The friends share a love of travel and experiencing the world.

Piccola has been using a technique called Sgraffito, which involves applying a layer of colored glaze, then scoring it to reveal the color of the base layer.

Sanborn draws from her experiences in nature to create her paintings.

• The A. Milligan Art Studio and Gallery, 520 N. Sequim Ave., will host the “Plein Air Inspirations” exhibit featuring the work of Jinx Bryant, Joyce Hester, Marian Morris and Roger Morris.

The artworks in the show range from pieces painted entirely on site, to works that were begun outside and finished in the studio, to pieces painted solely in the studio yet inspired by the experiences of the artist’s plein air sessions.

Vistors also may peek into Anne Milligan’s Pastel Studio to see her works in progress as well as some of her finished pieces.
