🎨🌸🍪 Spring Art & Bloom Show

We had a wonderful Last Thursday event last week. We saw lots of new faces come through the space and it was a glorious night. I feel absolutely lucky and grateful to have such an amazing group of women who are all so creative, talented and supportive of each other collaborate on such a fun event. We had a blast and we hope you all join us the next time we can all get together. We’re thinking September’s Last Thursday (indoor) event, so put it on your calendar.

Thank you:

Joanne is a baker and local business owner who on a recent trip to Zambia, was humbly inspired by the strength and character of the women providing for their families, through small businesses. She is sharing her love of baking with her favorite cookie, the Hippie Cookie. She intends to use her profits to help fund education programs in outer villages in Zambia as well as the underserved in her local community.

Spotlight Artist: Marieke Mertz

Marieke was born and raised in the Netherlands, but has lived in Portland for many years. She feels fortunate to live in an area surrounded by such inspiring beauty in nature. Her art creates a deep connection with hummingbirds, wildlife and nature. She enjoys working in a contemporary style, using layering techniques to create depth and spontaneous brushstrokes to convey movement.

While our world can be so challenging and complicated, her colorful art celebrates the simple joys and radiates positive energy.

Last Thursday on Alberta Street
May 29th, 6-9pm

Spotlight Artist: Robin Kerr!

Robin is an accidental immigrant; now a New Zealander-American happily living in Portland.

Her art reflects her immigrant perspective; living in a permanent observational limbo. There is always some sort of mash up; large bold shapes and tiny scribbly lines, blocks of color and specks of contrast, clean edges and smudged overlays. The colors and textures and patterns in her work are often inspired by what she has seen by simply getting outside in some way, every single day.

Spotlight Artist: Jennifer Foran!

Jennifer’s art reflects her love of nature. She draws inspiration from the nature that surrounds her. When people see her art she wants them to discover the cycles within nature; the soft-spoken reminder that everything is connected; a balance of give and take.

Check out her beautiful paintings. Get lost in their tiny exquisite lines, expansive outer space and ethereal energy. Her backyard Habitat Certified garden is her constant source of inspiration. Most of the plants she paints are native to the Portland area.

This newly elected government is already affecting small businesses! 😡

This guest canceled the other day and allowed me to post this message without using their name. I respect their stance!
