For many of us, a line is the first mark we make. It Being Canadian, my country is 150 years old, is a huge developmental milestone when a young which makes it much younger than the old cultures. child’s first scribbles are set to the page (or wall!).

This child’s play has been on my mind since I visited several pottery cultures around the world. Continued next page Continued from previous page

Some five years later, I asked Vernon Owens the that Vernon’s family did in order to call yourselves same question. Vernon is the patriarch of Jugtown potters.

With all due respect for tradition and with respect for those who have learned on their own in their new, modern ways, I have to say that at this mo- ment in time, I am seeing some of the most innova- tive and exciting work of my 68 years on this earth.
