Clay Classes


Here is your opportunity for another round of classes before the Holidays.
I am offering regular Handbuilding Classes, Teapot Building and Mask Making.

In Handbuilding we pinch, slab, coil and sculpt. These classes are fun for any and all your creative ideas. This time, I am offering slightly longer sessions over a period of five weeks.

In the Teapot Course we build an entire tea set, including cups and/or creamer and sugar bowl. This a great gift idea as well. The tea sets will be ready in time for the Holidays.

In Mask Making we create a beautiful wall hanging using basic handbuilding techniques.

Sidney Fine Art Show

Feels like I haven't stopped running since my last post. I have some catching up and a bit of blogging to do after a hectic month.
This coming weekend the beautiful town of Sidney, BC is opening its doors to the Sidney Fine Art Show. I have two pieces in the show. If you are in British Columbia and anywhere near Southern Vancouver Island be sure to visit the show. Have a look for more information -
