I make porcelain pots, thrown on the wheel, then glazed in rough glazes or with writing on. I stack them, group them, sometimes arrange them in boxes, sometimes in tombs – see my website for many more pictures.
I sell in galleries around the UK, there’s a list here.
You can email me if you want to buy direct from me – I’ll send some images of work available.
I also make site specific installations, like this one at West Norwood Cemetery, part of The Curious Trail. I like using material culture to get people interested in history and archaeology. I teach pottery at Parade Mews Pottery in Tulse Hill, and run glaze workshops around the country.
Before this, I was an engineer and then a knowledge and change consultant. So I can’t help but want to think about why and how making works. And why it’s important too.
I live in Chiswick, my studio is in Tulse Hill near Brixton, all in London. I am originally from Conwy, North Wales and hope still to one day go back.

Louise showed me your work at Christmas – no words good enough!
I remember you from Argyll, all those years ago.

Hi Bob, how nice to hear from you! Am I right, you took us over to Islay? I loved visiting Louise in Adrishaig, I remember going for a row, and a seal following us. Wonderful.

That seal’s great great grandchildren are all over the place – to say nothing of a bunch of upstart beavers (although these are very good at dodging Louise). Islay’s one of my favourite places in the universe, and I’ve been there more times than I can remember – so it’s a racing certainty that we went there.
If you like gin try the Botanist, from Bruichladdich – it might remind you of Islay.
