Zoe Pinnell

Who wants to escape into nature for just a few glorious minutes? Me too. Well, this is the work of Canadian artist Zoe Pinnell and nature abounds on the work she sent us. Just the way she expresses herself with those animal motifs, and the way Zoe creates her images to look like cloisonne enamels, and those woven clay coils that feel like crowns atop her work…. I can’t say enough about her or the work. AND we were lucky enough to meet her at NCECA a few weeks ago 🎉 🥳. Just a fantatstic person ….and yes, she was just as lovely as her work.


There is something about this work by Martha Grover that feels perfectly perfect at the moment. Colorful, whimsical, with twists and turns that make my heart race …. These thrown and altered pieces have a myriad of embellishments on the foot and the rims and the handles…that makes them seem oh so precious. PLUS, that leopard-like patterning on the surface- almost like an oil spot glaze - is to die for. So fantastic, and seriously, there are a lot more where these came from.


The variety of patterning that Peter Karner can create on each and every glorious piece of his functional ware is astounding!
All that precision and his consistent color palette just brings it all together. We just received a load of pieces from Peter, and his craftsmanship and professionalism just make our gallery-owning hearts sing!


Before becoming a ceramic artist and teacher, Ron Meyers worked as a graphic designer, and he continued drawing throughout his entire career. His 2D work is loose, expressive, and full of character. Many of his creatures are playful caricatures of people he’s met or worked with over the years. He also loved portraying himself as a rat.

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. (…)
