Partners In Pots | Robert Rivett & Debbie Too | Episode 1235 Jun 09, 2026

Show notes

Rob and Debbie Rivett are a collaboration between thrower and artist making contemporary wheel thrown porcelain slipware. Rob enjoys the challenges that throwing with porcelain present and seeks to emphasize the characteristics of the clay by creating sleek, flowing forms which become a canvas for Debbie to paint on. Debbie brings her love of walking and appreciation of often overlooked areas of grass land to life in her lively landscape paintings. Using a combination of brushwork and Sgraffito, Debbie's experiments with slip see her using it in a unique and painterly way which captures the swaying grasses of the field margins in England.
