The mirror can serve as a metaphor for reflection, hindsight and distance. This show speaks to ways memory and scale can inevitably alter our perceptions of reality.
Gala Reception, February 11, 2026

Join me for the opening reception of a group show in the award-winning University Unitarian Church Chapel Gallery, designed and built by architect Paul Hayden Kirk in 1959.
About the theme: Transformation can occur in the blink of an eye or over a generation. There’s a before and after, and somewhere in the progression of time, alteration. The Transformative can bring discomfort or delight. It can trigger contemplation, discovery, new ways of being and engaging with the world. Not always subject to rationality, the transformative experience can lead to more questions than it answers, give rise to strong feelings and new perspectives, and inspire creativity.
Alki Arts is always a popular stop on the West Seattle Art Walk. Join artists, neighbors and art lovers for a night of engaging conversations, sips and nibbles!
Join me and two other group show artists for a demo. I am an intuitive printmaker working with a gelli plate, brayers and squirt bottles. See how the magic happens!
