November / December 2011 Issue

OVERVIEW OF 2011
As quickly as 2010 came and left, here we are already at the end of 2011 and 2012 is fast
approaching. Once again, with the blessings of God, JTS has had an incredible 2011 with
the growth of our customer base and the expansion of our product. Also this year, I have
had two very successful exhibitions, “Mother & Child” exhibition held in my gallery space
at Jessica’s Tileworks Studio in May and of course “My Flamboyant Teapot” exhibition
held at Doongalik Studio on Village Road.

Both exhibit featured a new body of work that I have been developing over the years
and it was a very humbling and overwhelming experience to see the receptiveness
of all those who attended, supported and purchased. Again, I wish to say a special

“Thank You“ for your continued love and support.

ACE 2011 “My Flamboyant Teapot”
Again, this exhibition was well supported and well attended. I want to extend a
special “Thank-You” to all my sponsors: DanBrad Limited, The D’Aguilar Art
Foundation, Ms. Dawn Davies, Mr. & Mrs. Tyrone Ferguson, Guanima Press Ltd, The
Culture Gallery, my husband and best friend, Carlos Colebrooke, also Mr. Antonius
Roberts, Mr. & Mrs. Earl Farrington, Tina Maycock and Shadazzar Rolle.

Each of these persons supported me in a very substantial way and without their support;
ACE 2011 “My Flamboyant Teapot” would not have been as successful as it was.

Look forward to ACE 2013 “My Flamboyant Teacup”????

Unique Christmas Gifts
So that wonderful season of lights and joy is here. Despite all the year’s changes and
challenges, all the digging up and political jazzing, the holidays remain a source of
pleasurable anticipation and delight. As an artist, I strive each year to share with others my joy in this season of promise.

This year, like last year, my focus was on ceramic pieces that would 'surprise' even those family members, friends and colleagues who annually challenge us to find gifts that they will treasure. I think I’ve hit upon just the right things. If you are challenged to find a gift for that person who has great taste, my selection of available art pieces which embodies and embraces Bahamian culture, may be exactly what you need.
