Peter is so very accomadating. His pieces are modern and timeless. I love everything I have purchased. He is incredible at creating custom pieces that far exceeded my expectations. Thank you Peter!

What a great place. We have bought pottery a number of times from Peter and keep coming back for more. He makes wonderful art as well as functional pieces. We really appreciated how Peter made a custom large bowl for us that matched our decor and is now a focal point of our new renovated kitchen. Highly recommend him.

Peter's work is playful, with unique forms and colours catching the eye. But handling the pieces you find how well crafted they are, their shape and weight making them wonderfully functional.
Peter's work (and personability) led me to taking lessons with him. He is as skilled a teacher as artist and praise for progress is balanced with encouragement to do a little better each time. I have learned to appreciate the incredible skill and attention to detail he puts into his own work!

My husband and I just love the mugs we bought at Peter's studio. His work is unique and a lot of fun. Peter is also an excellent teacher. My 91 year old mother has been taking pottery classes with Peter for the past 2 years and it is the highlight of her week. She herself was a potter but dementia has affected her short term memory. Peter knows just how to cue her step by step and she is delighted to be working on the wheel again. Thank you Peter!

I liked Peter as soon as I met him and so will anyone else who takes the time to drop in to Blind Alley Arts. His creations are all so unique and well made. I love some for their whimsy and some for their elegance and function. Every time I visit there is a new piece I simply must have. My go to Wedding gift is now always a handcrafted piece with the couples name and wedding date on the bottom. Do your self a favor and pop in. You will be glad you did.

We commisioned Peter to create mugs to celebrate the 10th anniversary of ROQUA (Ridiculously Old Queen’s University Athletes). They were unique fashionable works of art treasured by all ten members of the group.
We meet yearly and it was our pleasure to host this milestone event in 2015. We wanted to have gifts for everyone to commemorate the event. Peter did not disappoint!
Blind Ally Arts has a variety of excellently crafted pottery items. “Peter the Potter” is a talentented artisan who creates masterpieces at every turn of the wheel.
