John
 Muhler

A professional artist and art teacher for over 30 years, John Delzell Muhler creates paintings that connect with the soul—the calm, dark mood of a coastal bay before a storm; the freshness of an early morning walk through a thick forest; the inner beauty of an elderly person wise with experience; the living spirit of a solitary piece of driftwood shaped and transformed by the elements.  Described as vibrant, striking and rich, his paintings capture light in all its subtleties and strengths.

  Molly LeMaster is primarily a watercolor artist who lives on Camano Island with her husband and three parrots.  In addition to watercolor, she also paints with acrylic inks & works in mixed media.  She has studied with several well known local artists and has participated in watercolor workshops both locally and internationally.  Upon retiring several years ago, she returned to her love of painting, which had been put on hold to raise a family.  Living on the Island, nature is a constant source of pleasure & inspiration for her work. She and her husband have traveled extensively in Europe, Asia and Mexico & these travels have also greatly influenced the subject matter of many of her paintings.

Edward
Trobec

Edward Trobec is an artist devoted to his creative medium. He skillfully transforms wet clay into sculpture that evokes a familiarity to our most nameless of human emotions.  Cast in bronze, his sculpture brings us deep into the sublime quality of being, much the same way that raw nature encourages us towards the contemplative.  His nude figures, unencumbered by fear, are as dignified as the naked reality of Nature; a pristine mountain, pure water, an innocent animal.  A single motif does not often identify his work. However, a sincere effort to unify a subtle complexity of mankind with physical reality is his constant challenge.
