PORT LUDLOW — The Port Ludlow Art League will host a reception for Kathleen Harvey and Jolie Maki from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday.

The reception will begin at 4 p.m. in the lobby at Sound Community Bank, 9500 Oak Bay Road, then move to the league’s adjacent gallery at 5 p.m.

Harvey, the league’s artist of the month, works in a variety of media and styles, including watercolor and colored pencil landscapes, botanical illustrations, ceramics and fiber art sculptures. She holds a bachelor of fine arts degree in ceramics and sculpture but tends to go back the materials of her childhood: found objects, paper, glue and illustrations.

With those materials, she begins by creating large shapes, patterns and textures before layering the compositions with topographical maps and handmade papers.
