Seattles' Roq La Rue has stellar art hanging right now. First, a mini show of Femke Hiemstra's "Heatwave" series of exquisite drawings and digitally-colored prints. Above, "Skinny Dipping" (graphite on paper, 7" x 7"), which my lovely wife just purchased for me as a birthday gift. Link to Hiemstra exhibition

And the main exhibition features the incredible talents of Stella Hultberg, Amy Sol, and Oksana Badrak. Seen here, from left to right, Hultberg's "Sometimes" (oil and ink on tea-stained paper, 12" x 16"); Sol's "Music of Turtles" (acrylic on wood, 8" x 10"); Badrak's "Lost #3" (giclee print, 8" x 10").

    BB posts about Roq La Rue every month. I live in Seattle, and there are alot of other creative things going on worthy of mention. It seems Roq La Ruie are getting friendly attention…or maybe this is part of their advertising deal? :)

    On the one hand I wish I lived near Roq La Rue so I could see all the great shows they hang there. On the other hand I’d be spending way too much money on original art I have no place to hang.

    Actually, there is no “deal.” We gave Roq La Rue a free banner because we love the gallery. Kirsten Anderson consistently curates incredible shows there.

    I’m sure the place is stellar, but is it worth a mention that they advertise here? (unless it’s random. But I’ve seen a lot of their banner ads at BB)
