Sculptural and Pictorial Artworks Revealing Individual Creativity
On First Friday, May 6th, 2016 the Blue Whole Gallery will feature two artists who reflect sculptural and pictorial representations of the world around them. Both artists approach their work differently due to the materials they use and yet they express their individuality in the works they create. David Tinsley, a driftwood artist of exceptional skill is able to interpret emotions and actions into his sculptural work. Margo Hankel a watercolor artist, reveals views of everyday scenes, portraits and landscapes that are soft and delicate. Their works will be on display at the Blue Whole Gallery on May 6th, from 5 to 8pm and throughout the month.

| David Tinsley |
David is a driftwood artist on a different level, he transforms pieces of driftwood into sculptural forms that express emotions or an interpretation that his mind has visualized in a three-dimensional form. The artist selects each piece of driftwood for its suggestive shape and integrates it into a cohesive sculptural image showing the viewer a new and often surprising emotion. The following examples reveal his creativity.
 |
| "Ocean Glider" |
 |
| "Silent Sobs" |
David Tinsley's love of the sea has found him chasing the waves as a surfer. This internal love of the ocean translates itself into sculptural themes using the gifts of driftwood from the Pacific Northwest Coastline. Such a love affair is seen below:
 |
| "Tubed" |
 |
| "One With The Ocean" |
 |
| "The Struggle Within" |
David's expressive sculptured pieces reveal his personal and emotional approach and they have found their way into the Blue Whole Gallery. To view these visit the Gallery and meet the artist and his work on First Friday May 6th from 5 to 8 pm and throughout the month.

| Margo Hankel |
Margo uses watercolor as her medium of expression to capture the beauty of life in places, persons and nature. Her paintings reflect a lifetime goal in appreciating the value of life and how finite time can be while capturing it at that very moment with simplicity and insight. The following examples give us a view into her world.
 |
| "Live Oak" |
 |
| "Iris" |
Margo shows how it is important to do what you love. Her subject matter focuses on revealing personal feelings and emotions. The latter is particularly true in her portraits below.
 |
| "Christman Kids" |
 |
| "Mr. John Elliot" |
Watercolor is an art medium that requires great skill, practice and persistence to master its elements. Margo uses it to capture the beauty of life that surrounds her. Her subject matter varies from everyday scenes to the wildlife that share and live within our surroundings on the North Olympic Peninsula.

| "Paella" |
These selections of the art work by Margo Hankel give the viewer an open window into everyday life of a world that we often take for granted. The times we are living in should be shared and so don't let this chance go by. Visit the Blue Whole Gallery and be inspired by meeting the artist and her work featured on First Friday, May 6 from 5 to 8pm and throughout the month.
