Autumn Colors
A change of season on the Olympic Peninsula is fast approaching and the Blue Whole Gallery will showcase two artists during the month of September that reflect those changes. Debbie Cain carves and paints natural gourds depicting animals, nature and portraits embellished with pine needles, gemstones and fiber coiling which enrich her creations. While Sally Cays is a realistic watercolor artist whose work reflects strong contrasts and colors depicting floral, still lifes, landscapes, portrait painting and wildlife. Their work will be presented at the Blue Whole Gallery on First Friday September 7, 2018 from 5 to 8 pm. and throughout the month.
