www.modpotsceramics.com

That's right - I'm taking wee breaks from the studio and working on a Mod Pots website. It's still in construction but it's coming along. Eventually (assuming I can figure out how to do it) you'll be able to purchase directly from the website.

Dinnerware for Culina

Earlier this year I was commissioned by the lovely folks at Culina (my favourite local restaurant) to create some custom dinnerware for them. All 48 bowls are now at their new home, awaiting their chance to be paired with delectable treats from the Culina kitchen. You'll find Culina at 9914-89 avenue, in Edmonton.

Royal Bison spring edition

The fine folks at the Royal Bison have kindly invited me back to participate in the spring edition of their sale - to be held on May 5 and 6. I'm very excited, and a little nervous because there's not much time to prepare!

I've been working on some new stuff... with a bit of a focus on spring and the coming warm summer months. I've got some plant pots in the works, as well as some sangria sets and even some bird feeders! I'll be updating my blog with photos as the pots are completed... so check back often!

Artists in Action!

I've been invited to participate in the new "Artists in Action" event at the Muttart Conservatory on March 18. I'll be in the company of a group of talented artists demonstrating their crafts and talking with visitors. I'm planning to make a few hand-built pieces and I'll have some samples of my work on hand. It should be an exciting day!

For more info click here (you will be directed to the Muttart Conservatory website).

Thank you Royal Bison!!

I had a fabulous weekend at the Royal Bison - thank you to everyone who came out! It was lovely, and flattering and humbling to have people respond positively to my work, and I'm happy to say that the majority of my pots now have new homes!

A big thanks to the organizers of the Royal Bison, Jeanie, Josh and Vicki, for putting on such a great show and for supporting local artists. You guys are tops!

Royal Bison starts tomorrow!

I'll be spending today doing final preparations for the sale tomorrow... scouring the house in search of boxes to pack all those pots! Oh, and I'm super excited to hear that the weather is supposed to be gorgeous... it'll make for a great weekend!

I've been calling these little cups rum cups - because they're the perfect size for a cocktail. They would be great for rum and eggnog... if you want to get into the spirit of things. I also drink wine out of them... and in the summer if you chill them they'll keep your cocktail nice and cool.

Starburst! bowls for the Royal Bison

It's time to get your groove on! I've made Starburst! bowls in three different colour combos for the Royal Bison sale. These bowls are sized to be serving bowls... or, super big cereal bowls for those of you who can't get enough Cheerios in the morning!
