Tim Andrews,former pupil and long time friend of David Leach. Did his early potting in the Leach Tradition.but found his forte in Raku. His burnished Raku Pots are a wonder to behold.and are amongst the finest being made in Britain today. Author of a standard book on Raku,well worth reading. He also runs a wide ranging exhibition each Autumn,with many potters of note. 
          Present day examples and information on his website here.

TA stamp

I have some examples on Pinterest, but it would be better if people post pics from their own pots.

Sadly, I think that your comments Naomi will fall on deaf ears or perhaps closed eyes is more appropriate. It is such a shame, as a picture of the mark would be very useful here. Not being a "big fan" of raku means that I can't oblige.

You in favour of the 'How to Lose friends and Antagonise people' style of posting then Studio?

Small jar, similar glazing perhaps to David Frith - celadon with brown & blue
Impressed mark looks like TA, possibly IA
Couldn’t see it in book. Maybe I’m missing it.

Tim Andrews, Woodbury near Exeter. Better known for his Raku work, he was apprenticed to David Leach, and then worked with him for some years.

Thank you. I’ve seen his Raku online and it looks wonderful.
I looked in the initials section at the back of the book and he’s not there. Thanks again!

Indeed, his raku work fetches good prices. Not to much for his Leach style pieces tho.

You are absolutely brilliant Naomi. Thanks so much. Comparing it carefully with some of the Raku Tim Andrews I have. I think you are spot on. I just did not associate it with Tim Andrews David Leach style. I thought it looked a lot more like a David Frith pupil style.

His early work, I think. Yes, very Leach/Frith in style

Tim was an apprentice with David in 1978/9 and this was followed by a further period of training at Dartington, so this pot clearly fits the style of both establishments at the time he was there.

I seem to remember Tim telling me that it wasn't until returning to Lowerdown to share David's pottery space in 1986 that he began to experiment and develop the raku work for which he is best known. He remained there for 7 years and his thinking was that if he was making work similar to David then visitors to the pottery would buy David's and not his. Logic that you can't argue with.
