Sorrento Stoneware, Sheryl Willson & Mark Hemmingson

Sorrento Stoneware is run by Sheryl Willson in Sorrento, BC, Canada.
I create handmade pottery that brings pleasure to everyday living.

In my work I try to achieve simplicity in modern life. I have chosen
glazes that give a feeling of heritage, as well as contemporary qualities.
Reds, blacks and creams accentuate classic pottery designs.

Experimenting is a big part of my process in the studio.
One way I do this is through my hand building practice.
I use large slabs of clay to create platters and other serving dishes.
Often I have a rough idea that I “workshop” for a day,
trying whatever comes to mind as a way of achieving an original look.

If your are interested in buying pottery, my studio is open.
Or, check my website (below) for a list of stores that sell my work.
You'll also find a list of the craft sales I am in this year.
