 | Artist: ARTiculate
Here you will find bowls, vases, candle holders, or pen holders that are works of art, hand carved from alabaster. Alabaster is a beautiful stone in which patterns shift and change constantly, allowing for variety in visual texture.
Each design is unique—there are no two alike no matter how similar the pattern. Each piece is meant to provide a difference in perspective as well as take the eye and imagination on a creative journey.

 | Artist: Building Clay
Diane currently lives and works in Maurice, Louisiana, where she creates clay sculpture in her garden-studio. The studio was built in 1999, but she has been building clay since 1992.
I work with clay in many ways using a variety of techniques and firing types. My pieces generally begin on the wheel as a whole or in parts. Though I have no particular favorite, I do find the immediacy of the raku process, and it's hauntingly moody surfaces greatly alluring.

 | Artist: Chadd Fine Art and Design
Artists Janice Ososke-Chadd and Michael Chadd are currently collaborating to create original 3-d mixed media sculpture with paper, pigment and wood. We combine acrylic and watercolor paintings on watercolor paper with hand sculpted hardwood frames. The hardwood is faux finished with bronze, stone, marble, abstract and other finishes. All surfaces are sealed with a clear finish.
We transform our paintings into unique 3-d mixed media sculpture. With some pieces the painting is back lit from a single bulb mounted within the frame, giving the painting a soft, warm glow that creates an added beauty and dimension to the paintings. Some pieces are non-illuminated and are strictly non-functional 3-d mixed-media sculptures. All work is original and completely created by the artists in collaboration.

Artist: Charlotte Riley-Webb
Her rhythms continue to resonate far beyond the boundaries of her art. Likewise the abstract works have transitioned into her unique Charlotte Riley-Webb energy and style. These paintings are considered contemporary realism with an abstract flair. Regardless of genre, her signature bold, colorful strokes which seem to dance beyond the borders are evident in all of these pieces.

Artist: Clay Images
Our fertile imaginations and hard-working hands have created a unique line of friendly dragons in stoneware clay. Though each is a fine sculpture on its own, they also all have a function - oil lamps, incense burners, and drinking vessels.
We sell our wares from our home, through the internet, at art fairs around the U.S.A., and at the Kansas City and Arizona Renaissance Festivals.

Artist: Cold Porcelain Designs
All my designs are hand sculpted using cold porcelain clay. Everything from the face to the ear or the tiniest flower is hand sculpted by me. I prepare, mix and cook the clay and then color it. Once the clay is ready to use, I then begin to sculpt my designs. All done, I seal the pieces with a matte lacquer spray and store them in a zip bag to prevent them from collecting dust. They are tucked away until they are ready to be sent away to their new homes.
