I enjoy these graceful beaded collars and usually make them out of a more sparkly gemstone but I am loving the earthiness of the Azurite on this one. Greens, blues and browns all in one stone! Seed beads, azurite and one of my hoarded vintage buttons as a clasp.

Get Repost App • Anchorage Museum Prepare for our free First Friday reading of “A Field Guide to More-Than-Human Governance” by checking out the latest episode of Chatter Marks, featuring author Jonathon Keats.
 
At the heart of the book is a simple idea: humans didn’t invent governance. Living things have been organizing, cooperating, competing and adapting to one another for billions of years, and Jonathon argues that we might have something to learn from them.
 
Listen to the full interview now, wherever you get your podcasts, and join us on Friday, Sept. 8 at 6:30 p.m. to meet Keats during a book signing and conversation following the event.

CENTER GALLERY
Figurescape | David Pettibone

It’s important to me that the painting is allowed to develop organically. I try to keep the work open for as long as possible. To do that, I paint directly from life. When painting this way nothing is static. Colors shift with the sun, shadows grow and then disappear. These infinite micro changes insert an element of the unexpected and force me to respond in ways that I could never plan for. Working on paper has allowed me to respond to these changes in new ways, through cutting away, adding to the composition and even collaging new substrate to manipulate the surface. The result is an improvisation of intermingling layers of physical texture, of illusion and flat strokes of color that weave the impression of figure and landscape into a cohesive whole.

NORTH GALLERY
The Rebirth of Shipwreck | Ted Kincaid

How often do you find yourself falling back to a place of familiarity and comfort when confronted with adversity? For some of us it is further back than others. For some of us it is our childhood when we used our toys to make sense of the world. The Rebirth of Shipwreck is a narrative exploration of trauma, stumbling, healthy choices and healing through the lens of the artist’s childhood. Not all paths are the same and not all paths lead to a destination.
