“As a psychotherapist, I often utilized the expressive power of art to help facilitate healing for my clients- it allowed them to access unconscious parts of themselves they’d never get to know otherwise. Now disabled, I use it for my own healing. My work is driven by a meditative, somatically-inspired process. Paint, canvas, the camera lens, among others, are a catalyst for this. My work is also an invitation to anyone who is curious about how we embody this life – how we relate to others, the world around us, our many inner selves. How a color might define a mood. How a shape might evoke a particular memory. How an image can provide a platform for an inner journey of thought(s),feeling(s), and/or sensation(s). I generally like to leave my work untitled to allow others to see, feel, and experience it using their own inner guidance – just as my own inner guidance was used to create this work. My art is my conversation with this, my embodied life. It is a conversation I invite the viewer to become a part of, to participate in, to expand the dialogue of interconnectedness we share with all things.”
First Friday: Gail Hapeman & Wynne Earle
Featuring Stained Glass Artist, Gail Hapeman and talented photographer, Wynne H. Earle.
The great thing about the First Fridays at the Vashon Village is that they offer a great relaxing finish to your art walk, with food, art and music all in one wonderful village of businesses. Come on up, past the barricade, and know that we have a great space to rest and relax those art-walking tired feet!

First Friday - Wynne Earle
When I first discovered the shipyards of Port Townsend, I was mesmerized by the abstract surfaces and the unique combination of colors found in the boats’ hulls.
Each texture told a story: from the marking of their passage through rough Alaskan waters, to the sandblasting and stripping of those being restored for their return to sea.
Studying these layers of decay fascinated me, as it is this graphic evidence of both the random damage from nature and the intentional damage from the human touch. In this series of photographs, I wanted to capture how these organic shapes and dynamic colors create an abstract topography of the boat’s history and a way of understanding the timelessness of each journey upon which they have embarked.
