Joan Maria Petratou is the artist I was referring to and she is the
assistant Editor of the Greek Pottery magazine called Kerameiki Techni.
The address is as follows:
Kerameiki Techni
P.O. Box 80653
18510 Piraeus Greece
Tel-Fax (01) 4114322

They used to have an internet site but be darned if I can find it now.
There was a group of Greek potters came to Banff for a Canadian/Greece
Ceramics Symposium and when they were finished and before they returned
home they visited communities which held workshops for a couple of days
with them as guest instructors. Our community was lucky enough to have 2 of
them for 2 days, and Maria was one of them. For information on the
symposium you can visit the following site:

However, I'm sorry I can't give you their internet site address. Maybe
we'll be lucky and Elke Blodgett will read this, I believe she has the
address.
If you contact Maria through the magazine, feel free to tell Maria Sylvia
See says Hi and highly recommended her.
