Elaine Brewer-White
Elaine Brewer-White has been working full time as a ceramic artist for over 40 years. Upon graduating from Emily Carr College of Art she commenced her career in figurative sculpture, creating work for public and commercial galleries where pieces have found their way into corporate and private collections worldwide. In the last 15 years she has also developed a pottery practice, to reach another audience.
All Elaine's work incorporates social comment and humor, with reoccurring themes of nature, humanity and absurdity expressed through gesture, texture, and color.
Elaine seeks to uplift and entertain and celebrate our similarities instead of our differences. She looks to share her experience in the business of art and promote the incredible talent and diversity of B.C. artists in all mediums.
Pen-Hsuan Hsing
Pen is a graphic designer and self-taught wood designer. She started her connection with Circle Craft co-op when she participated as a Budding Artist at the holiday show in 2018, and became a member in 2019.
Pen involves herself in the co-op whenever possible, including volunteering numerous hours at the store when it was short-staffed after the forced closure during the pandemic, always engages and showcases her work at the in-store pop-ups, constantly supplies the store with her best work, and was the committee chair that organized the Circle Craft 50th celebration event at the Net Loft in 2024. She is also the liaison that coordinated the establishment of Circle Craft's Paul Yard memorial scholarship with Emily Carr University.
She looks forward to continuing contributing her energies and utilize her outgoing personality to engage with the organization, and is looking forward to be part of the initiative that will investigate the possibility of Circle Craft setting up an online shop.
