Fantastic Ceramics at ACC Baltimore

There are about 75 booths packed with ceramics here at ACC Baltimore, presenting a certain time-space challenge for a medium junkie such as myself. (That's time, as in never having enough of it to spend in each artist's booth, and space, as in having just one carry-on bag at my disposal.)

A few of of the many that caught my eye:

The Oxide Pottery crew (Chatham Monk, Justin Rice, and Joe Monk) brought an assortment of fantastic work from their fledgling shop (opened in November 2009), including both wheel-thrown and hand-built ceramics in a range of rich, groovy colors.

Dustin Harris, whose elegant soda-fired work is both classic and hip. He fires some of his vessels upside down, or on their sides, producing eye-catching patterns and texture. He's also got a number of beautiful etched pieces (a partnership with another artist, who does the designs).

Ryan J. Greenheck, who makes elegant/utilitarian wheel-thrown porcelain vessels - strong, clean forms, with handsome glaze design. Great sense of (and attention to) detail.

Brian R. Jones makes dreamy earthenware; I'm partial to his butter houses and house-lidded jars. He has a great eye for color, finishing off neutral-toned bases with unexpected geometric smudges and patches of pigment.

Justin Rothshank brought a lot of his lively decalware: plates, mugs, vases, pitchers, and other vessels decked out with a combination of custom laser-printed images and commercially available decals. His work is striking, especially grouped together.
