Fire of the Heart Gallery
Located at the historic Greenbank Farm on Whidbey Island.. "The gallery is a retail space for my work which includes painting, mixed media artwork, sculptures made out of a variety of materials, and hand made gifts. My large paintings are vibrantly colorful and have calming, meditative compositions. They reflect a process of improvisational painting where I work with what's on the canvas as it evolves to completion. I look at what the piece needs, in the moment, which creates an opening to what the piece will become. I keep adding marks, colors, and layers until I know the painting is done and ready to hang on the wall." Becca Heavrin 765 Wonn Rd. #C101, Greenbank, WA 98253 www.fireoftheheartgallery.com |

Steph Mader
Glass Particle Landscapes Steph Mader's work is inspired by her sense of connection, as a living being, to the natural world. She creates glass landscapes of quiet places, from nothing but tiny particles of colored glass. Glass transformed by light is the perfect material for capturing the light and air of broad, open places. Each landscape is constructed layer by layer: the distant hills; the planes of the middle ground; the details in the foreground, and then fired in the kiln. http://www.stephmader.com/ |
