My husband, Roger Owen, who has died of cancer aged 66, was a talented artist and potter who spent much of his life teaching and inspiring others.
After his retirement from City of Bristol College in 2015, he was able to concentrate on making things again. He combined his talents of craftsmanship and mark making to create huge platters, beautifully decorated with large brushwork designs. These he sold in the Potters, an artist-led co-operative in Bristol, and in many galleries throughout the south-west of England.
