 | Artist: Candone Wharton Sculptural Ceramics
Candone Wharton's fine crafted, handbuilt vessels are uniquely carved with basket weave and block print designs. She is best known for her intricate work, fine luster glazes and her development of a technique that produces a metallic-like gold luster. Using Raku techniques, it is this striking combination of exciting surfaces that she intermixes that creates the mystery. When viewing her work you are transformed to a timeless place with its own language. Her surfaces speak in this language, transmitting the effect of the influence of African potters and her love for this media.

 | Artist: Chadwick Studios
Award winning artist Darron Chadwick creates thematic representations of ancient civilizations, cultures, and traditions. Aesthetically, his creations have a contemporary presence but also retain a rich, timeworn flavor as a result of the three-dimensional equivalents of calligraphic inscriptions incorporated into each piece. Further, these images not only evoke visual and perceptual depth but imply intellectual depth as well.

 | Artist: Greenbaum Studios
David Greenbaum has been working in clay for 32 years. His pottery reflects the unique designs and classic forms of the style he developed in his youth. Today, these pots radiate tranquillity and harmony as a result of David finding peace within himself and with his work.
David prefers to burnish rather than glaze his pots even though it is more time consuming. Using a hard polished stone to compress the clay's surface particles, he burnishes the pots on a wheel. First he moistens the bone-dry pot with water and burnishes it until the surface is smooth. Next, he applies a thin coating of olive oil and repeats the process. The wheel's rotation helps to eliminate the burnish marks, contributing to the pot's luminous surface quality.
After they are burnished, the pots are initially placed in an oxidation firing, then the black vessels are "sagger-fired", a process that subjects the ware to intense carbonization which permeates the clay, producing the intense black.

 | Artist: Jan Bilek - Ceramic Artist
The decorative nature of my work reflects my background as an Interior Decorator and Watercolor Artist. Although I began making functional pottery, it became clear early on that my greatest fascination in ceramics is with the wheel-thrown porcelain vessel, in particular the bottle form. I continue to love the challenge of perfecting the bottle, inspired by the the natural harmony of forms in nature and challenged by the skill required to create the most delicate tall narrow necks.
The glazes I use to enhance the bottle forms are unusual in that they are formulated to flow during the firing process instead of remaining stable on the pots. This is how I achieve transluscent color flowing into color as in watercolor paintings. Utilizing the qualities of these glazes, I strive for the perfect harmony between form and surface creating a vessel that reflects the organic balance and beauty of nature.
