Review on The Green Man Potter

Dr. Steve Cousins The Green Man Potter is
Based in ancient Brancepeth Castle in County Durham (The Land of Prince Bishops)North East England, his designs are heavily influenced by his other two careers as a landscape designer & landscape archaeologist,along with his love of woodland & folk traditions. he is particularly interested in the Medieval Period & the Green Man motif, which encapsulates his life in a single representation.
Many of his plaque designs are based upon original sculptures in historic buildings, while others are purely his own, but with the common motif of the Green Man, or are derived from historic designs with similar folkloric or floral theme.

His domestic pottery is generally very simple and all pieces are very pleasurable to look at and to use, in a Medieval or Arts & Crafts style which comes naturally from him.

It is his aim that his work should be functional as well as attractive. Even the plaques have a function other than being decorative, as they are extremely "tactile" and provide a talking point to any wall they are placed upon.

I love handcrafted items. They are unique. Long ago I did pottery myself and other creative hobbies. Handcrafted items are always a good idea for a gift.
