    Suzanne Northcott at her studio/shop Morph: ology

    Finally, a face to face conversation -- with Suzanne Northcott in her studio/shop Morph: ology in Fort Langley.  We talk about her exploration of re-re-purposing old textiles into unique fashion - army issued sleeping bag covers turned into jackets, lace tablecloths into beautiful blouses, and embellishing on old clothing with embroidered imagery. Suzanne talks about how she moved between different mediums, from painting to stitching, and how she fails to wrestle her muse to the ground!

    A fabulous conversation with Canadian actor, Bruce Greenwood.  He talks about events from his 30+ years in film, through his 70+ movies and tv shows.  We also discuss his life long passion for music, his singing and songwriting, and performing with his new, yet to be named band! Please note - we had some technical difficulties with the recording - zoom connections!  For his patience, I sent Bruce a mug from my new pandemic pottery series "F*****y F**k Mugs"!  A mug for a year when there's just nothing left to be said...!!!                                                           I know, I know...a shameless plug...but hey -- a girl's gotta make a liv'n!   (And this is the only reason that this episode is rated "Explicit"!!! https://elainebrewerwhiteceramics.com/store/

    Episode #9!  I am in conversation with Meira Mathison - renowned potter, and for 20+ years managing director of Metchosin International Summer School of the Arts.  We talk about where she found her clay calling - from living on a sailboat to building a house and studio to accommodate her clay addiction.  How she found her path through artist residencies, and how important it is for artists of all kinds to pursue inspiration through art centre facilities.  In the last part of our conversation, Meira talks about her involvement with MISSA, how a small movement of artists offering a few classes at a remote location in Metchosin on Vancouver Island has grown into an international school of the arts catering to facility and students from all over the world.
