Inese Westcott is a Latvian-born artist, now living on Orcas.
"The energy of the earth, sea, sky, and especially the trees, has nurtured her throughout her life and her sweetest desire is for the viewer to be similarly energized by the spirit of nature embodied in her art. This magic is in her art, and thus the viewer is transformed. Her art is truly a gift to be experienced and cherished."

Forest Ceramic Company is located on Orcas, and owned and managed by Sean Forest Roberts, and run by our tiny team of 6.

This original blue and purple glaze jar comes from an Island institution: Orcas Island Pottery.

Located in the pristine beauty of Orcas Island in the San Juan Archipelago of Washington State, Orcas Island Pottery is the oldest studio pottery in the Pacific Northwest, and creates and sells some of the most original and beautiful pottery in the Northwestern United States.

Encaustic Sculpture from Kandis Susol, created with Japanese Kozo pulp, wax and damar resin to reflect the flow of nature's elements and to evoke a meditative state of mind. Kandis works out of her studio known as Jakuan (Arbor of Tranquility), located on remote Orcas Island, where she creates her encaustic paper sculptures as a form of spiritual practice. She infuses each piece with a meditative quality and materials representing all four earthly elements: water, air, fire and earth. 12" x 12" x 4".

Kimple SJI Painted Map 1933 Reproduction from Peter Fisher.
"From about age three, (circa 1960) growing up in Arkansas, I remember knowing two things: I wanted to be an artist and I wanted to share my joy of playing in nature by making art. The Orcas I visited many summers as a kid included stays at North Beach Inn, running around Madrona Point, and visiting my grandparents, who moved to Grindstone Harbor in 1964.

Giclee reproduction of photograph.

Robert Dash is an award-winning photographer and science educator whose work features the complex textures and patterns of micro nature. His work highlights microscopic natural subjects with significant climate and biodiversity stories. His photographs have been published by National Geographic, TIME, Lenswork, and Buzzfeed.

Mixed media head mount sculpture of antelope by Marjorie Taylor. Marjorie is a self-taught artist whose work includes fabric brain art (neuroscience imagery in hooked rugs, beadwork and quilting), wearable art, and fabric sculptures. Her most recent work is "vegan taxidermy" - animal replicas that are a mix of realism and fantasy. These one-of-a-kind pieces are made from vintage needlepoint, faux fur, chenille, beads, ribbons and hard foam. No actual animal parts used in the construction of this vegan taxidermy piece.

Giclee print - 2 of 30, limited edition, archival quality by Kate Geddes. Geddes works in the realm of mythology. Her larger-than-life paintings include representations of Monkeys (mind), Martyrs (spirit), and Mummies (body). They begin as powerful symbols that represent something profoundly personal and cathartic, but by painting's end they represent something more universal. "My paintings are a visceral expression of my inner life, my obsessions and my demons. Painting for me is an exorcism."

Original 24" x 24" stretched wood piece by John Raymond Berry. Co-creating some of the most well known business endeavors by adding branding and design and architectural planning and elements from an entirely eco green perspective. Influencing many in the spaces created and spaces portrayed in his panoramic multi layered vistas of horizon inspired by the San Juan Islands with Orcas Island particularly a base for a studio and places to meet the public.

A decorative ceramic vase, 7" x 5", hand built and then carved with tree figures, glazed and fired in the wood kiln on Orcas. Mary Jane Elgin has studied sumie painting and weaving, fiber arts, in-depth figure drawing, painting, and collage. In the early 1990's she began a serious exploration into the world of ceramics at the Creative Arts Group in Sierra Madre and developed the technique of piercing her ceramics to create botanical and landscape scenes, reminiscent of the Arts and Crafts Movement.

Handmade Sterling Silver and Tumbaga necklace from Maria Papademetriou featuring two lovebirds kissing on a tree branch.

"This necklace was made in honor of the great love that I feel for my darling husband...we are avid birdwatchers and love our feathered friends...this is what inspired this particular design."

Aristo earrings in bronze. Margaret Schafer's unique handmade jewelry recalls styles of antiquity but remains modern. She uses the lost wax casting method, also known by its French name, "cire perdue". This method involves carving an object out of wax and then replacing the wax with metal. All of the designs are currently cast in yellow bronze.

A trio of bracelets - two freshwater pearl and one gemstone - from Carol Anderson.

"A native Northwesterner, I was raised in Portland, Oregon, spent a decade on the Oregon coast and have enjoyed island life in Staten Island, New York and the Florida Keys before finding my home on Orcas in 1989. I studied commercial art in my youth but never discovered my muse until moving here. I believe the Balinese quote, 'In Bali, we have no word for art. We simply do everything as beautifully as we can.' I find Orcas Island to be a constant source of inspiration for my many projects, and try to let the world that surrounds me be reflected in my work. My intent is to delight myself and others with what I do. Color, scent and texture are my mediums. My work reflects my passion for color and light."
