It is the common things that compel me to paint; busy streets, the factories, the harbours. These are the places where people live their lives, a place where I can speak in paint and record the humble beauty of the simple things around us.

Janet Horne Cozens

​My work explores the relationship between natural world and us, the viewers, or occupiers of this world, using colour, texture and shape. With influences from the Group of Seven, First Nations artists and my own background as a printmaker, I developed a style that reflects not only what the viewer expects to see in these landscapes, but also the hidden influences of people on these views through the unexpected use of man-made pigments.

When I was growing up in Northern Ontario, I took my surroundings for granted as most children do. It was only when I started to return there as an adult that I saw not only the beauty of the land, but also the relationships that different groups of people had to the land ranging from the privileged who claimed the waters for their sport, to the natives who tended the land, to the long reaching effects that we all have on the climate and the land.

Tanya MacLean - tMac Pottery

I create handmade stoneware functional pottery made in Copetown, Ontario. The combination of turquoise glaze and raw clay creates a dynamic esthetic. 

Beautiful and functional pottery is the goal, creating pots that are a joy to hold and behold.

I am a Nurse Practitioner by day and a Potter in the my spare time.

Creating pottery is a creative and relaxing artistic outlet that the whole family partakes in.
