is a writer who reacts to the world around her and finds that life is often unexpected. What we make of events provides grist for writing as we navigate lives and relationships. It’s good to take a moment to pause and consider. She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from the Rainier Writing Program at PLU. But is forever indebted to her writing instructors at the University of Montana: Judy Blunt, Deborah Magpie Earling, Brian deSalvatore, Peter Orner, Kevin Canty, and Robert Stubblefield. Masters all.

Ann Vandervelde - 1 post

is an abstract artist living on Lope Island, WA. Her artist's statement reads "Ann Vandervelde, Seattle and Lopez Island, Washington artist, creates works that reflect structure, objects, texture, and color defined by reflection and observation. The artist’s materials are a mixture of papers, acrylics, oil pastels, and house paint on canvas. Shape takes form, images appear and disappear like the titles at the beginning, middle, and end of each work. For Vandervelde the challenge is to accept that a composition is never quite done, that it has the capacity to evolve and change and be understood separate from that initial vision."
