PORT LUDLOW — The Port Ludlow Art Leagues’s artist of the month is Larry Davidson and its jeweler of the month is Katie Jablonski.
Their work will be on view during this month at the Sound Community Bank at the corner of Oak Bay Road and Osprey Ridge Drive in Port Ludlow and online at www.portludlowart.org.
Jablonski’s jewelry also can be seen at the Port Ludlow Art Gallery next to the bank from noon to 4 p.m. Thursday and Friday.
Davidson, an architect, creates his paintings, in part, by using a multitude of digital brushes and other tools that enable him to paint directly into a digital image.
Other areas of the painting are composed of extractions of his photographs and watercolor. Images are then printed on metal, high luster art paper, or canvas and framed to present the final painting.
His art exhibit is meant to create a particular mood, ambiance, and “sense of place” that embraces the colors of October, offering a sense of shelter from the winter to come,he said.
Jablonski is inspired by nature. She works with a variety of precious and semi-precious minerals and gems from raw opals to crystals.
Silver, copper, and bronze is casted using the lost wax process in a kiln and sometimes included in her wire wrapping and beading.
Enamels are layered to create earrings, pins, and uniquely-inspired objects of art. Repousse is used to bring depth, textures, and details.
The league does not plan a group show this month.
The Business Side of Art will be the program of the Port Ludlow Art League meeting at 1 p.m. Oct. 19.
A panel discussion will deal with how to navigate the business of selling art on the Olympic Peninsula and beyond.
The meeting will be at the Bay Club at 120 Spinnaker Place in Port Ludlow.
Guests are welcome to attend for $5 fee.
