Good luck to the online auction for Japan

American/Japanese potter, Ayumi Horie is organising an online auction to raise funds for the victims of the earthquake and resulting tidal waves in Japan. Handmade works will be photographed and put on a special ebay site.  A similar auction raised a lot of money for the people of Queensland, Australia earlier this year.

 

Her work is fun and quite distinctive with whimsical drawings. This plate is from her website. http://www.ayumihorie.com/   I imagine there will be many other well known potters donating their works.

There is also a Facebook page being set up and Ayumi has her own Facebook page.
