Using the red earthenware clay native to Nova Scotia, Joan creates “wheel-thrown and constructed” pottery decorated with slip and rich, colourful foodsafe glazes.  Her pots combine luscious surfaces with distinct shapes inspired by her environment and love for forming pliable clay. A feast for the eyes and a delight to use.  Joan’s tableware is both
functional and decorative.

The artist will also be conducting a two-day workshop on Saturday and Sunday where she will demonstrate a variety of wheel thrown and hand built pottery forms as well as slip and glaze application using resist techniques.

Anyone interested in attending the workshop can contact Crystal Sohlman at 935-1973.
