Though Vic was first introduced to clay by Jo, at the time a hobby potter, his love for the medium was truly boosted by attendance at a workshop given by Mick Casson, a well-known and highly respected British potter coming out of the Leach and Hamada tradition of pottery. In 1981 Vic began to work in production pottery studios, and he spent the next 10 years learning to hone his skills as a production thrower. Five of those years were spent working with a friend and mentor, Donn Zver in Troy, Ontario.

    Hi Uncle Vic Josie How are things? I just brought up your website as Mom is here for dinner. Long time no see or hear. I hear Auntie Anne and Tante Bernadette were to visit you recently. It feels like you 2 fell off the face of the earth. Though we are soo far apart I do think of you often uncle Vic. Just told the story of you sitting in Grade 1 with me and you had to wear the green construction paper hat (crown) so I would stay there. Hope all is well with you both. Nice to see a picture of you both. Will send another note soon. Mom says HELLO Love Ducky And Riet xxxxxxxx00000000
