Miniature Form Study
New work by Nicholas Kekic A few weeks ago I made the annual pilgrimage to the American Craft Council Show in Baltimore. This wholesale/retail show features over 850 leading craft artists working in every possible medium from all over the U.S. For years, it has been the premier show where artists display their newest work to gallery owners and collectors. I have been working in this field for over 20 years, and yet this show never fails to amaze me. Artists I’ve known for a long time continue to delight with constantly evolving designs and materials. Even more exciting are the young artists who challenge us with completely new ways of thinking and seeing. For me, the ACC Baltimore Show is a celebration of creativity, an affirmation of the inner strength of artists. For this, I am ever so grateful. 2 Responses to “New Work at The American Craft Show in Baltimore”Leave a Reply |

Hi, I was just wondering, with your vast experience, if you have ever come across anyone making ornaments using walnut shells.
My wife Karen and I have been making Christmas ornaments using walnuts and hazelnuts for the past 18 years and selling them at craft shows in Atlantic Canada. To date, none of our customers and friends have ever seen them made by anyone else.
We have no great desire at this time to grow our hobby any larger, however, I was just wondering.
