The Ottawa Guild of Potters’ Populace sculpture garden at the Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa (celebrating Canada’s 150th year) has now been taken down, and the roses, fleur de lis and feathers have been on show at the Dust Evans Gallery, Shenkman Centre. A number of us made vases used to display the sculptures. Below: these are my contribution to the continuing Populace story. A light dusting of glaze gives the surface a pebbled effect.
