| Dina Wilde-Ramsing
 "I have been a potter for more than 30 years, and my affection for clay is very strong. I take great pleasure in being tied to the long stretch of artistic tradition which clay represents. Although my work is contemporary in design, it carries the influence of geology, history, archaeology.
I make many types of clay work, some of which are purely decorative. However, I consider the content of my serious work to be narrative, figurative, and personally symbolic. I would like for these symbols to establish an intimate connection between the viewer and myself. Animal and architectural imagery in my work refers to the search for sanctuary, support, and comfort, forces which shelter and transport us through life."

Ann Egan
 Ann Egan studied painting in New York City at the School of Visual Arts. After graduating, Ann soon found a job managing and desiging for a jewelry company in N.Y. Designing jewelry quickly became her main creative outlet and, although she had taken metal courses, her approach was more from a painting and designing perspective. Juxtaposing colors and shapes as a painter or a mosaic artist would, she melds together these two distinct art forms to create her own jewelry line, which she started in 1989. Ann now lives in upstate N.Y. in Ulster County with her husband and three children and happily continues to create jewelry there.
Ann's jewelry is a combination of an Italian bakelite-like resin, metals, semi-precious stones, and Austrian crystals. Using these workable modern materials Ann draws from her art history roots. She creates jewelry that calls to mind vintage jewelry, Scottish jaspers, ancient gems and colorful bakelite. This combination comes together to form a unique and art-inspired look.
