Ceramic artist
Margie Mikliechuk
My earliest memories are of making lumpy ashtrays and animals with my mother at an art school in downtown Winnipeg. Some things never change. Although I have spent most of my life working and living all over the world as a stewardess, I have always come home to work with clay.
Finally settled in the beautiful city of Montreal, I created Made with mud By Margie in my studio in the east end of Montreal, where I continue where my mother and I left off, creating my world of ceramic animals.
My work is both playful and functional, and I love to create objects that bring out the childlike joy that resides in all of us, while being useful when we are adults!
Examples of fun pieces for adults are my Kitty Kat and Bunny salt and pepper shakers, luscious dachshund planters and, of course, hanging doll chime ornaments.
