Vicki Essig
Vicki’s professional career began over two decades ago, when she studied hand weaving, textiles and design. She later became proficient at working with exceptionally fine yarns and slowly developed a body of work that incorporated intricate patterns with remnants of nature and fragments of old books. She recently built a new studio where she continues her exploration of textiles along with paper, and book arts.

Jean McLaughlin
I have been an observer, a listener, and a planner all my life. These skills, and a desire to use my hands to capture what I see, have led me to drawing and printmaking-with a focus on monotypes, woodcuts and lithographs. My work generally interprets the environment around me—which extends from the landscape to family history.

Teresa Pietsch
Finding inspiration and meaning from trees and plants, Teresa’s pots reflect ideas that are centered in life, growth, and experience.
Teresa’s work connects both the functional and the decorative, seeking to make pots that people want to touch, hold, and use.

David Ross
I create high fired stoneware and porcelain platters that are decorative and functional. My images depict sights and scenes from my time spent in nature throughout my life. My images are of deer, turtles, and horses in their natural settings. I find that people relate to these images that remind them of happy memories.
