Clay and Lime is set up

Clay and Lime is set up! Ready to have the first visitors tomorrow from 10am. I'll need to do a bit of titivating before they arrive, but pretty happy with how the show looks. Joe has hung some fantastic new pieces and as usual they compliment my work perfectly.
If you look carefully at some of the images you'll spot a rare sight.....some porcelain. I haven't made any porcelain for years, but I've had some bags of the stuff for ages which I normally turn into slip for slipping bisque ware.....we will see how it's received by the visitors to the show.
Looking forward to seeing lots of friendly faces over the next few days.

Clay & Lime returns for 2016

I'm happy to say that Joe Morris and I are returning to The Spring Gallery at The Poly, Falmouth this month for the fifth Clay & Lime exhibition. The show will run from 19th - 25th April. We will be having a evening opening on Tuesday 19th between 7pm - 9pm, it would be great to see lots of people there.

I'm looking forward to coming back to Falmouth for the week having been in Wales now for a few months and as always looking forward to putting on the show Joe. It's always exciting to see what fantastic new pieces Joe has to show and see our work sitting together again.

Hope to see you at the show.

Happy New Year!!

2016 is going to be an exciting year. New home, new workshop and lots of shows and events booked in for the year ahead.
I have freshened up my selling site with some new pieces, some with free P&P(UK)

Shino for Christmas at The Schaller Gallery

I am very pleased to have been asked to contribute to a group show at The Schaller Gallery, St Joseph, Michigan, USA. They are putting on a 'Shino for Christmas' exhibition.
Shino is such a diverse glaze.....metallic, crawling, satin-soft, carbon-trapped, pink, orange or white. I use it over slips, both red clay and white clay and over a very iron rich clay body(almost black/purple when fired to 1300'C) Shino can be very simple in its ingredients, but always has a surprise for you when the kiln is opened.
 
I have had pots with the Schaller Gallery for a few years and love their enthusiasm for pots and pottery and I'm looking forward to the show they put together to celebrate this fantastic glaze.

Here are a selection of pots that I am sending over.
