Julia Giordano is a paper collage artist living in Edmonds, WA. She discovered the joys of working with hand-painted paper collage several years ago and has been at it ever since. A lifelong crafter, she has also studied photography, botany, ornithology, and landscape architecture. These experiences all inform her collage work, from the selection of subject matter to composition and editing choices. Julia is also inspired by children’s illustration, scientific and educational illustration, and the endless wonders of the natural world. Julia uses hand-painted papers to create bright and lively depictions of plants and animals. She begins each original collage by painting colors and textures onto newsprint paper using acrylic paints. Once she is satisfied with the colors and the sheets have dried, she grabs her scissors and starts to cut. After much snipping and arranging, Julia settles on a final composition and begins the gluing down process. Once complete, Julia shares her work as original collages, giclee prints and greeting cards. Her prints and cards are available at ShoreLake Arts Gallery in Lake Forest Park and on her Etsy site, Julia Giordano Shop.

Epulo Bistro // Becca Lavin & Wendy Rader-Konofalski

190 Sunset Ave, open Sunday - Thursday 4-8:30pm , Friday - Saturday 3-9:30pm
SEE ART ALL MONTH DURING BUSINESS HOURS AND ART WALK ON APRIL 18TH 5-8PM

Becca Lavin started painting in 2020 when her 20 year old private massage therapy practice closed its doors for the last time. Becca's art is mainly abstract or representational abstract using every medium that is within reach. It is restless, colorful and textured with a mind of its own. If there is a theme, she hasn't found it yet. Perhaps, Freedom. By the time she finishes a painting there is usually a deep understanding that has surfaced, for her. She leaves the rest to the observer as that is one of the magical things about abstract. The utter subjectiveness of what comes through to the observer. "I love that about abstract!"

Wendy Rader-Konofalski is a local artist who started painting later in life. A brush with death and seven weeks in the hospital and a long recovery may have worked a form of magic on her brain that opened up a portal into a creativity that she never knew existed. Wendy paints on canvas with acrylics, but often use mixed media elements such as charcoal and ink. She enjoys including collage in her work. She paints abstract works and landscapes as well as small florals. Wendy views her work as a sort of symbiotic relationship: herself as artist, and you as viewer.
