During a walk about the Surrey Artist Open Studios trail this weekend, I stopped by the studio of Libby Daniels (@libby_daniels_ceramics) to view her latest collection of handmade ceramics.
I took the opportunity to ask Libby about her process, particularly how she develops shapes and explores colour in her work. It was also interesting to discuss whether she creates with a specific audience in mind, or whether her focus is primarily on personal exploration and enjoyment in making ceramics.
Libbyās work can next be seen at the Sussex Craft Week event in Arundel, 20ā28 June 2026.

Top tipā¦ When shipping artwork internationally in a wooden crate, correct packaging marks really matter. Missing or incorrect markings can lead to customs delays, returns, or even (gulp) destruction of the artwork.
Top tip: Avoid using red or orange stamps unless required for hazardous goods, as they may trigger unnecessary customs inspections.
Our crate markings indicate ISPM 15 compliance, fragile contents, keep dry instructions, correct orientation, dimensions, and gross weight helping ensure safe and compliant transit worldwide.

A giant of British art, a legacy of colour, light and imagination!
Rest in peace, David Hockney šØ
Get @reshare_app ā¢ @bbcradio2 Influential British artist David Hockney has sadly died at age 88. Weāre sending love to Davidās family and friends at this difficult time. ā¤ļø
Saw this and instantly felt lifted. Thereās something wonderful about both the artist and her art. At 90, sheās still bringing beauty to her community, and thatās given me the push I needed to get on with my day.
Iām officially inviting her to Heathrow. š

Original post:
@factexplainers AnezĢka KasĢpaĢrkovaĢ, a 90-year-old former agricultural worker from Louka, Czech Republic, transformed her tiny village into a stunning open-air art gallery. Using nothing but a small brush and vibrant blue paint, she hand-painted intricate, traditional Moravian floral patterns onto the walls, doors, and windows of local homes.
KasĢpaĢrkovaĢ, often affectionately known as āAgnes,ā took up the hobby in retirement after learning from another local woman who did similar volunteer work. When her mentor passed away, AnezĢka took over to keep the tradition alive.
