Harris Morrison, the artist and designer of Shepherds Watch® sundials, has always been fascinated by artisans. When he was five, his mother took him to craft fairs in Plum Nelly, Tennessee, where he became enchanted by potters operating their kick wheels. He moved to Montreal to pursue pottery with a group of like-minded artisans, where he grew to become a Master Potter. There, with another Master Potter, Johannes Caserian, he developed a highly successful pottery business employing 15 potters.       When Johannes passed away, Harris lost a close friend and his enthusiasm for the work. He closed the pottery shop and after spending 14 years building an agency representing the best of Canadian crafts, felt it was time to focus again on something he himself would develop. While travelling in France, he came upon an antique sundial and bought it for his daughter, Selina. Selina asked question after question about it; about the sun, the stars, and time. To answer her questions, he began to do research, joined the American and Canadian sundial societies, and ended up designing and marketing personal sundials based on the originals (see The Company).       Harris still "throws" clay and works in other media as an artist and craftsman. In the meantime he keeps designing sundials and plans to launch a new line of garden sundials in the Spring of 2002.
