We ended up going back and the artist, Kathleen Finlay, was working at the gallery that day. She was so lovely and didn’t even tell us right away that it was her painting but we were so glad she did.

My sister gave me a beautiful pitcher from Holmes County Pottery (OH) which we have on a side table in our kitchen so when she asked if I wanted to meet her kinda halfway between Columbus and Akron for their Fall Open House, it was an immediate YES!

I absolutely love tiny bowls and have started collecting them when we travel. Each time I use one for a snack or s part of a charcuterie spread, I think about where I got it and it brings back great memories. Tiny bowls are also very easy to carry home in a full suitcase!
