Room & Board Holiday Entertaining Event

Seattle Magazine hosted an inspiring evening focused on holiday entertaining at the University Village Room & Board this past Thursday, October 27. A talented roster of local interior designers and bloggers each styled festive rooms in the store and shared their top entertaining tips for the season. I was thrilled to have my paintings featured in the beautiful space curated by Keri Petersen of KP Spaces with help from Alyse Hufford of Anthology House. Here are a few photos from their party-ready room:

'A Vivid Perspective' at the Bloedel Reserve

I'm excited to announce my solo show, 'A Vivid Perspective', at The Bloedel Reserve here on Bainbridge Island. The show runs August 16 - October 16 with an artist reception Sunday, September 18, from 4- 6 pm. I will be showing new work featuring five paintings based on The Bloedel Reserve. Please RSVP to Shayla Miles if you would like to attend: smiles@bloedelreserve.org

'Reflection Pool I', 20" x 30", water soluble oil on canvas

It is an honor to have my paintings on view in the dining room of the beautiful residence that was once home to Prentice and Virginia Bloedel. The entire Reserve is such an amazing and incredibly inspiring place. If you have the chance to visit I highly recommend spending a few hours exploring the grounds and soaking up the experience.

'Wavelengths' at Bainbridge Performing Arts

Thirteen new and recent paintings are featured in my show 'Wavelengths' at the Bainbridge Performing Arts Gallery for the month of May. I'm thrilled to see this collection of seascape-based paintings hanging together in this beautiful space here on Bainbridge Island. 

On Friday, May 6, an opening reception was held during the Bainbridge Island First Friday Art Walk - it was a lovely evening and a nice opportunity to talk about these pieces with friends, family and the local community. The show continues until the end of May. Bainbridge Performing Arts is located at 200 Madison Avenue North, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110. Gallery hours are Tuesday - Friday, 12 - 5 pm and 1 hour prior to each performance. These paintings are now available for purchase in my online shop.
