New Studio!

This is my last week at the Harbourfront Centre and I'm busy firing my final kilns. I will be moving my studio to the West End of Toronto (@Symington and Dupont) to the Bradshaw Studios. I'm very excited about the new space! I will start teaching classes on Tuesday, September 28th. Please contact me if you're interested!

I will be participating in the Queen West Art Crawl which happens Sept.18th & 19th between

11 AM - 6 PM at Trinity Bellwoods Park in Toronto. I will be at booth E 50 which is in the purple section right off Queen West across from the performance area. Please come and visit! I'm working hard making lots of new things!

Distill Show

If you feel like a nice day in the Distillery District, make sure to drop by the Distill Gallery (55 Mill St. Toronto) to check out my work that's part of an invitational exhibition.
Other artists included are:
Annie Tung, Shuyu Lu, Melanie Siegel, Sarah Jane Reynold, Dawn Petticrew, Lana Filippone and Lee Horus Clark.

Thanks to everyone for coming out to the show this weekend. It was lots of fun, I met so many great people and saw some fantastic art! Now I'm going to sleep for a week...

Hi Folks! I just finished taking some photo's of my new work, here's a glance at what I've been up to.

I haven't posted anything in a while because I've been so busy making new work. Here is a couple of photos of work ready to pop in the kiln. I screen printed some drawings I did in the Junction onto some cups and bowls. If you would like to see the finish product, please visit me at the Toronto Outdoor Show which is on July 9th, 10th and 11th. My booth # is 515 and I'm in the Turquoise section near city hall. Hope to see you there!

Recent work

Here a couple of new designs I've been working with.

Stacked City Bowls

I was fiddlin' around with making these bowls just before Christmas struck. I haven't completely resolved them yet. I definately want to work out the shape a little better. I don't really make a lot of bowls and I don't usually do too much drawing on my ceramics. So, it was fun to try something different. In case you can't make them out - I scratched on some little city scapes.

Harbourfront Opening

Hey there, come check out the new work at the Harbourfont Centre! The opening is Friday, January 22nd at 6PM. It will be a great show!

Glass

I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I would share a couple of photos of the glass I made a couple of weeks ago. Lucky me, I got to participate in my friend Benjamin Kickert's glass blowing class! Check out his website: http://www.benjaminkikkert.com/ or come to the Harbourfront RIGHT NOW to see his work in real life! His glass is currently on display in the east side vitrines until mid January.

The class was super awesome fun and I highly reccomend it to anyone who hasn't done it before to give it a shot. My lovely partner Katrina also took a couple of short video's of me in action, which I added below. Unfortunately it's during the dull moments because I required her assistance in the exciting parts. I hope I get to do it again some day!

Glass Blowing!

Distill

I now have new work in Distill Gallery, located at 55 Mill St. in the Distillery District of Toronto. Great area to spend and afternoon, if you've never been! Check it out: http://www.distillgallery.com/

Oh, and just a side note to any of you who are going to ask me for work in December...Please request what you would like for X-mas presents now! I may or may not have what you want available then, but I can work on it now if you ask. Nicely.
