This photo was sent to us on New Year's Eve Day, which seemed quite appropriate for the occasion. It brings back memories of my mother painting fanciful and narative illustrations on our ceramic forms in a style that is uniquely Brenda. Since we sold the pieces without ever recording them , we feel a sence of discovery when we locate these early works by Brenda.

This piece brought to mind another series which she used to do in the theme of "See No Evil, Hear No Evil Speak No Evil". We do not have an example or documentation of those pieces but would like very much to locate their whereabouts and to also post them in this online gallery of Brenda's work.

We Thank Christine Colwell for sending this photo.
