The work of local potter and artist Janet Dunn will be on display at the Fayette County Public Library through the end of December.

Dunn’s work is earthy, bluesy, and each piece is completely unlike any other she has made. She brings nature into some of her work, adding straw, rocks and leaves or other found items from the woods surrounding her home in the middle of Fayette County.

The hues and colors of nature from the blues of water and sky to the browns and greens of leaves, grass and trees can be seen in a large portion of her completed pottery. All of her work incorporates a variety of textures. She says she is “constantly on the prowl for new textures to incorporate into my pieces. I love molding the clay, adding textures, seeing which direction the clay will take me.”

The library is located behind the Fayette County Complex.
