"I first fell in love with Paris as I climbed the stairs out of the Metro for the first time.  I have returned many times since that first visit, to experience and photograph what I know and love about the City of Light.  My favorite images are those that capture a moment of Paris life, frozen, be it the light and wind in the trees in a square, the play of sunlight on the surface of the Seine , or a quiet street after nightfall." - Jendro
Wine for $5/glass (or 5/$20).  Live pre-WWII style jazz/swing by Casey MacGill’s Blue 4 Trio, and Fusion on the Run will be serving their Hawaiian-inspired cuisine in the parking lot.  This is a great place to start your evening and then work your way around to the other galleries!

100 NE Northlake Way, Ste. 200
"My work is inspired by magic, ritual, and an exploration of the concept of the uncanny. I am interested in the mind's attempts to make sense of confusing or contradictory stimuli, and my artistic process tends to hover on the border between unpredictability and stability, attraction and repulsion, fragility and strength, reflectivity and transparency."  - Kain
Selections from 3 of Kain's bodies of work (the "Apsis", "Synesthesia", and "Reliquaries" series) will be on view from 6-8pm during Fremont Art Walk.

122 NW 36th St.
Exhibit: Clark Little, Photography
Clark Little captures the extraordinary power and beauty of the “shorebreak” with the confidence of an experienced surfer through the camera lens.  Born in California and raised in Hawaii, his view is a unique and often dangerous perspective of waves captured from the inside out.  Clark's work has been published in major publications such as National Geographic, Sierra Magazine, Nikon World, and Surfer's Journal, and he has been featured on Good Morning America, Inside Edition, and The Today Show.  As winner of the 2010 Oceans Photography Award, his award winning photographs will be hanging at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington DC from April - Sept. 2011.  Meanwhile, you can enjoy his newest works printed on aluminum at evo TimesInfinity Gallery in April.  The images seem to pop from the surface of the metal and possess an almost 3D feel…don't miss this!
Regular hours: M-Sat 11-8pm, Sun. 11-7pm

760 N. 34th St.
One of Wenick's earliest memories is taking pictures of President Ford and Emperor Hirohito of Japan during a second-grade trip to the White House as a child.  He later learned fundamental camera and darkroom skills at the Smithsonian Institution Young Associate Program. After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Government he studied fine art printing with Charles Hrbeck in Boston. He has been strongly influenced by the storytelling techniques used in Life, Smithsonian and National Geographic magazines. 
 This show “Japan — A Portrait” utilizes images from black and white slide film, digitally printed on pure cotton paper with pure carbon pigments. The result: prints that should remain as luminous 500 years from now as they are today.  These photographs give the viewer a glimpse of Japan today: people working, playing and loitering shown side by side to create one portrait, one look at the face of Japan.
Regular hours: M-F 9am-9pm

Emily Alice Peck’s work is encaustic art, using wax, heat, and pigment.  She began developing her technique almost 3 years ago:  “The canvas built of wood, using plaster/fresco base, color oil pastels, acrylic, oil, milk and clay paints.  The lines are etched, and finished with layers of wax.”  Stop in and see these playful bicycle-focused pieces before they move on to another lucky venue at the end of April!

3510 Fremont Place N 
"Kidnapped at birth by crazed Irish nuns, Kree was rescued by marauding Tuareg cyber warriors.  Trained in the arcane skills of subterfuge, fantasy and fomenting small rebellions, she was downloaded into a Dutch windmill where years of solitude sparked her passion for the arts.  Kree’s work ranges from the ridiculous to the sublime, depending upon her feeding schedule.  Her experiences as a graphic artist, miniaturist, bohemian world citizen and itinerant henna dervish influence her acrylic, mixed media and digital pieces. Rife with exotic henna patterns, riddled with steamy visual contraptions or dipped in the glittery afterglow of serene shisha dreams – you decide!"  Also, free jewelry inspection/cleaning while you enjoy the art & refreshments!
Regular hours: Tues-Sat 10-6pm
Phone: 206.547.5551

"I have always made art. My eyes and my heart have always been excited by the ability to create something out of nothing. I weave with yard waste, or gathered materials. I spend many hours LOOKING at things entranced by how one takes a three dimensional object, puts it on two dimensional paper to make it look three dimensional. That thrills me."  ArtFX Gallery is pleased to show the results of her creative wanderings!
Regular hours: Thursday to Sunday, 12-5pm
