Now Available at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia gift shop, May 13, 2015

Here are pics of some figurines and bowls that I dropped off at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia (AGNS) gift shop in downtown Halifax on Wednesday May 13, and here's the same album on Facebook.  

The AGNS has a great shop with a wide selection of Nova Scotian made craft, such as pottery and jewelry.  And it's always open to anyone, whether you're visiting the gallery that day or not.  The Teichert Gallery, formerly known as 'Art Sales and Rentals' is a commercial gallery just across the hall and always has lots of great paintings by a variety of Nova Scotian artists to check out which are available for purchase or rent - like the gift shop it is accessible at any time without charge.  There are new shows at the Teichert Gallery every month as well as new pieces arriving every couple of weeks by gallery artists.  Check out their facebook page to see what's new!

One more art plug for another art venue: tonite (Friday the 15th) at 7pm is the opening reception for No Strings Attached - a group show in tribute to Jim Henson at the Dart Gallery.  Yay!  Looks like they have some authentic puppets, thanks to the help of one of Henson's puppeteers, ready for an awesome time!  Here's a clip from Global News this morning with more details. The show runs until June 2nd.

On to the pics: everything is cone 6 stoneware except for the kingfisher which is earthneware.  The bowls are all foodsafe, microwave safe and dishwasher safe though washing by hand is recommended.  Everything is hand sculpted & there for 'one of a kind' though sometimes I work in series.
