Luster Vessels by Paul J. Katrich
for the Pier Antique (and Art) Show

Revelation in the Cathedral
Vessel 1663 (10-1/2").

"Important vessel is a riot of color,
depicting "rose windows" ablaze with spiritual light.
In a sacred space outside of space, an ecstasy of
visions rolls and spins in an undefined cosmos."

Alpine Gorge
Vessel 1664 (7-3/4").

"Deeply textured vessel in gold and evergreen,
clinging to the walls of an immemorial mountain rift.
Like a Chinese scholar's treasure, an entire nature
hides among the mossy craigs, never the same
from any vantage."

Neptune's Goblet
Vessel 1665 (8-1/2").

"Medallions of sunken treasure hue to encrusted walls.
Each doubloon bears the impressions of sea shells,
as in nature, no two alike. A mysterious relic from
"Davy Jones' Locker.""

Fool's Gold
Vessel 1666 (6-1/2").

"Gilded umber and turquoise densely sprout
electrum and amber."

Blue Cosmos
Vessel 1667 (9-1/2").

"White hot and blue stars in borning and dying,
cling in a rhythmic firefall to the gestations of
outer space. Golden trails expand and erupt
with acts of creation and destruction."

November Morning
Vessel 1668 (9-1/2").

"Silken matte foliage of saffron scarlet is
touched with clear golden rays in a purified sky."

Lifting of the Morning Mist
Vessel 1669 (8").

"Aureoles of violet light suffused with
satin iridescence are called forth
with the progression of day."

New Maples
Vessel 1670 (8").

"Freshest iridescent-emerald shoots pulse with
new life through their supporting branches."

External Ember
Vessel 1671 (7-1/2").

"Volcanic vessel of dazzling orange violet,
expelled in a burst of magma. Retaining the
nuclear heat of its hidden creation."

Atlantic Dawn
Vessel 1672 (11").

"Bright suns cast gold rays through
pulsating waves of turquoise and ultramarine."

Hall of the Mountain King
Vessel 1673 (11").

"An amber pass through emerald woods,
fraught with myth, and lit by a guiding torch."

Birds of Paradise
Vessel 1674 (9").

"Glorious vessel of exotic color,
recalling the iridescent plumes of the
illusive inhabitants of the jungle canopy."

Follow the Sun
Vessel 1675 (12").

"Stalwart sunflower gazes longingly
over its domain of tangled leaves and
golden droplets of light, ever seeking
the open sky."

Icelandic Glacier
Vessel 1676 (8").

"Fields of unearthly snow confront
violet-red volcanic heat, erupting into
scalding vapor of lapis blue."

Green Nighttime
Vessel 1677 (8").

"Clouds of steel blue race 'round
a forested, iridescent Earth,
elusively glimpsed as they pass."

Leaving the Forest
Vessel 1678 (9-1/2").

"Silken matte of intense blues and greens
gives way to the amber light of a welcome clearing."

First Frost in the Huron
Vessel 1679 (12").

"A tangle of native plants are frozen
in the changing season, and captured in purple ice."

Cherry Blossoms
Vessel 1640 (5").

"The lavender awakening of Spring's symbolic bloom
lightly dusts branches against an azure sky.
The iridescent air is touched with flecks of gold."

Red Dusk
Vessel 1650 (5-3/4").

"Wind-transported clouds in red, violet and
gold progress through a turquoise sky."

Running Through the Desert
Vessel 1659 (7").

Chicory
Vessel 1660 (8-1/2").
