Pottery by Lucy

In the fall of 2018 Lucy took a beginners class in clay with the intention of figuring out how to make birch bark pottery, using her wood carving skills to create natural, realistic shapes and textures in her nature-inspired works. Since then, she’s thrown herself into learning the art form and has built a home pottery studio/lab where she creates day and many a night!  Lucy also has fun playing with colour, and taking on the challenge of commissioned works.

Home is beside the lake and in the forest of Val des Monts, Quebec. The natural landscape inspires many of her clay creations that are hand built or made on the wheel. Her striking birch bark series is the clearest example of this.

 

Lucy lives to create, and she creates to live; her hands are never idle.
