Carolyn studied Fine Arts in Montreal and Edmonton, working in oils, acrylics, printmaking and concrete before falling in love with clay. Now based on Vancouver Island, she brings decades of artistic exploration to her ceramic sculptures, a celebration of character, connection and creativity.

My sculptures are playful and quirky and often place subjects in unlikely situations. Birds are riding when they can fly; polar bears sailing when they can swim. Many of my characters act against their usual instincts… All are meant to have us pause and consider all we have in common with our fellow creatures. – Carolyn Houg
