Sara Swink, creator of quirky ceramic figures, is now one of the great artist showing at the 9th Street Gallery! We would really love for you to come an experience Sara's gift of sculpture, humor, and insight--her work is a must see.

Beaded Beads

Lisa Gastelum makes her exquisite jewelry by weaving tiny beads into larger spheres which have up to 400 individual beads in them. Her pieces also include contemporary silver work and designs, making each piece a wearable work of art. Come see the rich colors and textures in her earrings, bracelets, and necklaces.

McCoy Opening

Here are a few shots from the opening for Donna McCoy. A great time was had by all. Many thanks to all who showed up, Lumos Winery, the musicians (Eddie St. Claire and Evans Longshore), and Donna McCoy!

Katy was showing her fused glass work at the Seattle Flower and Garden Show this past weekend and while there she picked up a few new art pieces for the gallery. Here is a picture of one of the items she got, a rooster by Gunter Reimnitz. She also came back with some of his crows and ravens and an owl too.

I had the opportunity to join Donna yesterday as she went out to photograph tube worms in the lower intertidal zone. What a dynamic day with dark clouds, sunbursts, and great wave action. I can't wait to see some of her pictures, here are a couple of mine. I was not able to get any tube worm shots, just some of the waves and sky and a few anemones in some of the pools in the higher intertidal zone.
