Missy Kaolin often answers the door of her home studio/gallery in Great Barrington with a half-eaten pear in her hand, prompting visitors to apologize for interrupting her lunch. The petite ceramicist lets out a hearty laugh. ``That's when I know I've got a sale," she says with a mischievous twinkle.
Kaolin's pear, you see, is made of clay. It's one of the ``In Good Taste" series of ceramic food she and her husband, Sandy, are crafting as their newest line of artistic creations. Sandy initially throws most of their works on the wheel, then Missy adds the meticulous details, painstakingly hand-building, shaping, carving, and painting. The remarkably lifelike pears, for example, come complete with Missy's own bite marks -- don't worry, she puts plastic wrap over the clay before digging in.
