fish and a few other categories but I will soon be adding to the range of animals. In the online shop there is a choice of payment via credit card through the website or over the telephone.
You can reach the shop via the menu pad at the top of the page or go to:
www.shop.jjvincent.com
Over the winter months I have given the outdoor Raku firing a rest in favour of working in Stoneware using my indoor kiln.
I have developed a range of small Kittens and Puppies for my lower price range and also have enjoyed making new medium size Lions. The production of some Fish have allowed me to experiment with some nice colours and because they each have their own distinct characters my family can’t help giving them there own names to suit.
I have continued to make my sitting hares of various sizes and have made progress in leaps and bounds with my finishing processes using coloured porcelain slips and oxide washes giving the pieces quite a natural textured look.
