    I cherish my Wednesday morning classes at Elaine’s Clay Potters Studio - it is my indulging ’ME’ time to create beautiful things and to surround myself with like minded people in a wonderful environment. More than that I have learnt heaps and bounds and continue to learn something new every time, despite having worked with clay for many years. There is a very special energy in this studio which seems to calm the soul and allow our creative juices to flow freely. MY BEST!!
