2025 Events
Thank you to all the visitors to the Landmark Spring Art Fair which was successful. I was pleased to show some of my latest work including Pilgrim Bottles as shown below. These are a new voyage of discovery for me as I haven’t made the shape for many years and I am loving every minute so far!
My next two adventures will be having my work in the Ealing Art Group Summer Exhibition at the POSK Gallery , 238-246 King Street. Hammersmith , W6 ORF from Saturday 21st June 5pm to 8pm Private view until Friday 4th July. The gallery is open Saturday, Sundays and Friday 27th June from 10am to 8pm and Monday to Thursday from 10am to 7pm. The exhibition closes at 6pm on Friday 4th July.
I will also be exhibiting with the Richmond Society of Artists in their Summer Exhibition at the Landmark Centre Ferry Lane, Teddington. The Private View will be on Thursday 26th June from 6pm to 8pm and the exhibition continues on Friday and Saturday from 10am to 5pm and Sunday from 10am to 4pm.
Everyone is very welcome to both of these shows.


50 Years of Potting!
This year is the fiftieth anniversary of when I started making pots and I am feeling very privileged and proud of the fact that I am still loving every minute of my life as a potter. The Spring Art Fair at the Landmark Centre in Twickenham is the first major outing for me this year and I am very much looking forward to it. I will also be exhibiting with Ealing Art Group and Richmond Society of Artists at their summer shows.
I am already planning for BEAT (Borough of Ealing Art Trail) with my friend and fellow exhibitor James Williamson which will be happening in September and full details will follow.
I am hoping to spend this year focusing on refining the Moon Jars as they are a great joy to make and I feel that they are very special pots. I will also be revisiting the large handled platters as they provide good surfaces for me to continue my explorations in glazing. My recent adventure with Pilgrim Bottles has inspired me to continue my work on developing these forms. As always I will continue to produce a range of domestic ware.
As the year draws to an end, I would like to thank everyone who has supported me through the year which has marked a change of direction away from outdoor fairs to larger scale art shows and exhibitions. It was a major decision which, happily, seems to have been a good one, both in terms of my own physical health and the exhibiting and selling of my work. Next year I will be celebrating my 50th year of making pots and I love it just as much now as I did then!. However, without the support of my family, good friends and all of the people who have bought, loved or complimented my work, I would not have been able to continue on my journey in clay so a heartfelt thanks to you all and I wish all of you a happy,safe and healthy Christmas and a great 2025. There are lots of exciting events coming up for me next year and I will put the details up once they have been finalised. Thanks again for all your support and best wishes.
