'Stay Close To Nature'  is exactly what North Vancouver, BC artist Nancy Cramer intends to do.  This rustic hand built clay vase illustrates Nancy's spiritual belief in nature. By combining what she has found on the beach with forest treasures, she embellishes her hand built piece.  The use of oxides in the firing process enhances and defines the hand made stamps of leaves imprinted on the exterior.  This natural  "primitive" style vase is glaze-finished inside allowing for cut flower arrangements.
