This Saturday’s Ballard Art Walk will take over neighborhood businesses, galleries, studio, and restaurants from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. for a family-friendly showcase of the work of local artists.
This month, Ballard Works (2856 NW Market St) is hosting Relish Record Report featuring the works of photographers Pete Bustanoby, Michael Mooney, and Irv Mortensen. These artists have spent years developing their large bodies of work and have selected their personal favorites to showcase in this special event. The show features a variety of photographs from jazz divas to landscape and nature, the Intertribal Canoe Journey, architecture, and many things in between.
Annie’s Art and Frame (2212 NW Market St) is set to feature Targeted Therapy by Teresa Ettel in this month’s Art Walk event. Ettel is a self-taught artist who has explored a variety of mediums in her career including collage, which has become her focus and passion. Targeted Therapy is a visual journey of her experience of being diagnosed with breast cancer last year.
“The diagnosis, followed by chemotherapy, radiation, and surgeries, created both positive and emotional responses. I found artwork using specific images a useful and satisfying way to express her experience,” says Ethel. In gratitude for care received, Teresa will donate 20% of proceeds from sales of the Targeted Therapy series to Swedish Cancer Institute.
