I created this cremation urn for a hockey-lover! I hand-built the shape from white earthenware clay and I glaze fired it in my kiln at 1900 degrees. This specific urn is a portion urn, sized to hold about 1/3 of an adult males ashes. I put the person name and vital statistics on the back, so all you see from the front is the Detroit wheel and wing.
Odyssey Arts
Maker Marketplace is a perfect outlet for me. I make customized pottery items from my small home studio in West Bend, Wisconsin.
I don't have much extra space, so I like to concentrate on making projects that are exactly what you want. I enjoy very unique commissions.
Odyssey Arts takes commissioned orders for custom pottery items, and portraits.
I also do business as Odyssey Urns, specifically making custom urns for People and Pets. I would love to help you Create a Unique Legacy!
The urns you see here are examples to show the quality and type of work I do. My examples are meant to give you inspiration and ideas about who you are and how you want to be remembered: your interests, your accomplishments, your hobby or business, etc.
I also make conte (a hard pressed charcoal in earth tone colors) drawing portraits.
The custom made urn that Rosemarie made for me completely surpassed anything that I had hoped for, it is absolutely fantastic. From our very first conversation Rose listened and asked all the right questions. I told her that I wanted a peach shaped urn with a lizard on the top. During the conversation Rose picked up on the fact that the lizard I had requested was actually a Carolina Anole because I told her where I live in South Carolina we had anoles which looked like little lizards. Rose took it upon herself to look up pictures on the internet so she could make an urn with an authentic looking Carolina Anole. She even asked me if I wanted a male or female! The underside of the throat is a different color for males and females. Rose delivered the completed urn within the time frame promised. If you are looking for someone that can turn your vision into reality then look no further than Rosemarie, you will receive something very special for a reasonable price.
Rose is an incredible artist and great communicator. I loved the final project!
Item was made just like we wanted and arrived safely!
I could not be happier!!!!!
It is a wonderful experience to work with Rose. Even though I mismeasured my project, we worked together to make it right. I would order from her again in a heart beat.
