Showing through July 31st

Babs Fulton has been an artist her entire life. Painting, Photography, Writing, Programming, PowerPoint...and the list goes on...

Babs is also a geek and proud of it. She lives a double life between working as a nerdy white collar professional and coming home to be a nerdy artist.

Babs acrylic paintings display a love of modern/pop combined with science, Seattle architecture, math, high tech, english slang, and of course my personal outlook applied to the subject at hand. Each painting name is also part of her art.

Nalisha Rangel at Shakti Vinyasa Yoga

7/18/2017

Artist: Nalisha Rangel / www.artbynalisha.com
Venue: Shakti Vinyasa Yoga / 2238 NW Market St
Event: July 20th 6pm - 9pm
Showing through August 16th

Nalisha called the Sonoran desert home for 3 decades before migrating north to the PacNW. Vibrant, saturated sunsets inspired her palette as did dance and patterns found in nature. Since the age of 6, Nalisha been a ballet, tap and jazz dancer and, since moving to Seattle 10 years ago, fell in love with modern dance. The catapulting energy of modern dance inspired her art heavily as she tries to convey a sense of movement in her compositions.

Her latest collection consists of intensely bright colors and meditative patterns. It’s an “ode to a peaceful escape”. Nalisha is more interested to hear what others interpret from her work instead of talking your ear off about it. She believes whole-heartedly that art is completely subjective, “It’s meant to evoke a raw response, not try to see something I guide you to see; it’s emotional and that’s what I feel is most important.”

Courtney Huston is an illustrator who strives to make fantastical narratives while exploring her own domestic story.

These materials allow her to play with the juxtaposition of hard geometric lines and watercolor washes.
