ceramics- handmade tiles
I have been making handmade tiles and run my own studio. My website is www.earthmaidtiles.com if you want to see my work. I am new at this Skype thing and this looks like fun, so hope it works too. I can describe how to make tiles from the casting of the moulds, manufacturing and firing of them. My kiln operates on single phase electricity and is 8cubic ft in size. I am not a huge business, so I dont do anything mass produced, all my tiles are really HAND made. I market the things I make at small shops and arts and craft markets. I also make tile framed mirrors and intricate mosaics using my tiles.
I have been doing pottery all my life and I am 45years old this month. I have a teaching diploma from Barkly House in Cape Town South Africa 1985, where I included ART as my favourite subject for 3 years.
I have been running my own small handmade tile business for 10 years now, and it has been quite challenging in the SA market, which is SMALL, but I know that foreign tourists visiting our coastal town have been my best customers, and I have had to send tiles to the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland – all sorts of places, because they had to have MY handmade tiles, nothing like them anywhere in the world.
