We Love Washington State! Celebrate with Washington Art!

Washington State is full of beauty.  Nature offers us the ocean, lakes, mountains, hills, rivers, waterfalls and more.  We love our salmon, crab, evergreens and tumbleweeds.  There are man-made things too, like our beloved Space Needle, Pike Place Market, and more.

Our Washington artists like to commemorate those things too!  Check out our great selection, and purchase them right here.  We'll mail them right to your home.  If you now live outside Washington state, we'll include a refund check for our state sales tax.  Everyone gets free shipping!

Light weight wall clock by Olympia's Pam Corwin

Pam Corwin paints vivid watercolors that she then reproduces and mounts on foam core.  It looks like a heavy ceramic tile, but it's super light weight.  You can drop it, but you can't break it!  She added silent (no ticking!) clock works to give us a great piece of functional art.  This one measures 6" x 8".  It needs a AA battery.

Hand-cut copper salmon encased between two pieces of textured glass

A copper salmon is captured and fused between two pieces of textured glass, and given a wavy layout so it can stand up by itself.  The heat from the fusing process brings out yummy colors in the salmon like terra cotta, brick and even purple.  Created in Mill Creek, Washington, by Charlton Glassworks, this simple elegance of this piece of art beautifully captures our iconic salmon.  It measures 6.5" x 17.5".

And then there's our beloved Space Needle!  There are plenty of hokey tourist products available, but let an artist get to work and look out!  These fused glass votive shields have a glass votive cup adhered to the back.  The surface design is all done with dichroic glass and its cool metallic finish.  When the candle is lit, the ambient glow is very charming.  The orange and cobalt shields measure 7" x 6". The center turquoise shield measures 7" x 4.5".  Here's a side view to show you the candle cup....

Each ornament is 3.25" in diameter.  It is cut out of a single, flat (originally) sheet of aluminum with a water jet.  The design allows the artist to manipulate the metal upon completion to get a 3-D effect.  While these are ornaments, they aren't holiday specific, so could be enjoyed year-round.

Fused glass art salmon adhered to a steel base, with steel "seaweed" behind

This festive salmon is a votive candle holder!  The festive combo of regular and dichroic fused glass mounted on a steel frame.  The body of the salmon is open in the back, allowing the glow of the candle flame to be seen through the various glass colors.  The seaweed behind the salmon is actually several inches behind the salmon itself, connected by a steel tray that holds the candle cup.  Here's a side view:

The salmon is 8.5" long x 4" tall.  It's 4.5" deep.
