"Trio of Textures...Fall Colors in Glass, Clay and Wood". Crow Valley Pottery has assembled a colorful collection of pumpkins, gourds and birds of the season! Glasswork by Glassquest Studio brings pumpkins in all manner of shapes, sizes and colors! Their curly green stems contrast with the bright colors of the fruit itself...perfect for the fall table! Of course the much-loved pots from our own studios will join the glass work in the window at our Eastsound gallery! Jeffri's artistry is evident as he puts his hand to pottery...plates to platters...with curly stems and bright leaves. Accompanying the autumn colors are the wonderful carved birds, in reclaimed wood of course, of Marlene Dusbiber. This trio of textures sets the tone for Crow Valley's fall season...with a host of new offerings that for 49 years has defined the Orcas Island art scene.
