Here are the visuals Teafarm on YouTube
The studio and gallery will be closed during the month of January. I am still here working away but I need to paint the floor in the new studio. Things will be somewhat upside down for a bit.
I look forward to re-opening February 2, 2012 with my annual 2nds sale.
The exhibit with Christina Mosegaard and Marianne Brown is on until Saturday December 31st.
This week’s open hours:
Wednesday December 28th – Friday December 30th 10am – 4pm
Saturday December 31st 10am – 2pm
our current exhibit will remain up until December 31st.
Feature artists are goldsmith Marianne Brown and Danish painter Christina Mosegaard
here are some pictures of the once milking room now gallery…
Wishing you the very merriest of Holidays.
My studio and the teafarm gallery will be open today December 24th from 10 am – 2 pm.
We will close for the rest of December and will reopen January 20th. If you are in the neighbourhood and would like to stop by the gallery, do let us know. We will be renovating the studio and gallery for the 2011 season.
I wanted to thank all of you who have sent me your tea stories and entered your names to win one of my handbuilt teapots. The draw happens December 15th at my studio. We will be serving a variety of fairly traded teas and goodies to go along. If you are in our neighbourhood come on by to help us celebrate International Tea Day. If you are unable to come you can still enter the draw by sending me an e-mail with a personal tea story. Enjoy a fairly traded cup of tea and think fondly of all the tea workers that enable our tea pleasures.

It is exactly five years ago that we finished the studio and opened the doors for the first time. What a fun ride it’s been to improve and change and grow within the space and with everyone who has stopped by the studio over these past five years. There is lots to celebrate and be thankful for.
This weekend I will be celebrating and sharing the space with Coco Jones. I fell in love with Coco’s paintings when I first saw them after we moved to the Cowichan several years ago.
Coco has a great sense of humour and a wonderful eye. Her paintings are remarkable. It is such a treat to have her work with me for the month of December.
If you are in the neighbourhood of Vancouver Island I highly recommend you stop by the studio for a visit. Teafarm is well stocked with beautiful teas. We are launching our new zodiac teas this month so stay tuned for your year and flavour!

So I realize the blog has been very quiet as of late. A quiet blog usually means a very busy studio. I have been completing all sorts of clay projects and, on top of it, the gallery and tea area is getting a new floor. I am still able to work in the studio but since everything is upside down and not looking its best, we have decided to close the tea bar and studio until April 8. We promise it will be worth the wait and I really look forward to showcasing all the brand new pieces I have been working on. If you are visiting from a far and really want to come by, please give me a call @ 250 748 3811.
