Edwin
specializes in large decorative and functional bowls, vases,
platters and more.
Every piece would make a beautiful addition to any home, to be
treasured as an heirloom and appreciated as very special gift.
Each hand-thrown piece is truly unique and always recognizable
as created by an artist.
Edwin
was born in Belgium and graduated from the Royal Arts Academy
with an MA in Art History. He then continued his education in
London UK, at the London Polytechnic where he studied photography.
It was while he was the art teacher in an Australian high school
that he apprenticed Pottery under a Japanese Master. Pottery
has always been one of his great loves, and for 10 years he was
the night school pottery instructor at Sir Sandford Fleming College
in Peterborough Ontario. His love of teaching and pottery combined
has made him a well respected member of the craft, and many local
potters started their craft under his guidance.
Edwin
now operates the Green Heron Pottery Studio and School in Cavan,
a short drive from Peterborough. Located in the rolling hills
of Cavan and part of the artist community of Bethany, the studio
is well equipped and overlooks the hills, with lots of wildlife,
and surrounded by a garden lovingly maintained by his wife Eileen. |
