New Website

We have a new website. This site should redirect automatically, but if it doesn't, you can find us at Madpursuitpottery.com

Local Brew

We've been busy lately making a series of mugs and cups for Sarnia's local brewery, Refined Fool Brewing Company.

The large mugs in the picture below hold about 750ml, which is a whole bomber bottle from the brewery - or a whole bottle of wine, if that is more your taste.

These are only for sale through their retail shop, at 137 Davis st, Sarnia.

Cheers.

Fall is Coming

To the right you will find an updated list of our Fall shows.

I now have work available at the London Potters' Guild Store, in London, Ontario, and at Bonnie Doone Glass, in Forest, Ontario.

Also in the works is a new website - more to come as that develops.

Cheers,
Brendan

Artwalk

Come see us at Artwalk this weekend in downtown Sarnia, 10-5 today and tomorrow. 

Whoops

Well, not everything survives the bisque kiln. 

In this case, two large chip-and-dips were apparently still too wet. Or, the top one was, and it burst into its neighbour below, as they were nestled rim to rim. Casualties of the pre-Artwalk rush. 

Now I'm just feeling green. 

On a more cheerful note, our new cards designed by our talented friend Danielle have arrived. 

Slick. At least my marketing materials won't make me look so wet-behind-the-ears.

The Internet Demands Cats

It's always a good sign when other potters are willing to buy your work, so I was tickled pink (or perhaps, pleased, glad, chuffed, elated) when a local potter named Lori bought one of my large bowls at the recent Empty Bowls event.

And, it seems she owns cats of fine taste - it has become the bed of choice.

 And, of course, the internet demands cats: we must heed the call. In addition, the internet now knows she has a substantial collection of spices and a handsome spice rack: the internet never forgets, so the cat is out of the bag (see what I did there? You lucky readers you).

She also picked up one of my favorite teapots at the recent Guild Sale:

Please don't try to fit your cats in that one, however.
Hope you enjoy it, Lori, and thanks for the support.

Art Walk 2013

Great day today! The weather held out and downtown was filled with people.
Here's our booth before all the action started.
