This September Gallery North is pleased to present Gifts of Gratitude, a collection of sculptural and functional pottery by Karen Towey and portrait drawings by Father Armando Guzman. The show is a unique group of works created for the enjoyment of the public and an expression of gratitude from the artists who feel fortunate to be artists.

 Karen Towey is a professional artist and teacher at Archbishop Murphy High School as well as an artist member of Gallery North. She specializes in Raku and other styles of pottery, creating decorative and functional items such as dishes, mugs, and bake ware. Each piece reflects her close relationship with nature often including natural sculptural elements.

Father Armando Guzman, parochial vicar and chaplain at Archbishop Murphy High School, studied art at Gonzaga University. His fascination for the drama of the human face, its planes and shadows, has been his main artistic focus. The show will feature a variety of portrait drawings, each one telling a story about the subject.

The public is invited to meet Karen Towey and Father Armando Guzman at the Artists' Reception on Sunday, September 13th from 1:00 – 4:00 pm and again at the Edmonds Art Walk on September 17th from 5:00 – 8:00 p.m.  Refreshments will be served.   Please join us!  Gifts of Gratitude will be on display from September 1st through September 30th.
