!After working as artist in residence, lecturer and technician Wendy Kershaw is now a full time ceramicist. Based in an old farmhouse, in a glen near Lochwinnoch, Scotland.
!Wendy creates narrative illustrations on porcelain, usually in the form of framed panels, but also porcelain books and folding screens. She intricately builds up rich layers of imagery, by etching into porcelain with needles,

then working in stains, transfers and on-glaze. Her skilful techniques and multiple firings produce unique detailed images.
!The themes that she illustrates range from the poetry of Keats and Tennyson, celebrations of the small joys of life and her own stories.
!A large influence on her work were three residencies in China, where she was invited after her work was exhibited in America. These were in the historic porcelain capital of Jingdezhen, Shanghai and as part of the UK delegation to the FuLe International Ceramic Art Museums.
!An award winning ceramicist Wendy exhibits in the UK and internationally, and has work in the permanent collections of two museums in China.

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year ! Thank you to all who have liked, commented, encouraged my work, visited my stand at one of the four Potfests I did this year, and to those that bought my illustrated panels, clocks and brooches, it’s the biggest compliment that you can get, and I appreciate it all. It’s been quite a year, with Jey and I eloping, with my Mum, to the Isle of Mull, and cutting the cake on Calgary Bay, with Jey retiring, for the first time having our own boat, and taking a five week honeymoon, sailing around the Firth of Clyde. All the very best for 2026 🥳

Finally, my final Potfest in the City photos. I have missed out so many of the 70 potters that took part, as I just didn’t have time to get them all, and didn’t take pics if someone was busy setting up, pricing or restocking, as I didn’t want to interrupt. Ideally I’d have had more close ups of the stands too, and was going to do all of the above on the Sunday morning, but then just had time to restock my own stand. I missed many interesting and innovative stands, and new potters. But hopefully I’ll have given a quick view of this new city based show. Come and see it next November ! If anyone can help me tag these please do. .co.uk

and sorry to say I don’t know who the others are, I can’t see a name on the stands, and because there was such a wonderful number of new Potfesters I don’t know the work to put a name to them .co.uk

at Potfest in the City .co.uk one of the big pluses if doing Potfest is meeting your pottery friends and making new ones, and some potters bring an extra sparkle and uniqueness to the show. David always surprises, and is wonderfully himself, both in his work and his costumes. On day one he was a fox, day two a rabbit and day three a Shakespearean stag sprite !
