Carolynn Bloomer
Carolynn grew up in Montreal and moved to Toronto to attend Ontario College of Art. After graduation, she stayed in Toronto and set up a studio practice.
She loves using well-designed and well-made ware, and so she loves to make things others will love using, too. It really warms my heart to hear, "Your cup is my favourite! I use it every day!".
She has an on-going affair with porcelain, which, although it can be a difficult material to work with, rewards with its silky surface, its ability to capture fine detail, and its almost luminescent quality.
Carolynn’s work over the years has included private and corporate commissions; one of her pieces is represented in the book Great Soup Empty Bowls, produced by the Gardiner Museum.
As well as working in her own studio, Carolynn teach pottery to adults and children. She conduct workshops and enjoy doing projects with students in secondary and elementary schools.
