Powell River in Photos: Ceramics V

Ceramics V

The fifth in this ongoing series featuring west coast potters is a stoneware tea set by Meg Buckley. She was a

potter for almost 50 years, since 1980, till a recent retirement, on Salt Spring Island. Her studio on the Fulford

- Ganges Road was well know for her functional ware in this speckled oatmeal glaze. As she's now retired,

the next time I drop - and break - the lid to that sugar bowl, I will no longer be able to drop into her

Salt Spring gallery to replace it.

I worry about breaking our Cranberry Pottery mugs but I enjoy them too much to stop using them. - Margy

Another beautiful set, all the more precious in being irreplaceable.

A retired life in Powell River, my home for over 40 years. Photos of people, events, scenery, birds, floral and whatever else happens to catch my eye between Saltery Bay and Lund. The photos will be a mix of current photos and those pulled from my ever growing archive, but all will be taken by myself. While Powell River is home, I do occasionally leave town, and that also will be reflected here.

Unfortunately I'm dealing with a few issues that require me to at least temporarily slow down on the photography and the blogging. The joys of getting old!

So I'll still post, but definitely a bit erratically.

And please note, all my posted photos are under copyright.
