A Weekend of Sunshine and Art – Red Current at Roq La Rue

My favorite art gallery in Seattle, Roq La Rue, did a fabulous show this weekend called “Red Current” in which an all-female lineup of over thirty artists showed their work, including my collaboration partner on “Unexplained Fevers,” Deborah Scott. Here’s a pic of us with her piece, “Consumption of Innocence.”

One of the great things about the show was the unified feel despite a variety of methods and material…there was a hulking black pelican made of knitting cloth…abstract pieces that brought to mind moonscapes by Port Townsend artist Counsel Langley…forests…nudes…a gun holster made out of amethyst…the show is up til April 7, I’d go check it out before it’s gone!

In other news…our inspection is tomorrow. The sun was out yesterday, so we braved the toll on the 520 bridge and we walked in the Japanese gardens downtown and drove through the arboretum. Only a few things were blooming…camellias, a few rhodies, and some early cherry blossoms…spring is springing late this year for sure in the Northwest. By the way, if you’re looking for an old television, portable freestanding air conditioner, or old laptop with no hard drive, please let me know as we are cleaning house before the move this time! Make an offer!
