Since 2017, Beth has combined her background as a professional illustrator with a passion for the sgraffito carving technique to create "illustrated pottery". A full-time potter and owner of Minnesota-based Beth Elliott Pottery, her work emphasizes an organic interplay of form, line, and texture. Nature is her inspiration, with detailed patterns often rendered in black and white with selective glazing to provide both tactile and visual contrast.

Kim, of Imokim Pottery, is a Minneapolis based ceramicist. She strives to create functional art that is meant to be seen and used everyday. With a BFA in fashion design from the Fashion Institute of Technology, she is drawn to form, texture and functionality. Most of her pieces are manipulated, painted, and carved, at the greenware stage, to create new textures and patterns.

Melissa is a B.F.A graduate from UMN with an emphasis in ceramic sculpture in 2019. Since graduating, Melissa has transitioned her practice into smaller and more functional based work under the name Keeping It Together Pottery. Her work varies with not only different inlay and sgraffito techniques, but also varying forms and altered forms. She does like her ceramic name says, whatever helps her keep it together.

Ralph Nuara began making pottery while attending Rhode Island School of Design where he received a BFA in Textiles in 2003. He continued his pottery practice while working in NYC as a designer and buyer in the textiles and home furnishings industry. After three years of designing full time he decided to dedicate more time to hands-on making in the studio. Before relocating to Minneapolis in 2008 he has moved about studying and making pottery at studios in RI, NY, and IL. He is continually exploring the relationships between function, form, and surface to keep his pieces fresh and his time in the studio challenging. He draws inspiration from a wide variety of sources ranging from traditional Japanese folk pottery and textiles to Abstract Expressionist painting. He makes pieces with the intention that they be used regularly and strongly feels that a broken pot has fulfilled its role better than one which has never been used.

Ray is a St. Paul based ceramicist. His work is primarily in functional, wheel thrown pieces with whimsical surface decorations and explorations of form. He enjoys making work inspired by the media and people he loves. Most of their pieces are for food use; with the hope that people use them for a unique, eclectic table spread or their next dinner party.
