Penn Cove Gallery printmaker, Linnane Armstrong has some big changes coming!  

According to Linnane: "Much has changed in my life over the last year, mainly becoming a mother last September. My husband and I have been loving introducing our son to an appreciation of nature, through regular hikes starting when he was only three weeks old. He loves being outdoors, and taking him to all of my favorite places here on Whidbey Island has inspired my to see them through new eyes.

​This became the inspiration for my newest woodblock print, which has a working title of 'Through a Child’s Eyes' (at left) This whimsical piece captures creatures hidden in the shapes of landscapes and clouds. This is the first of several new pieces I will have ready to debut at the Froggwell Biennale, August 5-7. Froggwell is the only show I am doing this year, and it feels great to focus on creating new work for it. 

​My other big news is that most of my studio has officially moved to Willow Pond Studio (shared with my mother), and we will be on the Whidbey Art Trail. I am hosting a 'First Proof Party' for my newest piece at Willow Pond Studio at 2pm on Saturday May 21. I will proof-print the blocks for the very first time at this event- it is a very exciting moment for me, and I would love to share the excitement with anyone who would like to come and learn more about my process. Meanwhile, you can always find my art at Penn Cove Gallery in Coupeville!"
