Oilspot glazes, so called for their speckled appearance, are extremely sensitive to kiln atmosphere. Total oxidation for a long time at high temperature is essential. But when a localised pocket of reduction occurs, the effects can be wonderful.

My first one-man show in Dublin since I moved to Mayo in 2006. See the invite for details.
NAG gallery curator, Mark St.John Ellis invited me to make an exhibition of pots on the theme of “Mu”, a Buddhist term roughly meaning ’emptiness.” So my subtitle is the “Emptiness of Bowls”. Everything reduced to its simplest form, bowls as simple abstract shapes, clean lines, minimal decoration.
