New Gabrielle Kauffman

We have recently restocked our shelves with mugs and bowls by Etobicoke potter, Gabrielle Kauffman. Gabrielle is making mugs to fit everyone's needs. In the foreground you can see two of her short mugs, designed to fit under new coffee machines. She is also making two sizes of large mugs, large and extra large. We also have a nice selection of bowls in all sizes.

Leslie Watts Landscapes

We have two new landscapes by Leslie Watts. Evening at Kelmscott, top,  and Near Buscott. Both are acrylic on canvas and are paintings of the English countryside that Leslie loves to visit when she is not in her studio in Stratford. All of Leslie's paintings, available at the store, can be seen on her website.

Victoria Lewis

The two works shown here, by Stratford artist Victoria Lewis, are done on large panels with oil sticks. Each landscape is "constucted from pieces of other landscapes and views in the outside world." The oil stick, oil paint in a solid form resembling a crayon, allows Victoria to apply the oil in a robust burst of colour and shape. Each work exerts the energy of the Canadian landscape Victoria admires.
Top to bottom: Drift  48" x 48"; Island  48" x 48". For more information on Victoria's work please contact the store.
