SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 16, 2017 Backstreet Gallery welcomes quilter, silversmith Backstreet Gallery has wel- comed two new members, quilt artist Daphne W. John and sil- versmith Mike McIntyre. John’s art quilts are com- posed of the three layers of any quilt. However, she uses her sewing machine as her paint- brush and pallet knife with the result very much like a paint- ing. Texture adds to the overall effect. To complete these remark- able pieces she may embellish her unique designs with beads, lace, ribbon, yarn, pine needles or other artisitic elements. McIntyre begins his distinc- tive jewelry pieces with hand- picked gemstones that he shapes and polishes.

His rings, ear- rings, necklaces and bracelets, for both men and women, can take wearing apparel from ordinary to extraordinary. He also offers one-of-a-kind gems. Their work is on display at Backstreet Gallery, 1421 Bay Street in Florence. Dr. Mark Immel, Naturopathic Physician your source for natural medicine Patricia Immel, Lic.
