For as long as I can remember I’ve loved the trees in ‘The Willow Pattern’.
‘Five Found Pieces’ has all the pottery taped and BluTacked together inside so that I can draw those lines.
And the rusty patch by the willow.
I think this might be a sugar bowl?
A really nice little design on the inside too.
If anyone’s familiar with this version of the design and could suggest the manufacturer I’d love to know.

The interest in pottery pieces found in the garden continues.
🔹🩵🔹
I have just three pieces of this cup but each one is a real thrill to find.
Finding (while gardening), cleaning, storing in the enamel jug then sorting into shades of blue is the usual routine. Sometimes in these groups I notice the pieces with the same design and occasionally they fit together.
Drawing the single pieces or partly assembled pieces of crockery feels like the final step. I guess it’s about the heritage, the unearthing, appreciating, (I’ve stared at tiny pieces of pottery more closely than I’ve ever looked at a cup) and recording them, which, as well as a real and interesting drawing challenge seems appropriate.
I normally tape the pieces in place but on the inside so that the sticky bits and blu tack can’t be seen and I can draw the entire length of the delicate break-lines where they join.
Here I thought I’d tape them and draw the tape, which occurs to me is rather like a sticking plaster on an injury.
I’ve been trying to find out the design or manufacturer. Does anyone know?

My drawing ‘River Severn Trees’ is off to its new home.
I loved making this piece of work, but to convey what I wanted to of the river Severn beneath the bank of trees was a challenge. A great deal of propping it up, standing back, assessing shapes, tonal values as well as a lot of really detailed work, working out how to draw twigs by leaving them as negative spaces. But if you’ve seen my work you know I love the detail.
Exhibition closes today. I never did manage to see that red dot.

Snowdrops emerging from a bed of moss in my favourite little pot of the old ones I have. It’s not symmetrical, has a unique handmade shape and a beautifully pitted and textured surface. Just lovely.

A familiar scene.
I made another drawing of the river Severn at Ironbridge but later in the year as the leaves began to turn.
Interesting to see those trees whose shapes I had become familiar with and trace the beginnings of autumn colour meandering through them, the river much fuller, moving up that fallen tree lying on the far bank.

The 8th John Ruskin Prize Exhibition
“The theme
Patience in Looking,Truth in Making
invites a deep exploration into the relationship between the acts of perception and creation and the journey from what we see to what we make. The selected works reveal how our careful observations of the world can be captured in the art we make and the objects we create.”
My drawing ‘River Severn Trees’ along with some of the beautiful and diverse pieces of work.
In alphabetical order (with one technical hitch) these pieces of work are just a fraction of this impressive exhibition.
