Robin Welch (1936 – 2019)

Robin Welch is, was, and remains, a highly respected British potter.  At 15, in 1951, he attended Penzance School of Art and Design, where he was taught by Michael Leach, son of Bernard Leach – the founder of Leach Pottery, where Robin worked in the holidays and on the weekends. In 1956, Robin went to study at Central School of Art, where he built on his skills, and learnt to adopt a more informal and unfettered approach to making and cultivated his skills in painting and fine drawings.
