Art in an Aqua Tone
The display windows of the Blue Whole Gallery will showcase the diversity and varied approaches by two fine artists, Carol Janda and Stacey Martin-Lopez during First Friday Art Walk on May 3, 2019 from 5 to 8 pm in Sequim, Washington.
Carol, a well known teacher and artist, will display paintings of waterscapes as well as 3-dimensional clay works reflecting a touch of nature. While Stacey will exhibit works with graphite which incorporate vibrant colors of gouache, an opaque water color, that will include aqua tones. Meet both artists who will gladly share their inspirations with you at the Gallery on First Friday or you can see their display throughout the month of May.
Carol Janda's paintings depict the unique beauty of the Olympic Peninsula with views of mountains, waterfalls, seascapes and people enjoying nature at its best. Her two-dimensional works along with 3-dimensional stoneware pottery of statues and vessels with elements of nature will demonstrate her multi-directional approach to art and reveal what can be captured and recreated. Examples of her work follow.
Stacey Martin-Lopez will be exhibiting paintings reflecting her long-standing expertise in gouache allowing her to present subject matter influenced by the Pacific Northwest and by visions from a beautiful mind. Much of her inspiration comes from having grown up with a father and twin sister who were artists in their own right. Using graphite, and experimenting with a mixture of water color and gouache she will display images that have inspired her and revealed her interests and views. Examples follow.
