This White Shelf is a new commission piece made to celebrate someone’s birthday. It purposefully uses vibrant, joyous colours and many, many domestic animals. Although there is a caterpillar, bee and some beavers tucked in here and there.

What a pleasure and honour to have "As I Was Going" baby carriage on the front of Ceramics Art and Perception, Issue 78. This piece was featured at an invitational exhibition in Icheon, Korea in March 2009 and subsequently purchased by Han Hyang Lim Gallery in Korea. This gallery also acquired "Prairie Dreams Ladder" and "Cry Wolf Toy Box" from the same exhibition in Icheon. See the Essays section of this website for the full text article entitled "Exuberance" by Glenn Allison in Ceramics Arts & Perception.
