A beautiful tribute to Wayne Ngan, an amazing artist and contributor to the world of understanding the potters relationship with clay. Sincere condolences to his family from Delta Potters. May you be comforted by the joy of your relationship with Wayne and may he Rest In Peace.

After much contemplation, and dithering back and forth, I've had to come to the decision to let go of this beloved quarter section in Alberta. I've been talking... to a realtor or two, but do wish this wonderful property could somehow continue to be used by artists and potters. It needs someone who can be there to share in its upkeep and fire the kiln. There have been initial talks with my friends who were out there recently, but no real decisions yet. If anyone is interested in learning more, contact me and I'll do my best to answer or put you in touch with someone who can help. See more

Im mixing clay and thinking about throwing tomorrow when, all of a sudden I felt so sad. I found myself thinking, who am I creating for, I miss my gallery visi...tors. Then I looked at this piece I am working on for a friend and came back to myself. Be gentle with yourselves and others, this is an incredibly hard time we are in See more

The Salt Spring Island Ceramic Awards 2020 (SSICA) ceramic art prize promotes artistic and technical excellence in the practice of ceramic artists living and wo...rking in the Province of British Columbia. Human-made ceramic objects date back to at least 24,000 BC. We often take for granted the major role this endeavor has played in the progress of humankind. This year's theme "Out of this World" is a call for artworks that celebrate this sublime and ever evolving expression of the human imagination. The entry period is January 3, 2020 till May 31, 2020. Finalists and Award-winning artwork will be exhibited at Mahon Hall in Ganges, Salt Spring Island, Oct 8 to 18, 2020, with the Awards Gala & Prize winners announced on Oct 17, 2020. SSICA 2020 represents a total commitment of $10,000 including a top prize of $5,000 for the winner. Four additional prizes include $3,000 for second prize, $1,000 for third prize, $500 for peoples choice and $500 for the SSI prize. See more
