David Lawrence Fry is a British artist working in painting, ceramics, photography, print.

Based in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, UK.
He has worked in the Arts for over 60 years, exhibited widely in the UK and abroad, and featured in several specialist publications, and won many awards.

His unique ceramic work of colourful glazed pieces inspired by my love of  Oriental ceramics and Japanese Prints and the Fauvist artists.

To achieve the ‘colour within colour’ effect I formulate the classical oriental glazing techniques: Flambe, Jun, Wood Ash, Iron Blues etc. These processes produce exquisite and unique pieces that exhibit a love for colour, beauty and depth, that can also be found in my paintings.

For further information on glazes, please click here: Oriental Mystery page and the Glazes page.

 Update. My studio has now moved to North Tyneside, 4 miles away from the Newcastle Arts Centre  where I was based for 35 years. And im now spending more time working on my painting and other art work. There is a mailing list for people interested in my new studio and new work. Please email me if you wish to be included on the list, for visits and studio exhibitions.
