Hello lovely people, my Gallery at #wenfordbridgepottery will be closed for September because of building work to replace the house roof. You are welcome to visit by appointment or give me a call to discuss work. #ceramics #ceramicsculpture #scaffolding
Red riding hood in her new home, such a lovely garden. Looking forward to seeing her planted up. #ceramics #ceramicsculpture #headplanter #redridinghood #earthstoneoriginal
I haven’t posted for a while, I have been working on commissions and so don’t like to post photos as they are often presents. But Saturday the sun shone so Bernard and I had a relaxing half hour soaking it up. #ceramics #ceramicsculpture #cats #sunshine #relaxing
This dragon looks more female she obviously wanted to emerge with a “ta da” #ceramicsculpture #craftcrank #dragons #joy
Spending a few days catching up with family in beautiful Derbyshire. A companion stone behind Baslow Edge. #derbyshire #family #landscapes #companionstones
Working on commissions, but possibly some exciting exhibitions coming up so planning a big piece. More details when things are more definite! #ceramics #ceramicsculpture #clay #hares #stmelangell #patronsaintofhares
Exhibitions! Do you remember them, I mean in person walking round looking at actual art and maybe having tea and cake? Well this is my first for a long time. It is always fun in a beautiful location what’s not to like?

House sign has gone up, only taken me five years to do this for my neighbour, just two more to do, one for my house and one for The Letterbox but don’t hold your breath! Lots of other things on the list including commissions and a dragon water feature, designed in my head but yet to be made. #housenames #wenfordbridge #wenfordbridgepottery #rivers #rivercamel #clay #crankclay #roses
Close encounter with a dragon! Just about to unpack and glaze #ceramics #ceramicsculpture #dragons #headplanters #clay
Ok so the procrastination has to stop now as half a ton of clay has arrived think I need to move it!

Procrastination takes all different forms, one of mine (and I am an expert!) is gardening, especially when the sunshine’s after some grey days. But this morning I found an unusual weed in my daisy patch maybe a bernardaflora will it spread?

Sorry can’t do anything today as I am working as the cat bed! This has nothing to do with Bernard loving me he just hates the mock fur blanket and sinuses my legs instead😂 #cats #devotion #avoidingwork #midsummer
Slightly larger dragon, this one will be just over 40cm high and will have some glaze #dragons #crankclay #ceramicsculpture #gardens
A friend sent me this photo t(hank you catherine) of the @tinyartandcraftgallery window in @henleyonthames it is tiny but has the most beautiful paintings and artwork really worth a visit #ceramics #ceramicsculpture #clay #headplanters #porcelainbirds
Taking photos of swift’s is like taking photos of dolphins, you can see them but the camera can’t!! But I am so happy we have swift’s this year, if you can have a favourite bird this is mine, especially when they fly screaming in groups. They make me think of spitfire pilots! #swifts #badphotos #joy #blueskys #ceramics #ceramicsculpture
I am at Roskilly’s stewarding at the#bowjigallery with #sallytullyceramics. Lovely place despite the mizzle, come and visit and enjoy the wonderful crafts on display and the ice cream. #ceramics #roskillysofficial #roskillysicecream #crafts
Landscape in all its natural glory and especially the magic of Cornwall is my constant inspiration.
My work is also inspired by stories, poetry, myths and legends from around the world. Additional influences include the faces of Modigliani, heads of Egyptian tombs, and Buddhist headdresses.
The sculptural heads and planters are designed to work in the natural environment to enhance any path, patio or garden space.
My work is exhibited at my studio, various galleries and art fairs around the UK. You are welcome to pop in at any time or look at my website and Facebook page to see my up and coming pieces.
I do commissions and bespoke personalised works of art for special occasions such as wedding gifts, birthdays or anniversaries.
My studio, The Potter’s Barn at Wenford Bridge Pottery near St Breward is open to visitors. Please phone or email before coming so we can be in to welcome you. There is also the wonderful Snail’s Pace Café opposite the pottery so you can have coffee, cakes or lunch and even hire a bike to cycle along the Camel trail. There is ample parking the Pottery.
