Potfest 2026 - 2

Potfest 2026 - 2,  at Compton Verney.

As I said in my previous post, I have posted only a small fraction of what was on display. A lot of new ceramicists this time, but also, a lot of my favourites were not present. Overall, not as good as other years.

I've not come across her work before, I really liked her tiles.

Potfest 2026

Potfest 2026 at Compton Verney.

I don't know why but I don't go to as many pottery exhibitions as I used to, so when Potfest comes round, it's a real pleasure.  I did not think this year's exhibition was as good as usual, and some of my favourite artists were not there. Many new ones, though. As always, I have posted only a small fraction of what was on display.
