Bonnie Anderson
Bonnie Anderson, owner of Potters Addict Ceramic Art Centre, studied at the University of Calgary where she triple majored in painting, printmaking and ceramics. In 1990 the lure of the Okanagan brought Bonnie to Kelowna with the dream of establishing a ceramic arts centre.
Having realized that dream, she has been teaching pottery to children, youths, adults and seniors for over 25 years. All of Bonnie's clay works and paintings are produced in her studio/gallery at Potters Addict. She also sells her work in other galleries across Canada. Along with raku and smoke fire works, Bonnie has a beautiful collection of functional pottery and paintings in oils, acrylics, Encaustic (painting with hot wax) and watercolours.
Anetta Sidorowicz
Anetta Sidorowicz, Potter Extraordinaire! And partner with Bonnie Anderson at Potters Addict Ceramic Art Centre. Anetta Sidorowicz. As a highly motivated and result orientated ceramic artist, I have a proven track record of teaching clay as an art form, which includes glazing and decorative techniques and the ancient method of sculpture and coil design. In my recent work the primary importance is to find the vocabulary of visual expression and to catch the liveliness and sense of motion in clay. By using classical wheel thrown forms I alter the clay by cutting through the walls then reattaching the pieces together, these are the key elements which help me to create an imbalance of the classical form causing a surface change between the front and the back of the work. I am a graduate student from the Alberta Collage of Art In Calgary with a degree in ceramics and design.
