After years of being packed away in boxes, I finally pulled out my favorite alphabet tiles and mounted them on a board to hang in the studio. These were made at the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center just outside Detroit. Detroit, the home of Pewabic Pottery, has a long tradition of handmade tile making and it’s the place where I was introduced to the craft. I no longer have the molds of these pieces but at some point I’d like to design a simplified version and make a new set of molds.
