Born and raised in Victoria, British Columbia, Glenn was first introduced to woodturning in his high school years.  Over time he has perfected his craft, creating larger and more intricate pieces.

 

Glenn’s choice of shape and form is inspired by the individual characteristics of each piece of wood. Looking at the colour and grain, he carefully turns each piece.  Many of the ideas for the shapes and forms are inspired by objects encountered in everyday life. Some shapes evolve over time while others come as the piece is being turned. Golden yellow, blue grey, pink and green, each piece is a unique display of colour and pattern, an original, with the grain, colour and imperfections adding character.

 

Glenn and his family reside in BC, where he works in the forest industry

Inukshuks by Ameraq and A.J. Reynolds 

Inukshuk by Reynolds  7.5x6.25 Shale and stone  $95	Inukshuk by Reynolds  6x5.5 Shale and stone  $65
Inukshuks by Ameraq  4x4.5 in.  Soapstone $35	Inukshuk by Ameraq  5x3 in. Solid Alabaster $45

The Inuit people make Inukshuk in different forms and for different purposes: symbolic,

as a connection to their  home or loved ones, to show directions to travelers, to warn

of impending dangers or to mark a place of respect. Similar stone figures were made

all over the world in ancient times, but the Arctic is one of the few places where they

still all stand.

Each Inukshuk is unique in its own style, just as the builder is unique in his own personality.

The Inukshuk has become a true Canadian symbol.

Lorel Sternig, with the help of her husband, John, work together creating raku pottery and sculpture in the Kamloops, BC area.  Lorel began her fine arts education in the B.C. interior at the University College of the Cariboo (1979-1982).  After completing the program there, she went on to Emily Carr College of Art and Design in Vancouver (1982-1983) and then returned to Kamloops to set up her studio.

 

Since leaving art school Lorel has done a full range of disciplines with clay, going from production pottery to building large vessel shapes and clay sculptures.  Much of her current work begins with thrown forms or slabs of clay on which drawings are etched.

 

Lore works almost exclusively with raku which is derived from an ancient Japanese form of firing.  The pots are fired quickly in a small outdoor kiln.  When the glaze has melted they are removed red hot with tongs and placed in a bed of straw or newspaper and allowed to cool.  The unusual colors, patterns and metallic finishes come from the smokey atmosphere and rapid cooling.

 

Lorel Sternig’s work is primarily shown in galleries and invitational or juried shows in Western Canada.
