Baltimore Clayworks Journey- Part 1

My short time at the Baltimore Clayworks this past Saturday was ABSOLUTELY inspiring and fantastic! Got lost on the way and finally made it to the gallery and then met some who were in the midst of a wood kiln firing. They invited me to look around inside at the studio. So, here are the pics.


First this is the fountain on the corner of the property. The gallery is across the street and the studio building is on this side. A closer look at the fountain. I've never seen anything like this before.

Inside the gallery there were two sections as part of the Winterfest 2008 exhibition. These first pieces could be purchased at any time in the gallery. Names of the artists are below each picture. These are the ones I was especially interested in. If I only had the $.
Matthew Hyleck

Pamela Theis. The white is porcelain. She's the guest artist for this exhibition.












Jim Dugan. I really like the shapes of these, especially the yunomi tumbler.











Some more Jim Dugan mugs.











Collette Smith. I like the glazes and designs on these.








Kevin Crowe. Another one of my favorites. These were huge. Such simple, natural, earthy designs.

Part 2 will have the ones on the other wing of the gallery. That's all for now.
