VANCOUVER --
A ceramic sculpture crafted by a B.C.-born actor sold for about four times the amount it was expected to bring in at auction.
An orange, knobbly vase made by Seth Rogen was one of several items for sale at an auction to support programs at the Vancouver Art Gallery.
According to the gallery, the budding artist also known for his love of cannabis started in ceramics in 2019. From his home in L.A., he now crafts vases, bottles and more, the art gallery said, describing it as "a new pot habit – ceramic pots that is."
The artist, according to those behind the description posted on the auction website, is known for is use of brilliant colours and eye-catching texture: "Rogen uses glaze sculpturally to build up the surfaces of his vases to strange and sometimes humorous effect."
