Affirmation

Sue Ellen Parkinson
July 10 - Aug 3, 2020 |
Sue Ellen Parkinson’s uplifting show, “Affirmation,” will be at Northcoast Artists Gallery from July 10 through Aug 2, 2020. Parkinson, a visionary who explores the Sacred Feminine, comes from outside the Christian tradition—from an unexpected journey that has profoundly changed her life. Her non-tradional icons, which weave elements of her own life into the legends surrounding the Christian mystics, show a uniquely philosophical and personal connection to the spiritual world. “I'm taking back the negative stories about women," Parkinson explains, "and retelling them in such a way that is life affirming.” In her painting, "Guided By Stars,” Eve appears as a grandmother who feels perfectly fine about eating her apple. She's even got an appleseed necklace and apple blossoms in her halo! Parkinson is a strong believer that creativity is soul-work and an essential component in transformation.
Northcoast Artists Gallery will be open weekends: Friday through Sunday, from 11 to 4pm. Due to Covid-19 restrictions there will be no First Friday reception. However, Sue Ellen will be at the gallery each Saturday during the month of her show, and will be happy to share stories about her paintings. Social distancing guidelines will be required, with a limit of 8 customers at a time.
Come see all the beautiful work this amazing collective of artists has created in response to the difficulty of our times! It will give you hope!

Our members would like to thank everyone for their continued support throughout these challenging times. Now that we've reopened, we hope you'll soon stop by and see the wonderful art and fine craft our artists have made over these past few months.
At present, our gallery is only open on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sunday, but we're cautiously optimistic about the future, hoping that as the summer progresses we will be able to offer more visiting hours and more business days. We're doing our part to follow the county's health guidelines, hoping that the measures will keep everyone safe while they enjoy their visit to the beautiful Mendocino Coast.
For those who can't visit, be sure to check out our members' online stores. Many of the same items that we normally sell at our physical location in Fort Bragg, California are also offered there.
Sincerely, everyone at Northcoast Artists

The Gallery welcomes new guest artist Cynthia sumner
|
Cynthia Sumner takes her inspiration from the natural world, working in themes that suggest transformation. She often works between abstract expressionism, investigating the exquisiteness of form through both paint and clay using layering, scrapping, incising, drawing, and molding until the image reflects her own internal landscape.
