HAMILTON WILLIAMS

HAMILTON WILLIAMS  North Car­olina pot­ter Hamil­ton Williams’ forms are sim­ple, with clas­sic lines and carved tex­tures that enhance form rather than dis­tract­ing from it. The col­ors of his glazes are deep, sat­u­rated, and intense… blues and pur­ples that are rem­i­nis­cent of the moun­tain land­scape, mossy greens, and deep oxblood reds.

JOEY SHEEHAN

JOEY SHEEHAN  North Car­olina pot­ter Joey Shee­han states, “my func­tional stoneware is a prod­uct of my per­sonal expe­ri­ences and the sur­round­ings in which they have occurred. Nature is beau­ti­ful, inspir­ing and unpre­dictable. I strive to give these same traits to my pots. My work is a reflec­tion of the immense pos­si­bil­i­ties brought forth to our reck­on­ing in nature and in life.”

JUSTINE FERRERI

JUSTINE FERRERI  Wilm­ing­ton, NC artist Jus­tine Fer­reri offers one-of-a-kind, earth­en­ware fig­u­ra­tive sculp­ture. Her pieces incor­po­rate vivid col­ors, many embell­ished with wire, bead­ing and found objects, and are whim­si­cal, humor­ous, and spir­i­tual in nature.

RICHARD SANCHEZ

RICHARD SANCHEZ  Richard Sanchez cre­ates his terra cotta pieces in his fam­ily stu­dio in Ore­gon. Each piece is painted with many coats of his cus­tom under­glazes which gives the col­ors a great depth and rich­ness. Every piece is a unique work of art that brings beauty to every­day items.

FLAMBEAUX ART POTTERY

FLAMBEAUX ART POTTERY  Crys­talline glazed Flam­beaux Art Pot­tery is the fusion of cre­ative forces, and very close friends, Bill Camp­bell and Kent Follette.

WILLIAM TURNER

WILLIAM TURNER  Out­stand­ing col­ors and pat­terns on raku are the trade­mark of Florida’s William Turner’s raku art. He has for­mu­lated a cop­per matte raku glaze that is one of the best you’ll ever see. He uses this one glaze in com­bi­na­tion with gloss glazes to get many metal­lic tex­tures in his unique glaz­ing techniques.
