My first sign after moving to La Conner in 2017; the business name later changed to Book Arts - La Conner; then the pandemic shut me down 2 years into my project. I loved painting this sign stand and it is still there on Morris Street, empty and sad, as you first drive into town from the roundabout (I took the sign with me).
I was able to live in this house, have a small gallery, represent over 20 artists and also offer a small classroom space where I taught beginning Book Arts and block printing. I am still trying to get going again.
I tried advertising my skills in the valley, but this was my only job, a drag-racing car in a Burlington garage. It was interesting, but enamel paints are very hard to work with!
