We want to thank everyone who came visiting our studios this past weekend. We all were excited to see so many people out and about. It is always a pleasure for us to share our studios, our work and share our stories with you.

New work from Martha Millard
Check out the amazing new work from Martha. We love all the fresh new colours.
My pottery is constantly changing and evolving, most is functional although some pieces are purely whimsical. My functional forms are simple with subtle alterations, a little texturing and glazes that blend together seamlessly, pleasing both to the eye and the hand. It is designed to be used and enjoyed daily. Because each piece is made by hand, no two are identical. This is due to the nature of the clay, the glaze and me leaving signs of the creative process like throwing lines and marks from tools or my fingers.
There is something special about things made of clay. Each piece unique and imperfect, very much like our selves.
As someone arranges flowers in a vase, arranges food on a platter or wraps their hands around a warm coffee mug, I like to think that I have touched them in some way.

Donna Berry
“I have a fascination with realistic works and this is reflected in the subjects I choose to paint. I am drawn to scenes with a strong light and shadow system. And even more importantly for me is capturing a mood and I achieve this by my choice of hues and tonal values selected from the color wheel.
Helen Shideler
“For me painting is a celebration of life and how light and color interact. The real joy is in the challenge and complexity and getting it right. I constantly strive to hold myself to the highest standards. “
