More of my work out there

This year I tried to expand my presence on the market. I even spent a week in Montreal to talk to various Galleries. There are places of interest that I haven’t pursued further at the moment but it was a great adventure with positive feedback on my work as I brought some pieces along for the ride.

You can now find my work at the following locations:

• The Hintonburg Pottery Shop / Earthen Vessels Clay Studio (Ottawa, ON)
• The Ottawa School of Art Boutique (Ottawa, ON)
• La Fab Boutique (Old Chelsea, QC)
• Galerie Old Chelsea (Old Chelsea, QC)

Today I went to see the Ottawa Guild of Potters Spring Sale. I am still a member of the Guild but am not currently exhibiting with them as it is mostly functional work people look for in these show. This is the 2nd time they use the former Horticulture Building at the Lansdowne Park in Ottawa. It was a hot and humid day both inside and out but the natural light was amazing.

I was ecstatic. Here are some photos of the show.

Happy Holidays | Joyeuses fêtes

I’ve hopped on the Holiday wagon early on this year and produced some Christmas tree decorations. Here are 2 photos; the first shows the pieces bisqued (fired once) and painted with underglazes. The second the final result once glaze fired (cone 5-6). I chose not to put any clear glaze on top as it tarnishes the colors and darkens the clay even more.
Some are already for sale at the Boutique of the Ottawa School of Art.

J’ai attrapé le virus de l’esprit des fêtes un peu tôt cette année et j’ai fait quelques décorations de Noël. Voici 2 photos; la première montre les pièces biscuitées (après la première cuisson) et peintes avec des émaux. La deuxième est le résultat final après cuisson à Cone 5-6. J’ai choisi de ne pas mettre de glaçure transparente qui aurait ruiné les couleurs et rendu l’argile plus sombre encore. Certaines sont déjà en vente à la boutique de l’École d’art d’Ottawa.

Yesterday night was the Private Reception for Dimensions – a Sculpture Exhibition presented by the National Capital Network of Sculptors at the Saint Brigid’s Centre for the Arts. Early on I sold one of my pieces to fellow Ceramic Artist Sandra Marshall. I was honoured. Much to my surprise my piece “Coralline – The Sea Dragon” received the Wallack’s Prize for Best New Artist. I was thrilled. Also, I had the pleasure to discuss with many guests who were very interested in my pieces. A very nice evening indeed. The show ends this Sunday, 5 pm.

Hier soir s’est déroulée la réception privée pour l’exposition de sculptures Dimensions, présentée par le Réseau des sculpteurs de la capitale nationale au Centre des arts St. Brigid. Très vite, une de mes pièces a été achetée par ma collègue artiste céramiste Sandra Marshall. J’étais honorée. À ma grande surprise ma pièce “Coralline – The Sea Dragon” a reçu le Prix Wallack’s de la Meilleure nouvelle artiste. J’étais super contente. J’ai aussi eu le plaisir de discuter avec plusieurs invités très intéressés par mon travail. Une très belle soirée que celle d’hier. L’exposition se terminera dimanche à 17 h.
