"My work seeks to map the immutable character of time and the timeless nature of our half remembered dreams. Inspired by the world within rather than the world around us, the viewer is left to interpret, through their own filters, what time means to them. Digital art provides me the perfect medium in which to explore these concepts in new and ever changing ways." -- Michelle Shields Perdue

Sumi-e is a Japanese word for ink painting. The formation of the Puget Sound Sumi Artists was initiated by several artists to study this art, calligraphy (shodo) and flower arranging (ikebana). The organization was started in 1985 in Tacoma and now numbers over 70 members from Tacoma, Seattle, Bellevue, Mercer Island, Federal Way, Bremerton, Everett, Spokane, Olympia, Gig Harbor and other Puget Sound communities. Many members are teachers and instructors who offer regular classes; members are often in community schools teaching sumi-e and sharing brush writing with students. They work with traditional materials and ecourage individual creativity. The artists are committed to share their Asian art interest with the public.

"It is not down in any map; true places never are" -- Herman Melville

"At the heart of it, I think we are all looking for the true place where we are accepted and loved. I make images of aspects of the place where I live as a metaphor of that acceptance. The ambiguous qualities of flora and fauna in nature are reflections of just how interconnected we are. My hope is that the viewer can respond to these musings in my artwork and wonder about the connectedness of us all." --Rie Palkovic

“Assorted Idols” is an array of vigilant characters playfully referencing ancient Egyptian art. Each idol was created to engage the viewer in a lighthearted and imaginary encounter with something lost then found. Like a faintly perceptible vestige, this work venerates the enduring traces of our kept sense of wonder.

“Tragedy and loss led me to pick up the paint brush almost two years ago. Painting what I feel has led to a beautiful change and has created a life full of gratefulness, peace and happiness.” – Rebekah Littlefield
