Introducing the tutor, Kris Nunn:
It all started in 1969 when we migrated to Australia. I enrolled at Bentley TAFE to do a Pottery hobby class. I was immediately hooked and in no time was building myself a kiln out of house bricks and a home-made oil drip burner. Almost burnt the house down, but I did get the kiln up to almost 900 degrees. Being impoverished, I would sift the ash from the fireplace and dig granite dust from the quarry up at Maddington plus a few extras to make glazes amazing what you can do when you have to!
Introducing the tutor, Wendy Whearem: I started doing pottery about 40 years ago, and have had many other interests over the years. I have always enjoyed drawing and painting. I have done several courses, at private studios, TAFE and Community Centres. Plants and gardens are another passion of mine.
I started coming to the Learning centre about 16 years ago. I have done painting, drawing, silk painting courses here, and have enjoyed them all.
I decided to try the pottery group 12 years ago. I had my creative juices stirred again, had a very good tutor who always had a new project to try, and I really enjoy the hand building side of it.
Now as a tutor myself, it is very rewarding to see people learn new things and to see how pleased they are with their achievements.
