Featured Artist at The Potters Place throughout the month of September, 2014
Form vs Function by Sylvia McGorlick.

One doesn't have to choose between form and function with the pottery of Sylvia McGorlick.
You get it all with this wonderful work.
Sylvia dances with several styles and methods of firing her work. It is all functional and perfect for serving your dinner on or serving your guests at your next big bash.

Sylvia is known for making very utilitarian pottery, including bowls and platters, butter dishes and casserole dishes, honey pots and tea pots. Her glaze combinations are often earthy with reds and browns and colours that dance and flow into one another, creating a whole new glaze where several overlap.

On display in our Featured Artist Window, Sylvia will have pieces that are salt fired, wood fired, electric fired and pit fired. Each of these firing methods create a very different end result.

Courtenay has become the Pottery Mecca of Vancouver Island and The Potters Place is THE GALLERY in town where you and your guests can find wonderful LOCAL art at affordable prices.

Sylvia will be at the gallery all day on September 12th and 15th from 10 - 5.

Come see McGorlic's new works as FEATURED ARTIST throughout September 2014 at The Potters Place at the corner of 5th and Cliffe. We are located at the Potters Courtyard, in the cultural heart of Downtown Courtenay. 10 - 5 pm Mon-Saturday.

Parking located at rear of the building along the fence.
