About the Work
Ceramics can often be a passage between the practical and the art world. I enjoy using pottery in my everyday life. Starting the morning with a handmade object is quite a special moment. Ross’s craft showed me an insight about the perfect warehouse cup, cheap with no faults, and the individual with its mass of character. My mum used to take my brother and I to Ross’s house, we would collect bit of his broken tossed out pottery on the beach. I’ve kept a couple of similar glazed parts, handles and bits and bobs of that time.
