Interactive Art with Brooke Borcherding
sponsored by Art Walk Edmonds
Join the fun and help create an amazing painting at the party with local artist, Brooke Borcherding. The artwork will be auctioned off at the end of the event, and will be ready to take home a few weeks later once it is fully dry!
Brooke is a full time award winning artist working out of Wallingford in Seattle, Washington. She began painting in high school 20 years ago in Southern California and earned a BFA in painting from the University of Oregon in 2010. She considers herself a self-taught landscape painter, gaining knowledge from plein air peers when she took her easel outdoor for the first time in 2009 and producing a prolific output ever since. Her unique style evolved from a desire to investigate human perception in aesthetics, and to stimulate our human senses by exaggerating the color and space we see around us.
Over the past decade as an exhibiting artist Brooke has become nationally and internationally collected, hangs in numerous galleries in the PNW and most recently been featured in Sep 2022 issue of Plein Air Magazine for urban plein air painting. In 2019 she was featured in American Art Collector Magazine and in 2016 Southwest Art Magazine was selected as one of the “21 artists under 31” artists to watch. She was awarded a prestigious prize for best oil/acrylic painting at the 2018 Carmel Plein Air Competition in California and continues to be recognized for her unique work in a traditional field, earning 3rd place on Whidbey island’s 2023 plein air paintout and 2 honorable mentions at the Edmonds plein air paintouts 2022/23. If you live in the Seattle area you may also find her work in various businesses or neighborhood art walks.
Enjoy tunes by the Dogtones
The Dogtones are a dynamic rock/pop cover band. Since 2009, this high-energy 3-piece pop rock band has been lighting up stages across the PNW with infectious medleys, playful humor, and non-stop fun.
