JANET ONTKO | INSPIRED
Janet Ontko is inspired by the simplicity and style of the Craftsman Movement. The honesty of the materials, the look of the clay, the touch of the potter, and the return to the craft tradition compelled Janet to develop her own signature style. Her line of award-winning tiles, birdhouses, and sculptures incorporates her love of gardening and nature. Her designs have won various awards and have been highlighted in both newspaper and magazine articles.
Her tiles and sculptures have even been featured in the television set design for “Martha Stewart Living,” “How I Met Your Mother,” and “This Is Us.”
