Alexis Templeton is a Newfoundland potter celebrated for her functional ceramic work finished in beautiful and distinctive glazes.

Inspired by the natural heritage of her home province, Alexis has developed several signature glaze styles and designs during a career of more than three decades. She draws on both her artist’s eye and her technical knowledge in her continuing exploration of how colour and form, chemistry and serendipity, can yield gorgeous ceramic pieces suitable for your table or your walls.

The emphasis of Alexis' work for this year is blue crystalline glaze with beach sand from Salmon Cove Sands. Some of these pieces feature experimentation with layering blue underglaze beneath the blue glaze to achieve a deeper blue.
