Robin grass scratchboard
Self Portrait
Some
of the strange and wonderful creatures who inhabit Robin Grass’ head
will parade through our Gallery September 1-25, caught on scratchboard
in the act of doing strange and wonderful things. Sly, multi-layered
images by the duke of droll. Don’t miss it.
Grass is a graduate of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia. He lives with three cats and a Mouse at the Foundry Art Studio in Everett.

come meet him at a reception 1-3 p.m. Sunday, September 12.
If you’re curious about scratchboard, you’ll be happy to know that he will give a demonstration of the art form at 2 p.m. Saturday, September 18.
