Sherry Markovitz - Bellevue Arts Museum

Having arrived at the Bellevue Arts Museum Art Show a day early I was hoping to get some work done. Unfortunately none of the artists had arrived and the ones that had were too busy to talk. So, I ventured to the Museum and was delighted with the show. I may even have been inspired not to ever go big game hunting as every one of these wall mounts was extremely exquisite and much more exotic then any Alaskan moose or caribou

Pedro Lynch - At Ease - Warren G. Magnuson Park

This public art installation at the entrance of the park upon daytime viewing is a bit like expensive graffiti. However upon my first viewing at night I was surprisingly delighted with the additional feature. A beautiful and thoughtful piece. Thank you Pedro for making my late nights at the office a little more fun.

Il' fait en complait

It may be hard to make out. But on that red barn is a mural of five beluga whales, 8 ft by 20 ft from 1992 last seen on Whidbey Island.  It is heavenly in disguise and was commissioned by my dear mother. 

It was lost from the family but then found it's way home at Bailey's corner.  For those marine art lovers this is a lost treasure waiting to be found.
