Description:
CAP-À-AIGLE. Pay attention while you're humming east on 138, or you'll miss this quaint little shop, which is well worth the stop. A veritable treasure trove of unique ideas, Ms. Bertrand's décorative pottery celebrates Charlevoix's natural beauty by depicting scenes and wildlife from the area – either painted or hand-engraved. While pottery is Ms. Bertrand's specialty, she is also a very capable painter whose watercolors have captured several area landmarks, like the windmill on the Île-aux-Coudres. |

STE-IRÉNÉE. Ah, the talented DeBlois, whose imaginative work has gained international renown.

Joan displays her handiwork, including raku (Japanese pottery) and her unique "OZE" collection. |
