At Western Washington University he studied Elementary Art Education and as an elementary school teacher, art lessons and projects were an important part of his curriculum. In 1998 he retired after 31 1/2 years of teaching in the Seattle School District.

With retirement, he was able to return to his watercolors. Although he is basically self taught, he has taken classes from local artists.

THINGS CHINESE

Opening at Dragonfly Holistic Center December 3, an exhibit of photography by Ed Campbell architect/photographer of Chicago displays art workshops as well as some fine art. There are faces and figures, human and otherwise from that vast country as well as some ancient amazing historic artifacts,.random views of landscapes, markets, men boys and monks at play.

As an architect I am registering the shape, style and ornamentation of buildings all the time. While the camera I use does not accommodate the sweep of grand facades, what I look for are elements of the design which can be isolated and enhanced to become independent art studies. I use the same approach for cabinetry, hardware and fabrics.
Another guide to picturing things is to look for patterns, repetitions and similarities, An instance of this in this show are cascades of multicolored silk for carpet weaving and newly pressed noodles drying out doors--two utterly different materials sharing the waterfall aspect
In nature photography I have found that an enlightened recognition of structure, function ,texture and coloration occurs the closer it is imaged--wonders continue to appear

Artist Cathleen Shattuck

Photography is about being present. When we make an image, like the aperture, we are open and engaging in the now. With nature photography immediacy takes precedent. Whether you’ve waited minutes, hours or days for the shot, this may never happen the same way again. Show up for it with your eyes open or it’s gone. But the photographer is more than a mirror with a reflecting instinct, our consciousness imposes order, sentiment, and narrative. A balance between the provocation of the mind and the chaotic occurrences of the natural ‘other’ is what I strive to capture in this work.

Bio

Cathleen Shattuck grew up in Vermont and graduated from Bard College with a degree in Writing and Literature. She has spent the last thirteen years in Washington and currently lives in the International District. She has had photographs published in American Spa Magazine, Daily Candy and on multiple websites including pikemarketbuskers.org, talkingpyramids.com, and highmaintenanceskin.com. She is also a working commercial/product photographer. Her work has been shown at The Hardware Store, Vashon, the Daniel Smith Art Gallery, Seattle, and Books By the Way, Vashon. She is the bass player and singer/songwriter for Splitfoot's Mystery School. Her poems have been published in magazines such as, First Intensity, Notus, Golden Handcuffs, Five Finger's Review and more.

Artist James Campbell

"My art is a reflection of the incredible beauty that I see everywhere. I capture texture, light, shadow, color, reflection, and contrast in my photos . I compose the discrete elements in ways that are less reflective of their individuality and more indicative of the ways in which everything is interconnected. That connection may be one of contrast or similarity but each element requires the other for its’ strength.

I draw on my background as a carpenter and cabinetmaker as well as my Tai Chi practice in photography work. I try to minimize my rational mind and promote a strong connection between my eyes, my core and my hands as I compose each picture.

Currently I am pursuing ways in which I can capture elements of people’s lives through abstract images."

Feb 5th Artwalk, Reflections on Love with Artist Kelly Keigwin

2010-01-26T23:54:00.000-08:00

February Artwalk
Reflections on Love

Friday Feb 5th 6-9
Artist Kelly Keigwin:
"I grew up in a small desert town north of Los Angeles, California. I had a lot of time to dream while living there among the yucca trees and tumbleweeds that have since been destroyed by strip malls and track homes. My life as an artist was shaped by this place, by the longing I felt during those years.
Light, joy, love, passion, heartache, loss, social injustice, man's negative impact on the world - anything that I feel in the pit of my stomach inspires me. I try to embrace the irony of the human experience, whether my experience or another's. In my world beauty is found in that which most people pass by everyday."

QiGong Healing Treatment

     This healing technique comes from a family lineage linked to the personal physician to the last emperor of China.

     Qi Gong essentially means, "Life Energy Practice" and this healing technique uses all four of the branches of QiGong:

Sound practice

Movement practice

Visualization practice

Stillness practice

     The best way to experience Qi Gong is to practice every day, but receiving a treatment from a Qi Gong practitioner can bring you a sense of balance and into a place of centeredness where you can see your life more clearly.

Thousand Hands Buddha QiGong

This QiGong form helps one to develop the wisdom and courage to learn to follow your heart.

A seated form using mudras (hand positions) to open the heart, calm the mind and balance the emotions. Developed by a deaf QiGong master through observation of the different Buddhas in the temples, and by knowing intimately how much information can be exchanged through our hands, with people, and with the natural energy of the universe.

This method is particularly helpful for releasing daily stress and maintaining memory.

A 6 Hour Classes Offered One weekend every other month at Dragonfly Holistic Healing and other venues.

An Economy in Need of Holistic Medicine

2009-11-10T16:49:00.001-08:00

An Economy in Need of Holistic Medicine

By ANAND GIRIDHARADAS

Published: October 23, 2009

CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS — The American economy is having what doctors call an acute episode.

Employment won't throb. The circulation of capital remains weak. Industry is breathing, but barely. And if we can agree on anything one year into this mess, it is that there is little we can do when the patient arrives already this bad.

That is why the talk now is so often of prevention. Prevent the next crisis through health insurance and a green-energy sector, the American president says. Prevent it by cutting spending and nurturing personal responsibility, American conservatives retort.

But the truth is that politicians, and not just in the United States, are rarely willing to invest in a problem that hasn't occurred. Consensus and action are easier to come by after a 9/11 or a Lehman Brothers than before. Problems in the embryonic, soluble phase don't interest us; and those that do interest us are often too big to solve.

Which is where acupuncture comes in.

Grand-er Opening October 2nd with Roberta Holden

2009-09-25T12:54:00.000-07:00

To welcome all our new practitioners and our new Holistic Wellness Packages to the public, we are having an even Grander Opening!.

Friday October 2nd, 2009 6-9 pm
Fremont First Friday Art Walk at
Dragonfly Holistic Healing
760 N. 34th St.

We invite you to come celebrate our Grander Opening and view our new exhibit: The Stillness of Motion: Changing Polar Landscapes by Roberta Holden, photographer from Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Roberta Holden’s photography draws on a wide range of unique life experiences. The themes of motion and impermanence that connect much of her work can be traced to her many years on the open ocean, both during her 14 years living aboard a sailboat as a child and later, as a professional sailor on the single-handed offshore racing circuit. Her photographs of the Polar Regions draw both from her practical experience in high latitude and high altitude regions, as a mountaineer and glaciological field assistant, as well as from her studies in atmospheric science, glaciology and Arctic studies. She first had the opportunity to explore Antarctica during a two-month, six-woman mountaineering and sailing expedition in 2002. Five years later, she returned as a photographer, lead climber and crew aboard another sailboat.

Similar to the contemplative traditions of Miksang and Zen Art, Roberta’s photographic practice emphasizes the experiential qualities of seeing as a path to awakening. From this philosophical perspective, there is no distinction between the photograph, the photographed and the photographer, no subject and object, no seer and seen, no barriers between mind and space.
