Fredericka Foster J-35 Pushing Her Dead Calf After a photo by Ken Balcomb
Alan Honick contributed a beautiful photograph of his collection of moon snails. His statement described walks on the beach, and how the number of shells found by his friend decreased and eventually ended in the last fifteen years. The shells were beautiful, arranged in the spiral as they grow… or dwindle. The story was simple, and haunted me.

…these photography film strips of landscapes, destroyed:
Chris Harvey Orca Oil on tar paper
and this Salish narrative made with stamps collected around the nation, which evidently is an artistic genre called “Philately.” (wow!)
Deborah Baker Emergent Properties: Vellula, Lorentz, Mussel Acrylic and oil on panel
Alex Walker took a break from his painting practice to sketch a gulping salmon, which by the title was giving him chase. Well done. Glad you survived. This fish caught you a $50 gift certificate at the League.
Big thanks to all the participating artists. We couldn’t have done it without you.

Carlos San Millan is one of my favorite painters. The glow and the chorus of sounds he can pull from a relaxed and informal series of brush strokes is breathtaking. I wrote Carlos and told him about the League, and he agreed to fly here to meet us. The League is thrilled to host Carlos …
