Barb Crosbie

The pottery that comes out of Barb’s kiln reflects the marriage of her passions, capturing the essence of nature in the permanence of clay.  Her work combines elements of her time spent sampling aquatic environments, her love of being outside and the joy of feeling earth’s elements in her hands.  Fish, canoes, mugs, these all speak to her time as a field biologist on the water in a canoe with a steaming mug of hot coffee gliding through the water as fish silently and secretly swim underneath. Barb strives to make her art joyful, functional, and ergonomic, a pleasure to both look at and use.  She trusts the piece you choose will bring a smile to your face, or the person who receives her pottery. Barb’s works change with her location, from whimsical birds resembling those in her yard to the fish she catches on her many adventures. As a practical person and one who tries to find daily purpose, Barb feels that functional art generates a piece that has dual purpose, beauty and a use in your home.  This pottery is functional, kitchen friendly and food safe.
