Drawing inspiration from the natural world, Petra’s work captures the beauty, texture, and wonder of the outdoors. Visual, tactile, and captivating, her photography and handcrafted jewelry invite viewers to experience nature through an artistic lens.

BOOKS
Edmonds Bookshop, 111 Fifth Ave. South, Edmonds, www.edmondsbookshop.com
Book signing with local guidebook author Ken Wilcox at Edmonds Bookshop, from 2-4 p.m. August 16. Ken will be signing copies of his brand-new memoir, Boots on Fire: Mountain Adventures of a Restless Duffer. In his book, this lifelong trailster and guidebook author sums up five decades of adventuring across the wildlands of North America. Stories range from whimsical to inspiring, as he covers ground from Alaska to Mexico, across the deserts, into the red rock canyons, and aloft to some of the most beautiful summits of the Cascades, Olympics, Sierras, Rockies and Appalachian Mountains. Amid the storms, bears, rattlesnakes, gravity, thrills, disappointments and the usual hazards of having way too much fun, he reminds us to go lightly and do all we can to save our planet’s ever-shrinking wildlands.
Ken Wilcox is the author of Hiking Snohomish County, Hiking Whatcom County and Hiking Island County, among many other guidebooks. He lives with his wife Kris in Bellingham.
