Part studio, part gallery, space for hire and art classes to boot!

Whether you’re looking to take a class for yourself, art enrichment for your kids, birthday parties, art parties, any party, sell and showcase your goods, teach a class…goodness, the list goes on! Please come to us with your ideas, your art or just a willingness to create. Westerly Studio is that kind of space.

From the minute I picked up my first loom, (who I have affectionately named Vera, after my Grandma) I knew weaving was for me. Working with different fibers to create unique, handmade, woven wall hangings is true joy for me. I continue to challenge myself with new techniques, styles and wide variety of fibers.

I love teaching. Encaustic painting is such an old art form and being able to share that with my students is joyful and fulfilling.

I started in 2012, offering Wax and Wine workshops in the Walla Walla Valley, and teaching through the Quest program at WWCC.

Returning to Seattle in 2014, I continued to teach in Walla Walla, until 2018, when Fogue Studios and Gallery opened and I moved into Studio 1A to work and teach.
