About the Artist:Susanne James is an artist who resides in the Haliburton Highlands. She primarily works in stoneware pottery, but also has 10 years of experience with glass. She is also an avid knitter, and has developed a popular line of pottery accessories especially for knitters. For well over a decade Susanne has studied and worked with many artists, primarily at the Haliburton School of the Arts. Her work is featured in shops and galleries in the Haliburton area as well as at the annual summer Tour de Forest. About Her Art:In her work, Susanne seeks to evoke the beauty of her natural surroundings -- the water, granite and leafy forests of this Canadian Shield region. Susanne's work is almost always made to be functional as well as beautiful to look at. She concentrates on simple forms, subtle and natural colours, and organic shapes. All glazes are foodsafe, and safe for use in the oven and microwave. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, handmade in her Haliburton studio. You can find out more about Susanne on her personal website.
