Ceramic is clay from the earth plus fire, colored with minerals ranging from common iron oxide to gold and silver. Linda Bernard will explore forms, images, and colors that reflect our beautiful Earth. She hopes they may inspire us with fire in our hearts to take care of our amazing home and its people.
