Opening Reception - July Show

What to do, early on a Saturday evening on Saturna? Head for a Gallery Opening, of course.

Yesterday's ArtSaturna Opening was fun, it was hot, it was well-attended! Close to 60 people poured into the new Gallery space at the Saturna Point Store, to discover the work by Saturna Artists, and to schmooze... Many of the artists were present, and ready to answer questions about their work.

So, the next time you are at the Pub, or the store, or in line - waiting for the ferry - please come in, don't be shy!

Coastal Green


Coastal Green is a small hanging with many shades of emerald and jade green layers quilted together with free motion and machine embroidery. The cedar trees are created entirely with stitching or "thread painting". Shiva paint sticks and Lumiere metallic paints are used to highlight design elements. Small touches of red are used as a complementary contrast to the green tones. -- Donna-Fay Digance
