Oil & Water Has been Elevated
Richard Nelson, owner of Oil and Water Arts, and Arty ready to "elevate art" to the top floor of Winslow Mall.
Artists on Bainbridge Island wondering what happened to Oil
& Water art supplies just need to go to the old location and
look up. They’ve moved on to the next story.
I talked with Pam Christiansen, who is the head of the Creativity
Center there associated with Oil & Water. She tells me that
they made the move upstairs not because it’s a bigger space but
because it’s a more focused space. Now it’s located right next to
the Creativity Center classrooms. Christiansen started the
Creativity Center three years ago; in June the center merged with
Oil & Water. “We had the same vision and ideas,” she said.
Moving downtown to the Winslow Mall was “great because people can
come over from Seattle. It’s centrally located,” she said.
The Creativity Center now has 16 faculty members who teach classes in most mediums, including oil, watercolors, acrylics, pastels, multimedia and drawing for both adults and children. They run labs with nude models every Thursday night, and even have an off-site sculpture class.
New sessions begin this month. You can get information here: oilandwaterarts.com/classes.html.
