Glazing & Firing Your Pottery Once your painted pottery arrives back at our studio we will glaze and fire it for you. ​ This usually takes 7-14 days (depending upon the quantities we have to fire) so please keep this in mind if you are painting. pottery as a gift for a special occasion. Firstly we dip your pottery in a liquid glaze which will give it a gorgeous, shiny and hardwearing finish. ​ Once the glaze is dry we fire your pottery in our kiln at temperatures around 1000 degrees! Your pottery is very special to us and we treat it with the utmost care however sometimes the kiln gods are not on our side and pieces crack in the kiln or develop glazing imperfections due to dust particles in the air. ​ We do our very best to prevent such problems but ceramic firing can be a little unpredictable at times (that's what makes it so exciting!). ​ Should there be a problem with your pottery (thankfully it is pretty rare it happens) we hope you will understand and we will offer you voucher to paint again.

Caricature by Mike Giblin Wendy Reed aka The Creative Chicken Wendy Reed is a mixed-media artist and Level 4 certified Powertex tutor based in Northumberland. A fully qualified teacher with over 10 years classroom experience, Wendy decided to leave her full time role in education in 2009 to become a self-employed artist. Her first studio was based in Cramlington, in south east Northumberland where she taught everything from papercraft and wreath making to mixed media. “I’ve always had ‘claggy hands’ as we say her in Northumberland” says Wendy, “It took me a long time to find the right art medium for me. I’ve tried my hand at just about every craft in my time, cake decorating, knitting, card making, cross stitch – you name it, I’ve had a go at it! However it was only about 6 years ago that I realised mixed media was my thing. When I look back the clues were there. I did O-level art (that dates me!) when I was only 14 and my final piece included collage, paints, fabrics etc so without realising it I was doing mixed-media even then.” Wendy is influenced by everyday objects. Much of her work involves upcycled and recycled items. “My husband says I never see things for what they are but rather for what they could be. I’ll see an old shoe and think ‘Ooh that would make a lovely plant pot, or I’ll find a broken keyring and it ends up on a canvas” she says. At Easter 2018 ‘The Creative Chicken’ was hatched when Wendy moved her studio in Kirkharle Courtyard. Four years later she returned to her home town of Bedlington in south east Northumberland to set up her studio and shop. At The Creative Chicken, Wendy creates and sells her unique artwork and runs a wide variety of craft classes including, of course, Powertex workshops. “It’s the perfect place to come and relax whilst letting your creativity flow” she says. “Our studio is somewhere you can really get away from everyday life and ‘play’. Our workshops are always informal and fun, you are never quite sure what you are going to end up doing!”
