Wintergreen Townhomes

This large mosaic sign will greet the residents to the new Wintergreen Townhomes on Bainbridge Island, WA. This project was a uniquely-funded program through the city's art commission, AHB, which used a small portion of public funds to bring arts to private spaces.

Bainbridge Island map #1

I was reached by the builder's of Wintergreen Townhomes on Bainbridge Island, WA. to create a mosaic map of the island. This would be 1 of 2 maps that will be installed at their new location to give residents a visual idea of the island's points-of-interest. It was fun to build the content pieces using fused glass, and it has that old map-y look.

Quest Center Sign

I was asked by this Portland-area clinic to update their sign at their new building. I decided to use the existing 3 x 6 foot plexiglass sign, and surround it with colorful, burnt-wood pieces to make for an exciting entrance. I studied the Japanese technique of Shou-sugi-ban, which burns wood and leaves it dark. I sanded it back further and was able to add the wonderful wood-stain.

This street fish will be in Florence OR. for 2 years as part of the Art Exposed Public Art installation from Sept '22-'24. The sculpture is available for purchase as well through the City of Florence.
