Plankton Pottery

If it isn't an honest, well-crafted, one-of-a-kind piece of pottery born of the natural union of heart and mind, it doesn't deserve to wear the Plankton Pottery name. Here are double-walled creations, wheel-thrown upside-down, then carved, altered and adorned with horns, bones and dream-ward trumpets.Raku pots are fired in the traditional Japanese style, but not before being hand-painted with strikingly original Plankton designs that might, perhaps, give more insight into the artist's inscrutable psyche than you care to have.

An ancient tradition of many first peoples is adapted when Plankton returns to the beach for pit-firing. These pots are thrown simply and gracefully so that the serendipitous murals made by seaweed, metal, and salts might be highlighted.
In addition, Plankton showcases lovely and dignified urns and a line of French cooking vessels as well as an occasional work of whimsy urged out in a spasm of creativity whenever a thought bubble finds the artist in a particularly fertile mood.
