Scribbly Gums Art

This is our art blog because we thought it was about time to put our artwork onto a separate place!! It is where the bush and creativity meet.

There are two other blogs I regularly update which may be of interest to you also ..... Please come and say hi!!

Tattered Inspirations
(Mixed Media Blog)

A Taste of Honey
(ScrapBooking and Info Blog)

Scribbly Gums Art is named after our property 'Scribbly Gums' which is on the Lower Boro Road between Bungendore and Braidwood.

This blog is an ongoing celebration of those things and
will display Phil and my passions - art, painting, sculpture, mosaics, pottery, photography, mixed media and iron.....

Come and enjoy the art ..... and leave a comment - we would love to hear from you!

At last a few pics of pottery


I feel as though last year was a merry go round with me holding on for dear life. Hence I have been totally slack and not uploaded photos like I should - but here we go - some photos of pottery that I hope you will love

So here are a few of my lanterns - unfortunately the glaze was a bit ho hum - not what I expected - but I am happy with the shapes and they look wonderful at night!

Swirls Lantern

Gumnuts Lantern
Gumleaves Lantern

Nesting Bowls - I have produced a few sets of these and they are very useful
Some special people have received them as gifts

Un-nested!

All together

This is my first teapot - I am rather happy with it

Like the shape and the wheat decoration
And whats more - it pours well!

Some jugs ............lots of sizes and lots of fun to make


White patterned jugs - I really like these patterns on them


I love the shape of the little one - would look cute with flowers
And the rim of the large one is really sturdy (I found this from You-tube and thought I would try it)

Last ones - the swirly one unfortunately is handle free - a little oops in the studio
But I do love the swirly pattern

That's it for a while - I begin pottery again in Feb and hopefully will do some throwing on my wheel before then..... we never know

Lots of love

That comment above was supposed to be by me. But I didn't know my husband was signed onto his account on my computer. Sorry for the confusion. Wyanne

Hi Carol. Good to see you over at KRR class too! You look like a talented lady - love your scrapbooking, your magnets and your pots! The wheat pattern on your teapot looks fantastic and I can't believe that is your first teapot! Proportions look great.
