I prefer putting my work in front of the camera but thought this would be a good time to show myself taken by the very talented photographer @sylvaindeleuphotographer for @adriansassoon Trying to look at the camera and play catch was quite a challenge! Thank you for a fun shoot Sylvain!

Refine, refine and repeat. Carving away this sunny morning. I love the clay at this leather hard stage it is like carving into a hard cheese!

My porcelain Still Life in situ at PAD London, Berkeley Square on the Adrian Sassoon stand. Thank you @adriansassoon for showing all the work so well. I feel so lucky to be in the company of some amazing art, as seen in the second image. A really stunning art fair, well worth a visit. @kate_malone_ceramics @junkomori44 @rachaelwoodman @hitomihosono @drysdalepippin @felicityaylieff .

It’s all in the details. The bases of my pots are as detailed as the sides. I like to reward the handler when they hold, touch and view my pots from all angles.
There are three stamps on this base, my year mark, my makers mark and a circle with a number inside indicating where the pot will sit within a group of pots. .

New pot out of the kiln, shame that it has a firing crack in it.
This happens from time to time and I am used to it happening, it’s always disappointing though. I think it’s due to too quick drying, poor throwing technique or just porcelain behaving badly.

Pots drying before first firing. The different tones here are due to some being more dry than the others. .

Really bad timing for Furnace Friday. I have put off having my kiln on over the last few weeks and I really had to put it on last night. Swipe to see my balmy working temperatures I am experiencing inside today, it’s not much cooler outside though. I’m having to work quickly to carve the pots before they become too dry. I really like working on this leather hard stage of the porcelain clay. .

Sanding and refining pots with a diamond pad. I really like the crispness of the texture and line at this bisque stage. Next onto the glazing of this group. .

Here are the finished black stoneware clay pieces from my previous post. The clay was very messy and too gritty for my liking but has set me on a new coloured clay path.
