Featuring work from Levi Hastings, an illustrator, artist and full-time graphic designer. From tattooed brawlers to wigged aristocrats, foreign street food to fashion footwear, my paintings reflect a lifelong obsession with high and low culture, tied together with fine lines and loose watercolor. Raised on farm in the mountains of Idaho, I grew up on a steady diet of dinosaurs, comic books and National Geographic, which developed my desire to draw everything.
I work primarily in ink and watercolor, with occasional forays into digital illustration and comics. Artist present.

Bherd Studios Gallery (Greenwood Collective)
8537 Greenwood Ave N, Suite 1
Look Up Here Book Signing Event celebrates 5 years of exhibits at Bherd Studios Gallery and features 33 Pacific NW artists who have been an integral part of the gallery and the Seattle art scene. “The range of media is extensive, from aerosol spray, acrylic, and oil paint, to stencil, pen & ink drawing, collage, sculpture, photography, encaustic, and street-based installation and performance. In just five years, Bherd has created a rich mixture of both lowbrow and highbrow that they bring together under the “urban and contemporary” umbrella. There’s also a fascinating hybrid or cyborg quality to much of the flora and fauna where organic shapes are grafted on to humans, machines, or robots. Nature also appears as a series of scientific specimens, and there’s a wonderful, collective take on the 19th century (Victorian period), with gothic horror, ornate frames, and steampunk paraphernalia.” David Francis (excerpted from Look Up Here, the book)

The characters represented are always confronted by sticky situations, yet they remain still and calm, finding their way through without a fuss. He is influenced by the idea of productivity through the use of apathy, and the hours upon hours of cartoons he watched as a kid. Artist present.

With no formal training, Ree Brown began drawing and painting in the 1970’s after his retirement. Encouraged by his friend, artist Jay Steensma, he began painting images of cats, birds and people on paper bags, cardboard and other scraps of paper. Steensma brought his work to the attention of a gallery in New York, and at the age of 86, Ree is still painting and showing. The Seattle Stranger calls his work, “Bright, sweet, and contentedly imperfect.” Ree himself describes his process: “Generally, I’m just more or less pleased to accept whatever happens. But sometimes, once in a while there are some that are exceptional.”. Artist present.

Artwork by JoEllen Wang. As a designer and artist, my life and my artwork is a balancing act between manmade and natural.

I first turned to painting as a means of appreciating and adding value to the latter. Artist present.

Artwork by Elissa Houghton.
About the artist: Elissa Houghton will be showing her recent paintings at In The Red this April, featuring work completed at Vermont Studio Center Residency and inspired by her recent travels to Tanzania and Egypt. She has shown her work extensively in North Carolina since her completing her BFA in 2004 and has many of her paintings in private collections across the country. Her first undergraduate exhibition sold every painting and she continues to sell her art, now on both coasts, since her recent move to Seattle. Drawn to contemporary abstract art as well as impressionism, she studied under NY- based abstract- expressionist artist, Cora Cohen and a small group of like-minded students. Her paintings are often an invitation for meditation, as she allows her art to whisper when so many must scream. Artists present.

Makeda Coffee: 153 N 78th Street
Artwork by Cheryl Olmstead. My medium is encaustic, which is the process of working with molten beeswax, dammar, resin and pigments. I apply beeswax to birch wood panels and fuse each application. Unlike other paints, encaustic is never wet or dry – it goes from a liquid to a solid state and back again in seconds. My pieces are not premeditated; they come as I paint. Inspired by color, texture and finished with fire, I feel inspired, understood and accepted by beeswax. Artist present.

Monkey Grind: 518 N 85th Street
Jess Rees is a Seattle based artist, designer, and all around creator whose work explores the delicate balance between the built and natural landscapes.

Join us for DIALOGUES WITH CLOTH by local fiber artist Peggy O'Heron in the Phinney Center Gallery in April 2012. This body of work began as a question, asking how she could capture the essence of relationships and the tone of conversations on the surface of a piece of cloth? She uses the simple marks of circles, squares and grid patterns all uniquely expressed by hand-made tools and hand-mixed colors. The marks and colors and an expanse of white silk take on identities and converse with one another. Artist present.

George Jennings began his life at a very early age immersed in the world of fine art receiving his very first art lessons from his grandfather, accomplished fine art painter the late John N. Robinson, in his hometown of Washington, D.C. When George was a child, his grandfather taught him the fundamentals of art. As a teenager, George spent a year at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, where he more advanced art instruction. George also credits the unlimited access to the Smithsonian galleries in his hometown (spending most of his time on the weekends there during his childhood) as a strong source of inspiration for his future art career. While growing up, George entered many regional art competitions, winning many awards competing against his peers at the time. After high school, George continued to paint and learn various art techniques through self-training and eventually began entering art contests as an adult, participating in group exhibits and having solo exhibitions. Now, George owns an art business that allows him to sell his works through various retail outlets and through his website online. Artist present.

Paul Knutzen is a local artist who grew up in Seattle and currently lives on Beacon Hill. After attending art school in Seattle, Paul spent over a decade in the video game industry designing and developing 3d environments. Much of his work reflects a strong affinity for architecture and the organic nature that can be seen in it.

“When I was a kid I was captivated with the Surrealists and how differently people could perceive the world. When I can’t come up with something to work on I’ll grab a camera and wander the different areas of the city, checking out buildings, trains, signage, and graffiti; the eclectic blend of people, dizzying color, and clamor of the streets is always inspiring.” Artist Present.

Bherd Studios Gallery (Greenwood Collective)
8537 Greenwood Ave N, Suite 1
Look Up Here celebrates 5 years of exhibits at Bherd Studios Gallery and features 33 Pacific NW artists who have been an integral part of the gallery and the Seattle art scene. In addition to the exhibit, a book under the same title features all 33 artists with a book signing event in April. The belief that the Seattle art scene is ripe for recognition has been Bherd's main mission to promote the promising talents of local urban and contemporary artists. While the gallery has shown well over a hundred different artists throughout the last 5 years, these 33 artists have been especially productive within their own careers and have been involved within the art community through creating events and supporting other artists along the way. Many of these artists have also participated in multiple projects, exhibits, and curated shows at the gallery, which truly shows their passion for their work and for their peers.

“The range of media is extensive, from aerosol spray, acrylic, and oil paint, to stencil, pen & ink drawing, collage, sculpture, photography, encaustic, and street-based installation and performance. In just five years, Bherd has created a rich mixture of both lowbrow and highbrow that they bring together under the “urban and contemporary” umbrella. There’s also a fascinating hybrid or cyborg quality to much of the flora and fauna where organic shapes are grafted on to humans, machines, or robots. Nature also appears as a series of scientific specimens, and there’s a wonderful, collective take on the 19th century (Victorian period), with gothic horror, ornate frames, and steampunk paraphernalia.” David Francis (excerpted from Look Up Here, the book)

Ceres: 7102 Greenwood Ave N
Suze has been drawing all her life. After an initial undergraduate degree, she pursued fifth-year studies in printmaking and ceramics at the University of Washington. Her professional career has included the graphic design of printed materials and interface designs for commercial and prototype software applications. In the last few years she has devoted herself to the watercolor medium.

She carries her paints into Washington’s Cascade Mountains, the Canadian Rockies, by the shores of the Columbia River, underneath the overhangs of barns, to the ledges of the Grand Canyon – in short, throughout the North American West.

From traditional landscape sketches –she calls them her love letters to the planet -- to large scale industrial subjects, she finds intense visual experience to capture everywhere she looks. Artist Present.

Gainsbourg: 8550 Greenwood Ave N
Photography by Greg Plumis. Greg Plumis is a long-time photographer with a newly found focus: portraits. Raised by a large family – practically a Greek and Serbian village – in Seattle’s Queen Anne neighborhood, Plumis has always valued company. This affinity for people naturally translates into his photography practice and allows him to capture subjects when they are comfortable, or naturally interacting with their environment. His love of socializing, of course, is only matched by his obsession with shooting film on old or toy cameras. If Greg had it his way, we’d never have progressed past the 4X5 camera – and our iPhones would only work with tripods. Be that as it may, for practical purposes, he splits his time between digital and film formats—sometimes even shooting Super 8, exercising his skill in both fine art and commercial projects. A soon to be graduate of the Commercial Photography program at Seattle Central’s Creative Academy, Plumis has experience shooting for editorial, corporate and nonprofit clients.
