Earth song studio ceramic
tiles are
hand crafted by the team effort of
John and Shannon Gresham
in their home studio on
Gabriola
Island, off the west coast of British
Columbia Canada.
Shannon, a self taught
artist designs
and carves all the original tiles
in porcelain.
She has a background
working in
various mediums, including gemstone
carving
and has won awards for
her innovative
and intricate bead work,
from which she derived
her love for
detail.
Inspired by the natural
beauty of the
west cost, history and her Irish
background,
Shannon's wide range of
themes include
nature, botanical, mythological
and Celtic designs.
John, having a background
in
industrial pattern making for foundries,
carpentry and instrument building applies his craftsmanship skills to
the making of the tiles.
He has developed his own
unique tools
and techniques for mold making,
tile production and
firing.
While experimenting with
making tiles
for our own home, we realized
that the
combination of our skills
was perfect
for this craft.
It was love at first
tile, and we have
devoted ourselves full time to
the making of
unique and quality
handcrafted tiles,
which have made their way into
homes, shops
and restaurants the world
over, since
1995.
