It is thought that Kenneth Annat was born in Morningside, Edinburgh in 1923.

Much of his early life is not documented. During the Second World War, he joined the RAF, becoming the navigator on bombing missions over Germany. It seems that his wartime experiences may have resulted in Annat suffering from post-traumatic stress.

After the war, he was involved as a patient in studies by Glasgow University Psychology Department, into the workings of the troubled mind.

For the latter part of his life, Kenneth Annat lived quietly in Bemersyde in the Scottish Borders. He was a self-taught artist and when he was demobilized from the Forces after the Second World War, he became absorbed in drawing and painting., as well as ceramics.

His early pottery and ceramics were always small pieces. They seldom measure more than a few centimetres. Later, he expanded into larger items such as these shallow bowls and plates

Annat died in 1999, and his work is now being re-assessed. He is ranked amongst the best of Scotland's outsider artists.

This is a charming and early plate by Annat - it has the incised word: Bemersyde on the base. 

The decoration is all hand-created with a wax-resist technique. The white lines created by the wax form a strange bird - and this is then covered over with a dark brown glaze - and a more rust-coloured glaze is liberally applied in the background. When the wax making up the design melts - it leaves a white line. 

The diameter is 6 1/2 inches. The edge of the dish is an inch high. 

Good condition with no chips or cracks. This is a very collectable piece of vintage Outsider ceramic art by this interesting Scottish artist. My price reflects that this is unique and you won't find another like it.
