Featured Artists: Rebecca Zweibel
Hopefully, you love non-objective art as much as I do?? Welllll, these vase-inspired forms with their sculptural attitudes could very well be exactly what you were looking for today. St. Petersburg, FL. ceramcist Rebecca Zweibel creates these Fantastic! silhouette shapes and gives them a Jean-Michel Basquiat / Kankinsky painted energy to them (Now, that’s a lot of good mojo if you ask me. ). Her Slab-built forms are her canvas where she lets loose her intuitive process and allows her subconscious to come forward with the design and mark-making. These statement pieces are perfect for any display you can think of!!
Featured Artists: Andrew Krueger
Whoa!!! These are so breathtakingly beautiful that I can barely stand it. Colorful, whimsical, with those semi-matte crystalline glazes - that it make my heart race … yes, all of these pieces make me want to build a totally new collection just around these Skittles-looking stunners by Andrew Krueger. And to make them even more precious is the scale and the attention to detail. They have an intimacy to them where most can fit in the hand comfortably… and there’s also a little luster on the lips of some, just ot bring the bling.
So please have a look at Andrew’s first show with us while we anticipate many more! Enjoy
Featured Artist: Nikki Blair
Gasp! Breathtakingly bold & beautiful work by Greensboro, NC sculptor/functional ceramic artist Nikki Blair. And another Gasp! simply because her work just plain deserves it!! These little beauties are what a line drawing of a vase or plate or mug would look like if they were made by a ceramicist who loved the funkiness of Art Deco with a graphic sensibility and a dramatic feel for color. I mean - really?? what’s not to love? These statement pieces should be in the middle of everyone’s tables, and they will definitely take your breath away…
Jamie Kelly
JOk… I cannot begin to explain how happy this teapot makes me. That puffy spout and handle, n just wonderfully designed ceramic piece, is the work of Coloradian James Kelly (he goes by ‘Redbeard Ceramics’ FYI). Just his soothing color choices, the lovely cloud-like shapes, and oh, that little inverted crown that’s on most of the pieces… a recipe for fantastic-ness. You’ll adore the time and attention to detail he puts in. As well as the softness that wood firing adds to his stoneware pieces and the precision that electric firing creates in his porcelain ones… LOVE!
Michael Corney
Beautiful and bizarre … yep, always a fabulous combo. Tell me that you aren’t totally in love with these cups and shots by Mexican resident Michael Corney. Obviously, there’s a not so subtle nod towards Cinco de Mayo and all the charm and whimsy he can put into them. So, the adorability factor is over the top. We’ve got a show lined up w/ Micheal next year BUT here’s a sweet taste of what’s to come. ENJOY!!

Matilda Bliss
I was immediately drawn to Matilda’s jewelry and the unexpected way she brings together such distinctive materials.
Her pieces are exquisite. Matilda combines the humble, earthy beauty of mica with vibrant, colorful stones, creating jewelry that feels fresh, youthful, and effortlessly wearable.
Her work feels playful and unexpected, yet each piece remains beautifully refined. I love how she transforms these simple, natural materials into jewelry that feels joyful, unique, and full of personality. ✨

My wife Silvia and I have only been in the gallery business for just over five years now (plus two more years spent managing Crimson Laurel Gallery). It wasn’t something either of us had a background in or even considered when thinking about a career or starting a business, but like many things that happen in life, it just happened. (…)
