Please join Laura Brodax and me at Modern Glaze, in our first time as part of Seattle’s

Arts North Studio Tour
October 12th and 13th, 10 AM – 5 PM
Studio 10 | Modern Glaze
14800 Westminster Way, Shoreline, WA 98133

Visit 10 North Seattle Studios in one weekend, and see a wide range of beautiful art, glass, jewelry and ceramics from some of Seattle’s best artists. Click these links to download the Studio Brochure or Map.

I will have a wide selection of prints, framed and unframed, as well as mixed media work on Venetian Plaster. Laura will be showing her highly collectable ceramic ware and photographic works. We are both photo based artists, but we have taken the medium in very different directions. I love the opportunity for our work to be shown together, and look forward to meeting new friends and old.

Instagram post 2194492950900180841_1682569995 A large travel piece, 24x36, for the discriminating trucking company that sees the beauty in grime. I can’t seem to get over trucks. I remember shouting out to them on road trips when I was 6. My mother had married a new man who was a gambler, and they would drive all night to Las Vegas. For me, day dreaming in the back seat, the trucks made it all worthwhile.
Instagram post 2193017376281226308_1682569995 The Travelers Suite of 8 new prints is in my shop today, first link in bio. Postcards from the edge, between stillness and motion. This one is called “The Journey Through.” 16x12” image on a 22x17 sheet of German Etching rag paper.
Instagram post 2191258353097851975_1682569995 Please Come Back Before I Forget You. (Coast Starlight Journey)
Instagram post 2190321261471738946_1682569995 Do you have a movie landscape in your mind where you live part of the time? I live in #mccabeandmrsmiller which is almost entirely without music and filmed in opium smoke and snow. Color is not necessary to tell some stories, the ones you can’t forget and relive before you wake in the morning. The House by the River, limited edition print, 16x20”. From the new #traveler series.
Instagram post 2189550942678971612_1682569995 I’m working on travel pieces today. The glimpse and the overlay, from a trove of photos taken on a recent trip on the #CoastStarlight. A double exposure is not just a trick. Not an “edit“. It is an acknowledgment that we are never in just one place in time. You can ask yourself questions like, is the composition balanced? Or you can ask the existential version: 1) When is a splatter a flight of birds? 2) When is a blur a memory? 3) When is a memory a lie? 4) When is a lie the truth? 12.5x16” on 17x22” limited edition print on German Etching.
Instagram post 2188163148543116808_1682569995 Silver Train Vista, limited edition print 1/5 , 7”x10” in a 12 x16 frame. A quiet piece glimpsed from the #StarlightExpress. This is part of a series of affordable art prints that I sell framed and unframed. I haven’t worked out packaging and shipping yet, but if purchased locally in Seattle and picked up from my studio the framed piece is $150, unframed is $110. These will only exist as one very limited edition in one size.
