The studio was established in 1974.  Ruth has a BA in art studio from the University of Iowa.  Bill studied architecture at the University of Waterloo.  They have exhibited well-known shows and galleries throughout Ontario.  Ruth has had pieces accepted in juried shows by Fusion and Insights over the years.

Their work is of stoneware clay, fired to cone 10 (2350 degrees Fahrenheit) in a large oil-fired kiln in a reduction atmosphere.  The high temperature ensures durability; the reduction atmosphere produces subtle variations in colour.  The kiln itself is housed in a unique dome structure designed and built by Bill.  All the ware is intended for daily use, and is safe in the oven, microwave, and dishwasher.
