It often amazes me how out of things seemingly unsightly, dull and ugly, beauty emerges. I have mentioned a spot we often visit and which is home not just to a fabulous spot for eating lunch, but is also the working gallery and home to a glassblower and his artist wife.
An artist’s place of work is one of contrasts: apparently untidy, seemingly uninspiring, but very organised.

Consequently, I thought that those photographs would be and interesting entry into Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge.
I will share more of David Reade and his team at work in another post.
