artist's story

Tim Lake

Born September 1974, Tim lives and works in Carmarthenshire, Wales. “Fluidity, fullness and lift are attributes I look to impart into my pots, always trying to bring the softness and suppleness of the material through to the end of the processes. This combined with the alchemic adventure of taking a base material and transforming it into objects of use and beauty is the satisfying goal.” A variety of different voices inform Tim’s work, from East to West, Korea to Marshall, Karatsu to MacKenzie. “I make a variety of forms, ranging from vases and lidded containers to drinking cups and pouring bowls. All work is stoneware and most of it is thrown and turned on a slow turning kick wheel but I also produce various slab built plates and trays. All the work is fired to between 1280°C–1300°C in a gas and wood kiln.”

The Own Art Loan Scheme

The Own Art Scheme is an interest-free loan scheme set up by the Arts Council that is designed to make it affordable for everyone to buy original, high quality contemporary art and craft by letting you spread the cost of your purchase over 10 months.

You can choose any work with a retail price between £250 and £25,000 from our great selection of prints, paintings, ceramics, sculpture, glass and wood. It is not possible to buy gift vouchers with the Own Art Scheme.

You can borrow from as little as £250 up to a maximum of £25,000 . We then spread the cost of your purchase over 10 months with an interest free loan. For instance, if you buy a painting from us that costs £300 through the own art scheme, you would pay £30 in 10 monthly installments.
