With a natural designer's eye, a playful spirit and perseverance, Colleen O'Reilly has become a world-class potter over the past 25 years. Time has brought her wisdom, synthesis and a true understanding of "Less is More". Her bold tableware is sensuous, whimsical and at the same time serene.

Luscious colour and sensual form are her elegant tools.

When one views a piece of Colleen's "Spirited Clay" you begin to sense a dance beginning. It is an artist's spirit that recognizes beauty, form, and function can, and should, exist in one fine object.

This work that she does IS art.

Colleen is represented in international and diplomatic collections. Her work has been given to heads of state and yet one of her simple bowls can elevate a breakfast into a joyful event.
