Book Illustration & Design
In 2019 Amy and her husband Fred published their first book, “In the Wake of the Willows”. A three year joint effort, it combines the best of Fred Thurber’s nature writing with Amy’s illustrations and book design into an entertaining summer adventure story. Visit Willows.link for more info.
The Story Behind the Name
Daisy, the pet Dove, is the company mascot, and overlord to the flock of 10 heirloom hens. When Amy began selling her ceramics in 2006, the quest for a name ended when Daisy landed in Amy’s hand. The touch of Daisy’s feet sparked her curiosity and wonder, and Doves Foot Pottery was born.
