Steve Becker
My pottery begins with touch: soft clay on the wheel, shaped by hand, firmed for carving, then transformed by glaze and fire. In this work I explore surface as landscape—white crawl glaze over black slip, layered blues, carved marks, and sodium silicate crackle that suggest bark, stone, scales, mountains, and weathered ground. I am drawn to the small textures in nature that are easy to overlook, and to the place where careful making meets accident. These mugs, bowls, vases, and jars aren't made to sit still. They're made to be lived with—picked up, turned in the hand, and discovered a little more each time.

Patrick Kochanasz
It's hard to encapsulate just how inspiring these terrains are. I've delighted in exploring these mountains for much of the last decade. My paintings are the result of some attempt to capture my relentless, wandering observations; they are the embodiment of a constant interest and profound fascination in the impressions nature leaves me with—ornaments of that remarkable topography, both vast and diminutive.

Come early for the best selection and a chance to chat with both artists. Purchased artwork may be taken home immediately.
