Walking Map for June 9 Art Walk!


Featured Q2 Artist! Congratulations to Sonya Rupnick, @sonyaseattle, whose charming, cheeky slice-of-life animal portrait Nice Legs graces the new poster and walking maps. Sonya is represented in West Seattle by Fogue Gallery. See her work in April, May and June, 2022, during business hours and on Second Thursdays. 

Some thoughts from Sonya!

“These paintings are little stories from a world where animals live a cozy, rural life, but one which is also sometimes unexpected and surprising. I try to portray them as living real, interesting lives, which we only see a portion of in each vignette. Each one has its own secret backstory. I want you, the viewer, to make up your own stories about them, and I want you to see yourself or people you know in them.”

Seattle Dive Tours

Billy Ball INDOORS AND RECEPTION 5pm – 8pm

Just a dude with a camera.  My underwater photography began while working as a dive guide and instructor on the Big Island of Hawaii. After a flood of my compact camera housing I made the jump to a DSLR system. With a few mentors and a ton of online research I began to develop my style. Beginning with a trip to Bali, I realized my love of shooting macro critters. I am able to draw on my experience as a dive guide/spotter to help me find my subjects. Over time my interests have expanded into CFWA and large animals. My passion for teaching people to dive has evolved into a passion to teach underwater photography. I believe very strong fundamental diving skills go hand in hand with photography. By working on both types of skills simultaneously my students are able to evolve their photography rapidly and reduce their impact on the underwater world.

Maggie Sharar INDOORS SHOW + RECEPTION 5pm-9pm

Infinite Rebirth

A channel to the divine. A mother. A healer. A creator. This is Maggie Sharar. Her watercolor paintings illustrate lost and found souls. They invite you into a healing journey. A woman’s truth. Her feminine portraits and forms embody sovereignty and the juicy experience of being human. Each piece holds the energy of trauma, love, magic, healing, and connection. But most of all Maggie’s work is a kinetic way to release energy. To feel the god particle and hold it in her hands. Maggie’s creative journey began long ago in the land of sand and sun. Florida. There she grew up on the nature coast soaking in the sights and sounds of cicadas, alligators, moccasins, and manatees. She attended Savannah College of Art and design in 2004. In 2007 the artist found herself in the Orlando area, there she got her feet wet showing in over 20 exhibitions with a series called The Birds. In 2010 the artist slowed down creatively and turned towards motherhood. When Maggie’s daughter was 6 months old her young family made their way west to Seattle. In 2017 her world shifted when she became a single Mother of two children and began her road to recovery from years of abuse. It was then she poured her heart back into her paintings. These works illuminate a lust to let go. To leave the physical body and find the roots of the subconscious. And then, to come home to the body and heal.
Presently Maggie is selling her art work full time and thriving. She is also teaching both technical watercolor classes and energetic healing watercolor classes to guide her students through the tangible and spiritual.

Maggie will be selling 8.5 x 11 prints and coffee mugs the night of the Art Walk for $30.

John’s palette is whatever is close by. The subjects are skateboarding tigers, tofu, disaffected cafe dwellers, the chilly masses at the market, houseplants etc. Like life, his art can be ridiculous, melancholy, psychedelic, whimsical and repetitive… And fraught with themes of prescriptions to be picked up, playdates to schedule, therapists to meet.  Take a look around, you’ll get it. He also loves hanging out with his wife and two kids and making pizza.

MEET THE ARTIST:

T. Frick Art – paintings
T. Frick is a self-taught artist and female entrepreneur. She is a licensed Landscape Architect with a Bachelor’s of Science from the University of Wisconsin – Madison. Art has always been a key part of T’s life, even as a young child. But it was her training in the architectural field that advanced her drafting, sketching, and painting style. Growing up, T. could be found wandering the backwoods with one of her resident pups or when indoors, she occupied her time with drawing, painting, or other creative hobbies. Her love of nature and the outdoors led to a career in design. When not working, you’ll typically find her creating — colors, shapes, textures, and movement creatively come to mind, manifesting into abstract, typically landscape, visions. T. will tell you she dreams in trees. No painting is ever planned. She begins with freedom of expression and movement, marking making with no preset destination. Sessions in, a painting will begin to reveal itself and navigate towards its intended vision. T. is currently working in oil and cold wax, acrylic, and mixed media in an abstract, expressive style. Her paintings are typically smaller in size with larger works on the horizon. Commissions at any scale are available upon request. Check out T’s website and join her on an artistic journey through her diverse array of artwork!

Cebron Kyle Bradford III INDOOR SHOW 4pm-7pm

Cebron “Kyle” Bradford III, is transplant to the PNW from the desert town of Bakersfield, CA. Artistically he’s found inspiration from nature and the brilliance of a good sunset on a beach, with a splash of a rebellious spirit. Since 5 years of age he’s regularly gotten in trouble for touching art displays and “not following clear instructions”. Artistically it’s translated into creating tactile art breaking the traditional instructions of art being observed at a distance rather than experienced up-close. The texture in the paintings captures movement, entices with color, and invites touch to experience the raised ridges and dramatic landscapes created with each layer of paint.*Please only touch paintings you have purchased*

“I remember doing a chalk drawing for an art fair in High School, and being asked to blend the colors. But I saw the rebellious beauty in them standing alone and overlapping. There’s something rebellious about boldly laying the colors and letting people mentally blend and make the connections themselves. It’s a little like life, we all are going to have different colors (building blocks/ talents/ experiences) and those aren’t going to blend with the next person; but there’s beauty observing how these differences interact in close proximity.”

She has over a decade of professional art experience including participating in and curating exhibits, public art projects, murals, and corporate paint events.  She is also the founder of Crimson Canvas Arts, a company that mentors budding artists and is present in more than ten schools on the Eastside. She has recently been featured in the Seattle Times and in PublicDisplay.ART, a One Reel publication showcasing local artists. Of her work, Priyanka says: The complexity and boldness of abstract art has always spoken to me. My work is a blend of expressionism and impressionism. I work with acrylic paints with texture and surface being an important aspect of my work. I work in a simple and spontaneous way with palette knives, moving back and forth loosely across the painting surface. I use vibrant colors that push and pull each other to completion. I paint florals because they reinvigorate Hope, the fundamental belief for human existence. It is an expression of all that is different while unifying this diversity through a common denominator of human feelings.  Plus, they are comforting, healing and bring smiles.

Pam Hemmerling INDOORS + RECEPTION 5pm-9pm

Becoming an artist later in life and without formal training, I have found that the creative journey surprises and brings joy in unexpected ways. I primarily paint figures, portraits, and abstracts using acrylic paint but rarely start on a smooth canvas. To build up layers and texture I use vintage book paper, fabric, and other ephemera. Living in West Seattle for the past 25 years I continue to be inspired by the ordinary beauty found in each day. Through my art, I hope to touch the viewer in a meaningful way, forming a connection by sharing a compelling narrative of vulnerability and strength.

About the Artists Please note: artists will not be present as exhibit is business hours only.

Glenda Weibel

Glenda is a watercolor artist who has lived in West Seattle for over 20 years. She loves the immediacy and fluidity of watercolor, but has recently been exploring ways to free watercolor paintings from being framed behind glass. Several of the pieces in this show are done on archival tissue paper and mounted on a canvas and finished with varnish. This technique maintains the freshness of watercolor, yet sets it free from glass. She also enjoys using traditional watercolor paper and some of those are also in the show.

Laurel Donkervoet

Laurel Donkervoet is a Washington native, born and raised in Puyallup. She moved to Seattle to attend school at Seattle Pacific University seventeen years ago to study apparel design and has been here ever since. She’s lived in West Seattle for the last ten years with her husband and three children where she spends her free time exploring the beautiful world of watercolor painting.
