The Edmonds Arts Commission presents an exhibit of work by Mountlake Terrace artist Andrew Morrison in the EAC display case at the Frances Anderson Center, now through July 30.
Andrew Morrison states that his work is positive, powerful, traditional, modern, innovative and always on the cutting edge of creation. It reflects his Native American heritage. He is always willing to try new things, develop new ways and create new opportunities. Morrison feels he has an obligation and responsibility to use this God-given talent in a divine way to better himself, his family and community.
Morrison’s work has been featured at Artworks in Edmonds and at the Edmonds School District Administration Center. Morrison’s paintings and murals have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in galleries and universities throughout the Northwest and the United States.
