We put the art on posters, jigsaw puzzles, framed art they can use for fund-raising. Sorry to say, but obviously that can&#8217;t be the case with this one &#8211; but I thought the orca and salmon paintings were worthy of being stand-alone art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know lots of Northwest boaters read this blog since I also write a monthly page for 48 North, the Puget Sound boating magazine. Next time you&#8217;re anchored off Sucia Island, search out these two installations. They&#8217;ll be living their lives sitting beside Mud Bay. I will, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for reading this week.
