"Sturgeon River Pottery"
8"x10" original watercolor and pen on paper
Available at Northgoods in Petoskey
Sturgeon River Pottery is a favorite destination place here in Petoskey. You'll know it when you see it. If you're driving from Petoskey to Charlevoix on US-31 it'll be on your left just a short drive from town.
They've been around for over 30 years now and was originally founded in Wolverine. Steve and Karen Andrews offer high quality pottery made by themselves and a select few other artists. Upstairs is a working studio where you're invited to take a peek. They have open demonstration days where you'll be sure to catch an artist at work.
Sturgeon River also offers other unique items and a wide range of wild bird supplies and outdoor furniture.
This place was a LOT of fun to paint because there is so much going on! The large metal sunflowers along the front offer wonderful little pops of color. The porch is filled with dozens of different things. I simplified it all for the sake of the painting but I hope the eclectic-ness of the place still shows through!
It's a place to check out next time you come up north!
