Bernard Leach was born in Hong Kong on January 5th 1887. Bernard left his life as being a banker to follow his passion in drawing and painting. He was taught by Frank Brangwyn who became an inspiration to Leach. He originally painted, etched, produced wood cuts and designs for art covers until he discovered his love for ceramics. He learned throwing, brushwork decoration in the anxiety style and all types of firing methods. Bernard lived a very full and successful life and changed the way of ceramics today.
