<\/a>the hill into Monxton and then managed to cycle up the steep hill out of the village and along the old Roman road before taking the turning on the right towards Quarley. \u00a0This stretch of the ride is breathtaking at the moment. \u00a0The road is little more than a single track, either side lined with glorious swathes of cow parsley and the fields full of deep green crops.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n It is quite blissful coasting along the road under a clear blue sky, not a car in sight. \u00a0We cycle through Quarley and find the Project Workshops, a group of renovated farm buildings, on the left. \u00a0We first visited Project Workshops before it expanded to its current size when the stonemason, Henry Gray, did some work for us. \u00a0He is no longer based there, having moved to the Chalke Valley just south west of Salisbury, but the Tribe still remember his powerful work, ‘Angel and Wretch’ that he was working on at the time.<\/p>\n The current resident artists are of similar ilk; there are painters, potters, sculptors,a furniture designer, a letter cutter amongst many more. \u00a0The Tribe love the ceramic animals by Elaine Peto; the Littlest particularly loves the foxes (‘What does the fox say?’!).<\/p>\n The glassmakers, Mark Taylor and David Hill are fascinating to watch and the Tribe are enthralled as they watch the techniques, time and patience it takes to blow one exquisite glass.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n One of the most impressive exhibits is the life size War Horse and Trooper that Amy Goodman is still working on – it isn’t only the Tribe whose eye is caught by this particular piece. \u00a0It will eventually be situated at the entrance to Romsey Memorial Park as part of the WW1 anniversary. \u00a0Beautiful and intricate metalwork and jewellry by Marek Woznica includes stunning designs around themes of magic and alchemy which rather appeals to all the Tribe; \u00a0a Welsh dragon rather catches my eye. \u00a0Before taking a break, I manage to pop in to see Marc Johnson’s jewellry; I will definately have to return with FotT alone – his work is beautiful – contemporary and simple.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>
