Celia Allen’s Studio
The thing I love about Celia Allen’s work is that she doesn’t just sculpt a ‘dog,’ she captures the love of ‘dogdom,’ with playful poses and interactions between two pieces. It shows her love and understanding of dogs. It would be fun to be a dog at her house. :0)

Christine Cummings creates wonderful ceramic sculptures of all kinds of things. They are beautiful, but the thing that got to me was that the poses of the dogs made it clear that Christine loves dogs. I love her work.
