NEW garden Art AreaCommercial Ave, between 2nd and 3rd streets

Separated from the rest of the booth artisans by the food court, this area consists of artwork for outdoor display. Work includes fountains, etched rock, forged and fabricated metal and whimsical pieces. With more room for display, it’s easier to get an image of how this artwork can fit in the great outdoors.

The Festival offers up to $10,500 in award mon-ey to artists participating in the Arts at the Port. This includes $2,500 for both 2D and 3D Awards, $4,000 for the Anacortes Collects Public Art Pur-chase Award, and two sponsored awards — the Peoples Bank Peoples Choice Award chosen by Festival attendees and the T Bailey Corporate Award.

Arts at the Port kicks off with the Community Opening event on Friday, July 30 from 5:30–8 p.m. with a $15 ticket price at the door. This is the first opportunity to view and purchase artwork from the Arts at the Port Exhibition. The event includes appetizers from Bellissima, Gere-A-Deli and Café Adrift, chocolates and a no-host wine bar. The evening will also honor mural artist Bill Mitchell, our 2010 Anacortes Patron of the Arts.

Arts at the Port, located at the north end of Anacortes on the waterfront, carries on the tradition of showcasing and selling Northwest fine art. This unique marine setting in the Port warehouse combines a view of the water and the sound of ebbing and flowing tides with art-work from some of the region’s premier artists. Arts at the Port consists of three distinct exhibits – “NEXT” Juried Open Exhibition, John L. Scott Focus Gallery and Youth Art Exhibit, coordinated by Anacortes Community & Youth Arts.

craiG Dunstan-McGrail | BellinghamPhotographyDunston-McGrail’s abstract photos explore the endless potential of painting with light using a camera, a computer and ink on paper.

JiM FarranD | ShorelinePaintingFarrand employs techniques such as pouring, spraying and glazing to create intense color saturation in his paintings, challenging the viewer to rethink the medium of watercolor.

roBert e. GiGliotti | BellinghamSculptureGigliotti approaches sculpture from two dif-ferent perspectives — to make each piece interesting on a purely visual level and to use symbolism to challenge the viewer’s para-digms about relationships with each other, the environment and the universe.

kathryn Glowen | ArlingtonMixed MediaGlowen quite literally incorporates the past into her work, creating a visual journey of memory, place and time. Her Festival entry uses repurposed silk ties and acrylic on canvas.

karen hackenBerG | Port TownsendPaintingSurveying the boundary between man and living nature, Hackenberg’s series of gouache paintings present an ironic taxonomy of post-consumer creatures of the sea, pushing the boundary between man and living nature.

JeFFrey hanks | Lopez IslandCeramicsHanks’ wheel-thrown ceramic vessels express the range from the pure function of the classic amphora form to its highly stylized sculptural shape.

Marius hiBBarD | AnacortesPhotographyHibbard’s layered photographs capture both the natural landscape and the beauty of birds in flight.

rick holst | EdmondsCeramicsHolst’s ceramic pieces range from functional to sculptural, incorporating unique shapes and glazes to express his point of view. toDD horton | BowPaintingHorton’s work has an element of surprise cre-ated by dragging a squeegee across wet oil paint and erasing pencil lines, producing paintings that express both tension and tran-quility, bringing the viewer into the world of nature.

kelly kelloGG | Oak HarborPhotographyKellogg uses a variety of formats and tech-niques in his photography, creating results that are sometimes realistic, sometimes impres-sionistic or surreal.

Dayton kniPher | TacomaPhotographyKnipher’s abstract photographs are intended to surprise and delight while revealing the humorous, the subtle and the unexpected in nature and human experience.

Gary leake | CoupevilleWoodworkingUsing antique woodworking tools, traditional techniques and one-of-a-kind pieces of timber, Leake creates unique contemporary and func-tional pieces of furniture.

katherine lewis | Mount VernonBasketryLewis’ craft ranges from growing 60 varieties of willow on her family farm to using this ma-terial to create beautiful and functional tradi-tional baskets.

carol Milne | SeattleGlassMilne sees her glass “knitted” work as a meta-phor for social structure: individual strands becoming part of a larger structure that has both fragility and strength.

natalie niBlack | Mount VernonPaintingNiblack’s paintings are emotional in nature, using elements of landscape with dream-like imagery to visually impact the viewer.

PereGrine o’GorMley | LaConner SculptureO’Gormley began carving as a child and had his first gallery show at age 14. He seeks to harness the beauty of the natural forms as a catalyst for communi-cation.

John L. Scott

The JOhN l. sCOTT FOCus GAllerY focuses on the work of two outstanding regional artists — ceramic artist Larry Richmond from Belling-ham and fiber artist Sally Sellers from Vancouver, Wash.

lArry richMond creates hand thrown and carved ceramic pieces. His intricately patterned pots and bowls reflect influences of Northern California Indian bas-kets. He spent 25 years working and teach-ing on the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation. His wife, Peggy Kondo, also an artist, collab-orates with needleworked basketry compo-nents incorporated into some of his work.


sAlly sellers has been a textile artist since 1989. Her work embraces repetition with intentional and controlled variations. She uses embellishments, stripes and grids to add visual interest and lead the viewer into her work. Sellers has been juried into major textile exhibi-tions and her work is included in more than 40 public collections.

For the first time, the

Festival is honoring

two individuals as

Volunteer(s) of the Year. They

are husband and wife team,

Terry and Lil Green. Lil’s ex-

pertise is in the area of hospi-

tality as she helps with lunch

delivery for booth artisans,

serves as a docent at the Port

and assists with checkout.

Terry, who also served on the

Festival board for a number of

years, gravitates more toward

production by marking streets

for setup, making Festival re-

pairs and assisting in the hard

work of putting up and closing

down the Festival.

APoTA – Bill MitchellThe Anacortes Arts Festival is pleased to honor art-

ist Bill Mitchell as the 2010 Anacortes Patron of the

Arts. One need only drive into Anacortes to see the

artistic influence of Bill Mitchell in the community. In 1984,

Bill installed the first of his murals depicting histori-

cal people and events significant to Anacortes.

As of May 1, the number stands at 125. A map

locating the murals is available at the Cham-

ber Visitor’s Center.

A native to Anacortes, Bill started out

as an underground cartoonist and lat-

er wrote a history column for the An-

acortes American. Today he spends

his time painting into the wee hours

and working with a crew of four on

his many projects. He plans to wrap

up the Anacortes Mural Project early

in 2011. Despite the challenge of

being confined to

a wheelchair (and

familiar motorized

cart), Bill considers

himself “a lucky

guy.” There is no

argument that his

grit, tenacity and

talent have made a

significant impact

on the arts in Ana-

cortes.
