Tom Knowles Jackson
Tom’s love of his craft and the endless variations of the processes he uses require some special images…
Tom Knowles Jackson is a potter who loves to play with the endless variations that the glazing and firing process add to his beautifully made pieces. His earthy tones, derived from local clay, wood ash and iron based glazes are fired in gas or wood fired kilns to use the alchemy of the reduction process.
Tom started using us in 2018…“the gateway to sales is the internet, whether for online sales or to apply for shows or associations. For all of these good images are essential…I started working with Article Studio in 2018 to have a representative selection of my pots photographed. Today I have a six year catalogue of my pottery and many of these pots have featured in marketing material and publicity material for shows that without good images I may never have participated in.”
Tom enjoys a more 'hands-off approach to his shoots…”I prefer not to ‘instruct’ Lenny on what I want rather leaving work for a few days in advance of a shoot to enable Lenny to interpret the work and create a mood and setting for the shots. This hands-off approach has never disappointed me.”
Me neither! It’s always a joy to have Tom’s creations in front of the camera.
