620 Commercial Ave., Burton Jewelers
Burton Jewelers is proud to exhibit the original artwork of the late Rebecca Hyland of Anacortes. Hyland was well known for her colorful paintings and her estate is offering special pieces for sale, both framed and unframed at the Burton Gallery. Portions of the proceeds will be donated to charity. We will have the August birthstone as our spotlight this month. Refreshments and hors d’oeuvres will be served.
604 Commercial Ave., The Good Stuff Arts
The Good Stuff Arts Gallery presents ‘WATER REFLECTIONS” - a tribute to the beauty of the NW sky & water. Our gallery artists have painted their favorite water reflections in subtle to bold oils, watercolors, pastels, acrylic, mixed media, pen & ink, textile and more. Styles from detailed naturalistic to mind-engaging fantasy & abstract. Also new jewelry by Darlene Klister who specializes in wire wrapping around pieces of Guemes Island sea glass and her copper & bronze metal pieces; semi-precious stones in copper/silver rings wire wrapped to fit all sizes by Julie Ginsburg; and sterling silver, Alaskan influenced necklace & earrings by Berthiel Evens.
602 Commercial Ave., Red Salon Aveda
Red Salon Aveda is excited to welcome local Artist Dee Doyle. Her daily Art Journey begins with “What if?” Seeking, risking, and making art, and sharing joys, challenges, successes and lessons learned. She paints with acrylics, watercolors, wax and mixed media. Doyle would say she doesn't have a specific “style”, but she is influenced by Impressionists and Expressionists who are a bit edgy.
520 Commercial Ave., Pelican Bay Bookstore & Coffee Shop
The bookstore welcomes sculptor, Allen Moe and his exhibition of castings. The castings can be thought of as photographs in that he goes into the field, makes a negative of ground surfaces using silicone or plaster. Then back at the studio he makes a positive cast in cement. Be sure to arrive early and enjoy our popular Rosemary Sea Salt Roll bites while they last.
420 Commercial Ave., Scott Milo Gallery
The gallery welcomes back Bellingham artist, Jody Bergsma. Bergsma brings her latest style of paintings with floral and birds using acrylic mixed media and metallic leaf. She also has her coordinating merchandise of mugs, coasters and small matted prints. Also showing are oil paintings from Whidbey Island artist, Sandy Byers; mixed media paintings and handmade jewelry from Monica Gewurz of British Columbia; landscape pastels by Alejandra Gos of Bothell and the ever-popular photo encaustics on panel by Kathy Hastings of Camano Island.
419 Commercial Ave., The Majestic Inn and Spa
We welcome local oil painter, Suzanne Powers to the Majestic Inn. With an impressionistic approach, whether plein air or in the studio, Powers finds painting to be a process of exploration and discovery. The original oil paintings are a personal response to the inspiration that comes from nature, its power and fragility.
