90 days to go
90 days to go in studio nine.
it is a huge studio, will I be able to fill it up ? I am the only new comer this week and the spaces and huge works of some other residents are truly intimidating
the only furniture apart a table is this electric mill, which I dont know how to use as all the other enormous machines
good to know that also my friend Ineke Heerkens was taken over by the sizes but decided to stick to small and intimate. If you want to know more about Ineke’s work at EKWC click here
And then many years ago it was also Ruudt Peters’ studio, so at the end I am confident that I will be able to handle it all.
and surely the wonderful weather I brought (maybe) from Italy helps.
working schedules are strict and the titanic bell rings for presentations, studio visits and … meals.
first trials with porcelaine, its so soft but takes the textile patterns wonderfully
and creatures will soon populate the studio.

Hello Doris, this is masumi from Ruudt’s workshop. I was so lucky to find your website yesterday, and see your experience for your residency!! Please say hello to Ineke.
Hi Masumi, How nice to hear from you. Where are you now and what are you doing?
I will see Ineke on Sunday and will certainly give her her your greetings
Doris, che bello!!! Ti seguirò per tutto il percorso! Eh, tu lo sai che da qualche parte nel web c’è una tua fan.
Grazie Alessandra, cercerò di scrivere il più possibile.
Hi Doris, I am in Texas, still. I have a son(3), and struggling to make work, too. It was very nice to see the development of your career on your site.
