Her new show is entitled "Bugs and Jugs" and includes a number of her watercolors which throw an interesting sidelight on her pottery with which Durham is more familiar. Come and enjoy the artist's reception Saturday, Si 26, 1-4 p.m. at Scugog Memorial Public Library, 231 Water Street, Port Perry. Jane MatIntosh is a potter who works with stoneware and porcelain with equal ease, using a classical oriental vocabulary of firing techniques and brushwork. Jane's constant desire to explore has led to the continuous development of her art. She gets enormous pleasure from facing the challenges of the process of pottery making. Each year has shown Jane maturing as she searches for ways to winnow out the secrets of the integrity of each pot hidden in the wet clay. Ranging from serenely simple vajlles to jugs to more elaborate lamps for which she custom designs harmonizing shades, all of her work from bowls to baking dishes is entirely functional. Her love of nature and natural materials, as well as her vigorous, athletic personality help give her the discipline to work over and over again on the same shape and design. NEW HOURS : Mon. Tues.
