Reflections

Written by Catherine Harlow Edited by Kathryn Cooperman Featured Image by Catherine Harlow The end of a year is always a time for reflection, and this year is no exception.  Arguably, this year has caused many of us to reflect on our lives more often than we normally otherwise would. It is important to take […]Read Post ›

Reflections on the Seattle Art Fair

The first weekend of August the Seattle Art Fair gathered local artists, artists from across the country, and artists from across the globe.  Inspired by Art Basel and the Venice Biennale, Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen founded the fair in 2015 “with a goal to be a one-of-a-kind destination for the best in modern and contemporary […]Read Post ›

The Art Direction of “Horizon Zero Dawn”

Horizon Zero Dawn is the game I have played most recently, and as I progressed through the game I was continually blown away by the attention to detail in the world-building, which is particularly evident in the aesthetics of the peoples and creatures.  Horizon Zero Dawn is an action role-playing game (RPG) set in a […]Read Post ›

Black Panther: A Revolutionary Game-Changer

  One could very easily write a long research paper about Black Panther.  Much has already been said about the importance of its powerful and groundbreaking mainstream representation, from Time Magazine’s February 19 cover story by Jamil Smith, to the Twitter campaign #WhatBlackPantherMeanstoMe begun by Kayla Sutton of the website Black Girl Nerds, to a flood […]Read Post ›

Painting Time-Lapse

One of the reasons I like to paint is that visual art can initiate open-ended conversations in a way that written words cannot.  Words have specific meanings and are meant to clearly and precisely convey that meaning, albeit with some room for interpretation when it comes to literature and poetry.  Viewing art, however, is very often […]Read Post ›

The Evolution of a Painting

I am fascinated with the in-progress state of paintings.  Seeing how a blank canvas develops with its structure, colors, and details into its final form is intriguing and revealing.  Most people who do not practice art do not realize the amount of thought and effort that goes into creating each piece.  Observing the progress and […]Read Post ›

The “Terracotta Warriors of the First Empire” at the Pacific Science Center

  The Pacific Science Center in Seattle teamed up with The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia to bring ten terracotta warriors and hundreds of other objects from the tomb stateside, as well as some objects from before and after the Qin dynasty, they personally chose on their trips to China.  The show opened at the Pacific […]Read Post ›

Daniela Rivera’s “The Andes Inverted” and Installing at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts

At the beginning of March, I had the incredible opportunity to help with the installation of Daniela Rivera’s show, The Andes Inverted, at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.  The Andes Inverted is a response to Chile’s copper mine, Chuquicamata.  The mine has been worked since before Columbus arrived in the Americas, and is now […]Read Post ›

An Aesthetic Review of Final Fantasy XV

I have long been a fan of video games, and since I’ve been playing them since I was a child, I can safely call myself a gamer.  As a gamer and an artist, I would argue that videos games are the newest art form medium.  While some games have tapped into this potential, the majority […]Read Post ›

I am an Artist–Am I an Artist?

I hope you’ll indulge me in a moment of self-reflection—I have come to appreciate that it is a powerful tool that we do not utilize as much as we should.  Answering questions about art and the artistic process for my last post made me take a more critical look at myself. After I graduated from […]Read Post ›
