HOFFMAN GALLERY PRESENTS
‘EARTH. WATER. SKY.’ ENCAUSTIC WORKS
MANZANITA — The Hoffman
Center for the Arts in Man-
zanita will host a showing of
encaustic works titled “Earth.
Water. Sky.” by Washington
artist Lara Blair through Octo-
ber.
The show opens with a
special reception 3 to 5 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 6.
The works will
remain up for
viewing during
regular Gallery
Hours — 3 to
5 p.m. Fridays
and Saturdays
Lara Blair
— through
Saturday, Oct.
28, plus anytime the center is
open for other events.
“Earth, water and sky are
the three essentials that inspire
me to create art from a bird’s-
eye view,” Blair said. “I was
always the child craning her
neck to see the world from an
airplane window. So I choose to
take small pieces of this beauty,
using wax, oil paint and various
mediums, molding them into
how I see the world — one
piece at a time.”
Blair’s website is larablai-
rart.com.
