Come see Rick, Genna Draper, Beata Ondikova Metzelaar (specifically tents 59 &60) and many many other artists.
There’s a shuttle bus from the junction, the West Seattle Water Taxi, a city bus and ample parking. Go to the Alki Art Fair Website for times and directions. Artists will be showing new works created specifically for the show.
[UPDATE] The generosity overflowed all night! Evolving was expected to reach $2,100, but after some fast bidding, it more than doubled that price! Thank you to everyone that attended such a great event for an even greater cause!

Ricardo makes paintings, drawings, sculptures and mixed media artworks.
By exploring the concept of landscape in a nostalgic way, he creates intense personal moments masterfully created by means of rules and omissions, acceptance and refusal, luring the viewer round and round in circles.
His paintings don’t reference recognizable form. The results are deconstructed to the extent that meaning is shifted and possible interpretation becomes multifaceted. By applying abstraction, he investigates the dynamics of landscape, including the manipulation of its effects and the limits of spectacle based on our assumptions of what landscape means to us. Rather than presenting a factual reality, an illusion is fabricated to conjure the realms of our imagination.
His works establish a link between the landscapes reality and that imagined by its conceiver. These works focus on concrete questions that determine our existence. Ricardo Romero Cortez Duque currently lives and works in Seattle.
