UP Front [art] Issaquah artist Anne Anderson has silk paintings featured at UP Front. This unique art form is similar to the watercolor process; however, the medium is quite different: silk, wax, and dyes. She enjoys the medium for its deep and rich color reflecting properties. Often inspired by primitive images, she also paints luminous flowers from her garden. Here is a magnolia.

UP Front [art] This show is very cool. Opening reception, Nov. 6, 6-8pm, for "Make Your Mark! An Experiment in Figure Drawing on Walls." What happens when you bring together 30 artists, a live model, and permission to draw on the walls? This show is an experiment in an accumulative drawing process, resulting in artEAST's first community art installation. On view through Nov. 29 in the artEAST Gallery at UP Front.

Barbara Patera's recent solo showing which ended Halloween Day 2009, is a striking body of work confidently executed, compositionally bold, and masterfully laconic. Each image and title works at multiple levels simultaneously provoking meaning and doubt while leaving the viewer pondering Ms. Patera's insistent ambiguity. A powerful show of insight, creatively depicted.

There's still room for you in Jean Mills's once-a-month 10-month class that uses the principles and elements of design as a backdrop for exploration of the student's own creative abilities in fiber art. The classes provide ...the students a safe community environment in which to take risks, and share constructive criti...que and knowledge. The students work and experiment with color, texture, beads, and surface embellishments. Basic sewing skills are helpful, but not necessary (fusing is an option to sewing).
