The 'Iced" Tea Collection.
The teapots in this collection are treated with underglaze and

| Couldn't have said it better myself: "The difference between a craftsman and an artist consists not in the material he uses or the class of goods which he produces, but in the kind of work he does." Michael Cardew, Pioneer Pottery |
It's a teapot army!
Simplicity Collection:
These teapots generally hold 16-20 ounces, and have been made to look as perfect as they did when
they were first assembled -- by adding layers of slip over a period of time. I call them my "simplicity"
collection because their lines are simple and they are unadorned giving you access to their pure form.

Appliqué -- I take my paintings and transfer them onto my pots. You'll see
lots more in the next few months! -- I've removed the pots that have sold, but
I'm working on a new series ... Can't wait to get them photographed!

Canadian Winter Collection -- Bright, white and reminiscent of our
purest driven snow.

| Sounds a little snotty, but it's true! "People who are not themselves artists tend to assume that an art must be about something, whereas artists have (literally) no time for this. They only know that art is about art; in this case, the art of pottery is about pottery." Michael Cardew, |
