I'm jealous of your fox plate. He's very intent and I wonder what he's doing and where he's going on a night like this.

They are very more-ish. The first lurcher plate was a gift; happy to get another for my own collection. Also bought a white lurcher plate at Hatfield but that was also a gift so I don’t yet have a photo.

Via Hatfield Art In Clay. Possibly Ben’s last show; he’s had to cancel a couple this year. But he’ll still be making for as long as his health allows him to.

So if you are investing for the future do you buy

what you like
what is typical and he sells the most
what is not typical
the biggest most expensive one offs
multiple smaller

Buy what you like. Odds are, if you like it then someone in the future will also like it and be willing to buy it off you. But these are retail prices; there are very, very few potters who’s work you’ll be able to sell for a profit 30-40 years from now

oHHooH so excited  Jumping For Joy  Jumping For Joy  Jumping For Joy - spurred on by Naomi's Potfest pics I remembered I was going to buy a bit of Ben's wonderful work - almost top of my list.

I love quirky / funny things that grab the attention. So ordered these from him today and they are in the post already - THANKS BEN  Most Excellent

I'm sure he wont mind me posting these webside photos and linking to his website

They just crack me up and like some other potters - stick one on your mantle piece and the first thing any guest says when they are in your living room is

"What the f%%% is that"

"It's Art" I say "don't touch it - it's expensive"

Followed by discussion on how much art costs and how people would pay that for a painting and just think of this as a 3d painting....etc...etc...

I digresss...  Embarrassed

I have taken the "Cumbria" from the title of this thread, as I believe that he moved from there to Leicestershire. Is that correct, Crawford?
