This was our 2nd annual visit to the
Vashon Island Studio Art Tour and here's what we got!
On our first stop to Brian Brenno's glassblowing studio. Well, the glassblower was out to lunch but his wifey sold us her art (she uses his glass remnants to create mosaics). We were just going to get one fish, but decided to create a scene instead (sun, crab). The crab is my fave, and although the photo doesn't represent them too well, the orange and pinks in the glass are really beautiful.
[photos are missing, sorry]
Our second stop was to Dreamtime Studios, where we bought a fish (yeah, I know, I think this is the last bit of fish art we'll buy) painting last year, which hangs above our couch in our living room. The artist, Marcus Fellbaum (see post December 2006 for our 1st Vashon visit), remembered us! We were so amazed! He's a really cool guy and we're very impressed with his imaginative body of work. He brought out a piece Wes remembered from last year, but we decided not to get it (a lighthouse from Whidbey Island). Instead we chose the fish (again, I
know we have a lot of fish) triptych, which now resides in our dining room. We only have a few walls left in the house to fill, but I guarantee they'll be filled with sailboats or my sister's art! We've reached our fish quota :)
