Mark Campden has been a potter for over thirty years. Working in the traditional majolica technique, his pieces are first formed in earthenware clay and covered with a white tin glaze. The surface then becomes his canvas for meticulous decoration. Each detail in Mark's work is hand painted onto the piece in fluid brushstrokes, rich in imagery inspired by nature.
A subtle range of colours is achieved by mixing natural oxides. Constant observation of life and behaviour in the natural world provides Mark with a continual reminder of life's challenges and an endless wealth of imagery to infuse his work.
