Here on Handmade Evolution I usually feature artists from North America – but today I’d like to focus on an international artist whose work has caught my eye, big time! There are so many pieces from Wapa’s store that I’d like to call my own. Wapa is owned and operated by Ada Shapira who lives in Moshav AVihail, Israel. From the moment she sat at a potters wheel Ada knew that pottery was her calling. Since receiving a degree from The Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem she has been working with pottery – creating lighting objects, home decor items, jewelry and more.

Londoner Katherine Morling creates incredibly detailed art from porcelain and ceramic. After a busy 2009 filled with studio work and studying at the Royal College of Art, she is currently working on animating the world of toys through ceramics, creating whimsical and surreal pieces. I love how intricate her pieces are; it really shows how thoroughly she plans her projects and how much time she must put into them.

Just a heads up that my posting might be a bit light this week as we are prepping our apartment for sale – so lots of organizing and cleaning and staging!

Stephanie Kao and Robert Siegel of Philadelphia have collaborated to create a wonderful line of ceramics. Each piece is hand thrown by Robert and then meticulously painted by Stephanie. I am in awe of the wonderful detail on each of these pieces and I feel as if the tall white persian vase is calling my name! I wonder if anyone I know is reading this and might surprise me this Christmas?!
