Gorgeous ceramics by Luke Bishop

I am a very huge fan of Luke Bishop’s work. I love the blue and orange colour palette he uses, and the mix of latex and porcelain. Check his website, it is worth having a look. He will be exhibiting from the 22nd of Nov to the 17th of Jan at the New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham. I hope I’ll get a chance to go! #lukebishop #ceramics #crafts #event #exhibition #handmade #unique #vessels
