You will enjoy this podcast with the amazing Rebecca Budd, where a potter tells us how she followed her dream to become an international selling ceramist and how she built her own wood burning kiln, one brick at a time. She mentions her mom as well. I am bursting with pride.
Welcome to Tea Toast & Trivia.
Thank you for listening in.
I am your host Rebecca Budd, and I am looking forward to sharing this moment with you.
Today, I am heading over to Mudge Island, located within the scenic Gulf Islands, between Vancouver Island and Gabriola Island. I am delighted and thrilled to meet up with Marcelle Glock, Ceramist to discuss the wood fired ceramic tradition.
Marcelle is a remarkable artist. Her pottery and sculptures sit in private collections around the world. Her artwork encompasses stoneware, raku, and local wild terra-cotta. Marcelle forms clay into extraordinary artworks – from functional to sculptural, wearable and oracle. She imbues each piece with a primal reverence toward the natural world.
I invite you to put the kettle on and add to this exciting conversation on Tea Toast & Trivia.

I enjoy watching artists succeed. I’m married to one and I appreciate all the “genres” in visual arts he’s tried: Cartoon, ceramics, sculpture, watercolor, acrylics, chalk art and now book illustration.
Kudos to Marcelle and all her tribe!

Oh, thank you so much, Annika, for these kind words. My part of her success is very small as she is the one who has done all the hard work. It was so great to see her in September. No matter the miles between us, we are very close. xo

Darlene, I was finally able just now to listen to this conversation with your daughter. It was so interesting to hear about building the kiln and working with clay. A lot of physical labour, but I appreciated her passion for the work.
