In October, Annie's Art & Frame is Showing the Paintings of Mike Dipetrillo

Mike likes painting funny things. And as an artist, he doesn’t think funny has to be separate from beautiful. A lot of his art takes on concepts that can be paradoxical when combined: funny, cute, gross, weird, and beautiful.

 His paintings reflect his obsessions: dinosaurs, stripes, mythology, geek culture, and gross-out humor. He enjoys the reactions people have to his paintings. He has been compared to everyone from Dali to Tim Burton. He says that seeing what other people think of his paintings is as much fun as making the paintings themselves.

Capricorn

Mike is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, and has also attended Cornish College of the Arts. He’s been practicing art since he was but a tiny child. He works primarily with acrylics, and occasionally in digital media. Also, when he doesn’t know what to draw, he draws dragons.

Ghost Light Theatricals is a non-profit theatre company that was established in 2003 and they have been in their space, the Ballard Underground, since January 2010. Ghost Light Theatricals' mission is to create bold, imaginative stories inspired by classic texts that resonate with a modern world.

Hummingbird

Mark Siano creates haunting and spare images of nature, where something is always hidden and mysterious, through an endless array of weaving and twisting silhouettes. Bold and highly stylized images of tree branches, crows, nests, bramble, waterways, and flowers reflect Mark's interest in exploring the dense, complicated, and entangled areas of nature. Mark works primarily with ink and canvas and uses classic poster design techniques from the Art Nouveau era to frame and illustrate a large variety of projects. www.marksianoartwork.blogspot.com

October ArtWalk Artist: Karen Mataya

Painter Karen Mataya will be featured at Starbucks this October. Her oil paintings feature a series of tranquil tropical ocean scenes. Such gorgeous images to meditate on as the weather turns colder in Seattle. 

My desire to be at the beach is represented in my paintings. I like the warmth of the tropics and put myself in that setting while I paint.

October ArtWalk Artist: Megan Noel

For the month of October, Miro Tea is featuring local artist Meghan Noel. Ms. Noel is a painter, illustrator, & textile and mixed media artist working in the Northwest. 

In recent years she has chosen to focus more on her  intricate painting and illustrations. Her paintings and illustrations range from dreamy and surreal to delicate and whimsical. She seeks not to create masterpieces to grace the walls of museums, but rather to create smaller more intimate works to fit into the lives of readers and writers, poets and dreamers, mother, fathers, and everyday folk.
