Wood turning
by
Mike Neufeld
His contemporary designs are classic yet modern, showcasing the depth of skill and artistic grander of his museum quality burl forms and custom segmented wood.
Our pottery is so lyrical it makes mountains cry. You could say... this is something we made up.

Handmade pottery and ceramic art by not always mature
but adult Canadian artists.

Paul Rozman Handmade stoneware wheel-thrown on the potter's wheel. Highlights include: functional tableware and decorative pottery. |
|
Pottery is deceitfully simple in its makeup. In addition to
skill, informed simplicity requires sophistication, self control, and
thoughtfulness. Essentially, we are what we like and it boils down to liquid
or concentrate. |

Lori Lautermilch Decorative and functional hand build pottery. |
|
Lori has a deep connection to nature. Primarily, she looks to flowers, plants and trees, for her source of inspiration. Lines, movement, and shapes are what presently lead her discoveries. Working in clay is her single most peaceful and fulfilling activity. For more fantabulous pottery |

Graeme Allemeersch
Handmade earthenware ceramic art finished with a white base glaze called Majolica and hand-painted with washes of ceramic stains. |
 |
From year to year, the forms I create, their surface treatment, and my intent may change, but the basic need to produce useful pottery remains the same: my work is usually vessel oriented with a specific function intended. For more fantabulous pottery |
Jim Norton studied art and glassblowing at the Alberta College of Art
and Design in Calgary, and Pilchuk Glass School in Stanwood, Washington. Each
and every object he produces is one-of-a-kind, made with molten
glass at 2000° F then slowly cooled down to room temperature, then polished and
signed. His glass is exhibited and published internationally with the most
notable entry in "The Survey of Glass of the World", Kyuryudo Art Publishing Co.
of Tokyo, Japan.
Jim Norton's superior skill and artistic expression hasn't gone unnoticed by art
lovers and collectors alike. Some important collections include: Petro Canada,
Calgary; Gift from the city of Calgary to Queen Elizabeth of England; Gift from
the city of Calgary to Governor General of Canada, Ray Hnatyshyn; Charles R.
Bronfman Collection, (Claridge)

Mike Neufeld's long career encompasses all aspects of the wood working
industry. After his retirement from logging, his interest in wood was
exclusively focused on woodturning. His current work is a combination of his
passion for well-crafted objects and a life long eye for the beauty of native
burl and root configurations. Mike finds inspiration in the native trees of
British Columbia like figured Maple and Western Yew. In addition he adds exotic
wood of Central American species to create interest and contrast in his unique
works of art.
