Basketry workshop results




This spring the potters in Val David asked basketry artist Nathalie Levasseur to give us a workshop in incorporating basketry elements to our pots. She graciously accepted and put together some projects to give us some skills in what to her is second nature. Let's just say the learning curve was a steep one! We struggled, cursed and then started to get the hang of it. I was very happy with the results. Then I tried it on my own, not fun. I realize that this is not the way I work, so I adapted, using wire and found bits to create something else. These are now on exhibit at 1001POTS in Val David and at Galerie ESPACE KAO, also in Val David.
