Museum of Flight 3 / Seattle May 2019
It's #ThrowbackThursday! Here's a great shot from 2008 of a beautiful Western Redcedar, post and beam log cabin. This cozy home has Westeck architectural shaped windows in the great room and sliders with bronze reflective glass installed!

Cabin windows -
The cabin already had four windows as part of the original shell, however we wanted to add a couple of extra, especially as our neighbor gave us a bunch of old windows (thanks, Michael!).
We installed one large window on the east wall of the living room. This adds a lot of extra light and will help with air flow. We also needed a small one in the bathroom that we're making.
We had to cut out the studs and wall that were in the way and then reframe the space to accommodate a window. We now have the windows installed, although we still lack the outside trim.
The post Cabin windows appeared first on VelaCreations.

Vignette: Shawn Marshall
When Shawn Marshall was inspired to paint the view from an airplane window, we might assume that it was a rainy flight, with hopefully not too much turbulence, because Marshall’s balance between abstract and representational might suggest an overhead perspective on landscape through a rain-smeared pane of glass: the details are blurred, and the contours defining the roads and fields below are elusive, hard to pin down.
Abstraction makes you look harder at things. The central question in the viewer’s mind becomes - what do I see? The more cynical might phrase the question differently: what am I looking at? Yet one might offer that to be demand that art explain itself to you is actually the lazy approach. Marshall challenges the viewer, enticing them with just enough discernible representation, but layering a veneer of abstract expressionism between them and her subject, built with a heavily textured impasto that forces an immediate visceral relationship with the surface. Paint is always seductive.
“I create a three-dimensional surface on the canvas; always striving for balance between the layers of impasto and the underlying landscape beyond.” – Shawn Marshall
The bisected compositional structure, normally recognizing the natural horizon line encountered in the open, rural landscape, remains in these airborne point-of-view, Marshall’s eye always finding a road or river that cuts through the quadrants of fields and developments below.
Marshall was awarded First Place in the 2017 MAZIN Juried Art Exhibition that just closed at The Patio Gallery at the Jewish Community Center in Louisville, Kentucky, and she is about to open a solo show at Craft(s) Gallery & Mercantile in Louisville that will run from March 2 through 31, with an Opening Reception March 2 from 6:00-10:00pm.
Her work is in numerous private collections including PNC Bank, Pittsburgh, PA, Commonwealth Bank, Louisville, KY, and the University of Kentucky Medical Center, Lexington, KY.
