Janet is known for her colorful, beautifully decorated, functional pottery as well as for her whimsical fossil-inspired clay work. Her functional plates, cups, bowls, and mugs are made to be used in your home and are glazed in a variety of blue, red and purple colors. Her pottery is usable but yet lovely. All work is food safe and lead free.

Janet's newest work, inspired by her son, Jasper, incorporates fossils and mushrooms into the clay. It focuses on ceramic tidepools, marine life, and wild mushrooms, which have always been Janet's passions.

Jim is known for his “Mid Century Modern Plus” work: porcelain bowls, cups and teapots decorated with imagery reminiscent of Miro, Klee, Mondrian and Kandinsky. He also makes sculptural work that combines industrial images (gears, hooks, pulleys) with clay, glass and metal.

Forest To Fly: Jim's interest in fly fishing has also led him to make his Forest To Fly fly tying work benches, which incorporate beautiful hardwoods, metal and ceramics into incredible fly-tying work stations.
