A selection of my writings on ceramics, in the form of commissioned articles and other texts. Many of the articles relating to an individual artist's work have been commissioned and therefore should not be taken as a rigorous critical analysis, which is not to say the content is inaccurate.

Most of my writing, however, is historical or general in nature, while some of the more deliberately polemical articles contain robust observations in areas such as ceramics education and the effect of certain styles and trends on the development of ceramics in the 20th and into the 21st century.

A subcategory to this section will be added at a later time, which contains teaching notes and work from my doctoral dissertation titled 'In the Beginning was the Word: Bernard Leach and the development of Australian studio pottery from 1940 to 1964'.

This website contains a selection of articles written pre 2010. As of February 2012 I have a blogspot which contains more up to date information on published articles, plus other comment, images and links of interest.
