No more Tears, Only Dreams now... June Show at The Red Raven

No More Tears, only dreams now....


The Red Raven Gallery is bringing out all the stops for June artwalk!  The Show, titled, "No more tears, Only dreams now...." Features Three Uber-talented figurative artists from different corners of the world with all new work done especially for us!

Returning a year later, for her second show with the Red Raven Gallery we welcome Jel Ena from Los Angeles. Her show with us last year, Medusa in Furs, was very well received and she brings it again with new  mixed media works on paper and wood. Jels' style is at once in your face powerful and vulnerable... her subjects are the stuff of dreams in saturated color and fine swirling, graceful lines.

ink on paper


Our second artist in her first feature at the Red Raven is Alice Savage from Italy.  Alice is a well known international artist working primarily in pen and ink.  Her work is highly detailed and striking, concentrating on the face and intertwining the elements of nature in both flora and fauna.

oil on wood


Finally our featured local artist is gallery manager Laurie McClave.  Laurie is working in oils on wood for the show and will be debuting her latest pieces at artwalk, Saturday night June 1st. Her new works portray a bit of  her life here in the PNW and touch on the fact that her husband works at sea much of the year, a common theme here in Port Townsend. The color of the sky, the water and the nautical elements of life on our little peninsula are interspersed with Lauries' female characters in her signature style.

RED RAVEN is MOVING UNDERTOWN!

Help Red Raven Gallery Co-op Move to their new space UNDERTOWN!!!!!


The Red Raven Gallery must move in July, and we need your help.  We are re-locating to the Undertown spaces of Port Townsend which will be a very cool move indeed.  We are a not for profit co-op so we do not have the funds to pay for the needed lighting, new shelving and the various items that go along with opening up a new gallery.....The coolest thing is we will now have room for an artists space to work in house... but we will need to build a little corner for that.. so, we are asking our loyal art loving customers to donate small amounts to help us achieve our goal of creating a welcoming artist gallery environment that is in keeping with our affordable accessible artwork from amazing artists both locally and worldwide! There are rewards at every level of donating.. cause we love to give back and pay it forward! Thank you in advance for any help you can give, sharing is also an excellent way to help us, so share this and our link to our Go Fund Me page
