ARTIST in RESIDENCE - WHITELEY SCHOLAR, Whiteley Center, San Juan Island.

Creative Inspiration
Surrounded by the Salish Sea on San Juan Island, the Helen Rabioff Whiteley Center hosts academic scholars and artistic spirits . I plan to focus on
a new art project during my creative retreat at the center and to roam the wild trails and rocky shores of the island for pods of orcas, hermit crabs, bald eagles, and foxes. Tucked in pristine, coastal woods the University of Washington Friday Harbor Laboratories, a world-renown marine research station, are an inspirational haven away from my urban studio and the buzz of the city.

            ARTIST in RESIDENCE
- IslandWood,             Bainbridge Island.


             The Art of Maps
             As a teaching artist, I facilitated 4 arts and sciences
             workshops for talented 4th and 5th graders in the                 School  Overnight Program at IslandWood.
             The Nature Learning Center located on Bainbridge
             Island is a beautiful campus in the woods. I had the
             privilege to interact with its amazing cohort of
             graduate instructors leading students to learn  
             about the environment. The young, visiting
             students that worked with me mapped the beach at
             historical Blakely Harbor.

      GEOLOGY EXPEDITION LEADER 
- French American School of           Puget Sound, Mercer Island, WA.

        Geological Exploration of Washington State
        Twenty one 6th graders and four instructors from the
        French American School of Puget Sound explored the geological         history of Washington state with me. And all in French!
        From the wild Pacific coast to the spectacular volcanic
        landscapes of the Columbia river plateau, the students
        discovered the processes that form and modify beaches, rivers,
        fossil deposits, mountains, volcanoes and glaciers through time.
        In the field, through observations of rock outcrops, collection of
        samples and challenging questions, these adventurous students
       
learned how to decipher the geological story of our state.
