Steeped in Teapots
a site to see friday: Print Pattern Project
Last night I attended the opening of Cathy Terepocki’s exhibition Thank-you! Come again. at Luna & Hill here in Saskatoon. As always seeing Cathy’s work was inspiring. She has such a defined and unique style and aesthetic that I love. And she is truly the hardest working artist I know. Three kids and still time to be an art star!
Well it reminded me that another amazing Canadian ceramic artist had emailed a while back with a great link to a blog post someone wrote about one of Cathy’s workshops. So I thought I’d share as today’s site to see.
Enjoy!

Also check out more about Cathy here.
Oh and make sure to also check out Marney McDiarmid’s work (she’s the one that sent me the link). Her work is also beyond fabulous!
I can hardly wait to get my copy of this!
“The
human figure has been represented in clay throughout history and
continues to evolve today. Artists are working with the figure in new
ways, playing with materials and forms, and making use of new
technologies to produce challenging and unconventional work, from the
intact whole figure to the fragmented, hybrid and abstract. Divided by
broad themes, each chapter features a variety of different expressive
works from a range of international ceramic artists. This book explores
the role of figurative ceramics through history and in contemporary
contexts, and also reveals the methods of six key contemporary artists,
using how-to images to illustrate their techniques. “
