Glass mosaics by Jo Braun and color photography by Corrina Miller will be paired at the Lynnwood Library Gallery starting today in an exhibit that runs through Jan. 3.
The two mediums complement each other as they come together in a vibrant blend of colors, imagery and detail.
Originally from South Dakota, Braun was inspired to pursue art by the prairie landscape. Braun uses manmade materials such as glass and cement to create mosaics that replicate the patterns formed in nature.
Miller’s photography reveals the richness of color and beauty found all around us. Her subject matter includes street scenes, natural landscapes and intimate portraits.
The Lynnwood Library Gallery is at 19200 44th Ave. W., Lynnwood. Hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fridays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and 1 to 5 p.m. Sundays.
“The Russian Connection”: Everett Community College’s Northlight Gallery is showing works by six American artists influenced by their study at a top Russian art academy.
Artists Mark Boyle, Cheryl King, Galina Milton, Irina Milton, Richard Tomkinson and Carey Waterworth spent four weeks studying at the Repin Fine Arts Academy in St. Petersburg, Russia. The show reflects their experiences in Russia and its influence on their work.
The Russian Academy of Fine Arts was founded in 1757 in St. Petersburg. The academy has dedicated its efforts to preserving the methods of traditional representation dating from the Renaissance.
The show runs through Dec. 8 in the gallery at Everett Community College, 2000 Tower St., north Everett. For more information, contact Sandra Lepper at 425-388-9445.
“The Art of Time”: The Arts of Snohomish Gallery and the Rotary Club of Snohomish present “The Art of Time” clock silent auction.
The exhibition features more than 30 artistically embellished clocks created by Arts of Snohomish members and local artists.
The silent auction is from 5 to 8 p.m. Dec. 2 at the gallery, 105 Cedar Ave., Snohomish. To add your name to the guest list, call 360-568-8648. Reservations are required.
From Monday through Dec. 1, clocks can be previewed in the windows of selected shops on First Street in downtown Snohomish. Clock Walk guides are available at the gallery.
The clock silent auction is in conjunction with the monthlong Home for the Holidays celebration, which is sponsored by the Snohomish Chamber of Commerce. During December, holiday activities will be happening throughout Snohomish’s downtown district. If you miss the auction, any unsold clocks will remain on display at the gallery and will be available to purchase through Jan. 2.
The auction is Arts of Snohomish’s only fundraiser for the year. The fundraiser allows the gallery to continue to present art-related events such as the student art show, the Boys &Girls Club art show, the Artists with Disabilities show and the All About Animals show, which benefits local animal rescue organizations.
