Connie Glover is an established ceramic artist. She has exhibited widely and taught for many years in her own studio and at community centres in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia.

In recent years Connie's work has involved numerous public and community art projects. "Making our urban environments more livable and engaging seems a worthwhile pursuit. When citizens become involved in making art for their community, they tap into a sense of ownership and belonging, a feeling of being at home."

Over three decades, Connie's work has evolved towards an organic quality, inspired by the natural world. In addition to murals, large-scale public art projects and private and corporate commissions, Connie creates large, one-of-a-kind sculptural pieces, influenced most recently by the forms of seed pods and buds. Connie's work celebrates "the energy of new growth, the unfolding, and the promise of new life".

Connie studied ceramics at Douglas College, Surrey, BC, and at Laguna Beach School of Art in California. In the past few years she has completed residencies at the Banff Centre in Alberta, in Aomori, Japan and at San Bao Ceramic Arts Institute in Jingdezhen, China.
