Best Of2024

Gracing craft markets in Cincinnati and the Midwest at large, ceramicist and illustrator Linnea Campbell combines her talents to communicate an important message on behalf of those that can’t speak: our native wildlife. Through her one-of-a-kind functional wares, Campbell adds realistic, delicately detailed designs of the often overlooked and underappreciated creatures surrounding us, shedding light on the unique role each plays in our ecosystem. With over 50 illustrations ranging from foxes and skunks to bats and lizards to bees and cicadas, each unique piece is a delight to see, hold and use — all while celebrating our interconnectedness in the process. linnea-campbell.com.
