Karen Hackenberg will be a featured artist at Pecha Kucha Night: Under the Influence at the Museum of Northwest Art next Saturday Aug. 27th! "I searched out Rockwell Kent images that might show his influence on the skies and light in my paintings.I found this image of his painting "Wreck of the D.T. Sheridan" (top) to be uncannily similar that of my painting “Stranded Vessel” (Bottom). I see it as an unconscious influence on my work, as I have a postcard of this painting tucked away on the wall in a corner of my studio." http://www.monamuseum.org/event/pechakucha-night-under-influence #pechakucha #museumofnorthwestart #contemporaryart #marinedebris #maritimeart #plasticpollution #artistinfluences #pacificcoastart #realistpainting #messageinabottle #karenhackenberg #ocean #rockwellkent #strandedvessel #WreckoftheDTSheridan
