Artworks Gallery finds the heart’s desire


January 29, 2013 · Updated 2:14 PM 

Artworks Gallery will feature artist Gaylen Whiteman and her February exhibit, “Hearts Desire.” Her works will be on view during Artworks’ First Friday reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 1. Live music will be provided by guitarist Quinn Fitzpatrick. Wine tasting will be available and chocolates will be served.

Whiteman is returning to active participation at the gallery, and to her drawing and painting, following a successful battle for the past year with serious health issues. Whiteman will be showing watercolor and oil paintings, framed Giclée prints and cards of some of her favorite subjects captured by her artist’s brush on Whidbey Island. In her art, she strives to show the connection of soul and spirit that man has with all of nature.

Artworks Gallery is located at the Greenbank Farm. For details, call 222-3010.
