Jon Bull's work has evolved over the years, but one thing that has remained consistent is his strong relationship with the wheel. It has always been at the centre of his creativity and serves as the spring from which his process flows; a process he describes as "form, surface, colour".
A few years after graduating at the University of Wales Institute, Jon made the transition from production thrower to studio potter, when he set up his first workshop and began developing his own work. Gradually he moved away from making functional pottery, finding himself drawn to the more expressive creation of ceramic art.
For two decades now, Jon has been exhibiting at galleries and ceramic fairs all over the UK and beyond. His fascination with abstracting celestial-scapes, shorelines, the ocean and the earth, inspires beguiling forms with highly textured surfaces. Jon creates his signature, highly tactile stoneware-fired clay forms by using volcanic and barium glazes.
Jon Bull 's ceramic studio is based near Cardiff, Wales.
