I could listen to you talk for hours. You are so very knowledgeable and you have a wonderfully soothing voice. Your work is amazing too

[@ThrashingBuddha]

The way you narrate is like listening to a dude telling a story which is slightly serious with a hint of romantic drama. Like a play from Shakespeare but more modern. Surprisingly pleasant.

[@potatopotatoeOG]

I'm waiting for his audionook😩😩 he hasn't made one but a girl can dream...

[@hellbunni7957]

His voice sounds like the narrator from "A Series of Unfortunate Events"! I love how calming his voice is! I watch his videos before going to bed to wind down 😊

[@stephaniebriggs1296]

I practice in a corner of the garage, so, it is always interesting to see real studios for inspiration. What a great use of space you have created. I love the name of the exhibition. Your work is exquisite!

[@jeanriggs5044]

Yes, Stephanie. Literally the corner of my garage as well. I'm glad I'm not alone!

[@BrokenArrowPottery]

Lovely tour! I bet the sound of rain on the roof is soothing, as well as the sun through the skylight. Thanks! I enjoyed it.

[@floriangadsby]

It is lovely! Very atmospheric although sometimes I wish there was more sidelight for photography purposes but I make do. Thanks for watching!

[@knightclan4]

I must say Florian; you have inspired me greatly. I have found the love of clay and could not have grown in knows so quickly without channels such as yours. Your ability to speak without all the um's and ah's is refreshing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience

[@marirucola]

you're so talented; moreover it's unbelievable that an artist like you are, can be such a concrete and humble person, after all!

[@boom5474]

I absolutely adored this video, thanks a lot. You don't usually see this angle from other creators like you, and I love how you give all the details without useless additions... Really awesome, thanks again.

[@steffie1692]

finally the studio tour! ive been waiting for this 😍😍

[@pahanjayasooriya2513]

Me to

[@valeriecheng4243]

Your videos are as therapeutic as pottery and thank you for being so detailed because I've learnt so much. Am really a beginner in Singapore and just learning as much as I can.

[@Cellottia]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1115">18:35</a> The scorched jars are so subtly beautiful; I've really fallen for them!

[@marktaylor865]

This was really interesting. The exhibition looked great too.

[@a.7811]

Thank you for a lovely tour, and thank you for sharing the exhibition! What incredible work done by all 3 artists!! Great job!

[@bayanalmasri7674]

I love your studio and I’m so glad you get to showcase your work!

[@d.jensen5153]

The sound of rain on a roof is so comforting, perhaps because in our area it's far too rare. We're forever verging on drought.

[@Lexouchan]

Yes ! I was excited when I saw the thumbnail in my subscription feed. What a nice space you have ! Especially for a first studio !

[@johnkirke2743]

Beautifully space my friend. Thanks for sharing your studio set-up with us.

[@rosiewaring3815]

It is my favorite to see the tools/ jigs makers have for their own practice!!!

[@stardresser1]

Just wow. First time viewing this work, and it is stunning in it's simplicity and clarity. What a treat, thank you.

[@Lenat26]

Such a lovely and calming video, love how you do some little demonstration as well!

[@user-ew9ev3dt4k]

Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your experience 💖💖 this is priceless

[@ritawoldemariam2017]

So happy I came across your page! Amazing content! 👏🏽👏🏽

Big thanks for all the info. So inspiring. I’m setting up home studio and so overwhelmed, your talk so healing and so helpful. I wished to have big studio like you one day. Thanks again

[@BrenzerM]

Incredible, thank you for taking the time to share your space and how you use it. It has given me a lot of inspiration to tweek my own to make it more comfortable and efficient. Beautiful space and works ❤️

[@josepano6453]

[@daisygoldsteincross]

Fave video so far! Always inspires me to get back to the wheel when I'm having an unmotivated day!

[@SuperJimshorts]

Incredibly inspiring. I am just getting started, and maybe taking the leap too early, and it is so cool to see your story

[@Szegro]

Been waiting for this! So excited!

[@freddiemoretti8456]

Neat tour and exhibition, thanks for sharing!

[@famuyidekolawole5020]

Thank you soo much for a more detailed video. Since I stumbled on your video on your experience at Japan. I would really love to be at your studio in person. The exhibition space really exposes the uniqueness of your work too. Keep inspiring ❤

[@TheCraftyPhoenix]

I need you to do all of my audiobooks. Your narratives are so calming! Your work is stunning!

[@morjulies]

I love your work and your videos! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@paulcunningham5959]

Thanks Florian, I'm updating my studio and I really like your shelving system idea and I'm going to do something very similar. Thanks for sharing

[@strokebloke]

Very skillful. Immensely impressed.

[@aliyyahwright862]

So excited for the new video!

[@barbarac4138]

Great space! You have so much room!

[@ronphilbeck]

Amazing space Florian. Loved hearing you tell all about it and walking us through. Pots are fab as always. Cheers.

[@floriangadsby]

Hey Ron! Thanks for watching, doesn’t beat yours though, I’d kill for some proper outside space.

[@pulcinellaceramics9511]

Lovely tour! great job!

[@austinnagel6603]

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

[@JACK_TheAllSeeingEye]

That........was awesomeness✨👍

[@mada658]

Fantastic.you are even a teacher.well done.i love it!!

[@Sullivan_Owen]

I would love to see what you do with porcelain, it's a material I love and have spent months developing my own slip body that I use in my casting. I designed the body to cast well but with enough elasticity that I can pull and manipulate it right out of the mold. I see the repetition of a slip cast piece as only the starting point for what you can do with the ware.

[@arezouniqu4702]

Love it ...so nice 💪🏼💐

[@emilysheppardart]

lovely thanks for sharing your space :)

[@gemahevia6025]

Thanks a lot for sharing this video!!! 😍

[@rikyntiwahlang7754]

[@Dreamcatcher1010x]

[@kairon156]

Great studio tour.

[@vanesaarrieta7108]

[@rottweilerrivera4787]

Your studio is amazing

[@mosseyw]

Great informative video, thank you 😊

[@Hauwraa]

Wow this is so interesting ❣️

[@sarahnovoa7391]

You are amazing!

[@katekramer7679]

Hi Florian. I've started going down the rabbit hole of watching your videos and I'm really enjoying them. I've signed up for a wheel class. I do find your comments at the end where you mention being impressed by the other artists amusing. I've dabbled on photography but I'm always comparing myself to other photographers. I suppose that's common amongst artists, feeling like you won't ever measure up to your peers.

[@harrypotters2807]

I love the little orange plug on your digital pyrometer lol it looks like a face going whoa

[@nancyltate2943]

Excellent love you videos

[@carlwitzel4531]

So very helpful. Thanks,

[@madanceramics7401]

finally I found. Thank you so much.

[@willmorris340]

Sensei, while this is an older video to comment on I saw an area where some advice from a student might help. To help with the air compressor noise you can set up another vertical storage tank and run it in tandem with your current setup. It will give you more volume to play with while reducing the amount of times your compressor needs to operate (thus reducing the duty cycles increasing the life / service of your compressor) and while your need may be singular now you may expand into different areas where compressed air usage might increase. Ive been thinking, a large particle sprayer to add precise even coats of glaze to pieces and then applying another less precise coating might create interesting effects. Anyway, love your work and the snippets of wisdom about the idea within / behind / and spirit of the art.

[@kz9312]

I could listen to your voice all day! 💕

[@floriangadsby]

Why thank you! I’ve gone years hating the sound of my own voice so that’s really lovely to hear!

[@corinneroyy]

Your studio is so beautiful

[@DunoonVanRijn-dx1hr]

I hope you become very famous and a fore runner in your field. God bless you and your endeavours ❤

[@barryawadsworth]

Such a great video and so appreciated. I'm returning to an old love and establishing a studio for my "retirement".

[@floriangadsby]

Best of luck! And thanks for watching.

[@touisbetterthanpi]

Inspiring!

[@christianegonbarnthaler1426]

super art

[@Szegro]

I own only 1 handmade porcelain piece and its probably my favorite to hold and examine. If you make the switch, I'll be waiting for a shop update with more excitement than usual :)

[@lorithompson9166]

I think a double French door out to a subtropical garden with a view of a mountain would be the only improvements to that studio.

[@simayozturk1989]

awesome

[@aturing9430]

nice studio!

[@arezouniqu4702]

Fantastico bello ....👌🏼👏🏼💪🏼🥂🥰 braveeee💎

[@alicegrug]

You should put your reclaim bucket on a dolly. Fantastic video, I hope I have a studio even slightly as wonderful as this!

[@ally3258]

I love your videos and your work, your studio is so incredible - especially for your first ever studio. Would you do a video about your apprenticeships? As that’s something I always wanted to do after uni and it would be really interesting!

[@floriangadsby]

Thank you! I have already made a video just about that in fact, you can find it here, kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmrCdnSVj8uiabM enjoy!

[@vikkusingh3863]

[@shakedagassi7164]

Thank you for the amazing video. I have a question: can you make a video about all of the processes of filming your videos and shooting your photos? I will love to see that, I really love the aesthetics of your videos and ceramics. thank you for sharing your amazing work. 😍 ❤️

[@nottheone582]

just read your bio and was not surprised to find a fellow waldorfian! small world

[@beaniebutt47]

My family and I would love you and yours peace to you my favorite peace ful teacher man !

[@irispottery6474]

[@celestialbeas9214]

you should get a little dolly for that reclaim bucket, if you have to move it around, it makes it much easier!
