While she is known for vivid landscapes, Stinnett’s new exhibit features monochrome compositions that highlight the interplay of light and shadow in watery landscapes.

“I’ve always been drawn to vibrant scenes — fields of wildflowers, fiery sunsets — so most of my work reflects that,” Stinnett said. “Monochrome photography never really crossed my mind. Honestly, I used to think it was ‘easy’ — just a quick conversion to black and white. But, like anyone learning and growing, I realized how wrong I was.”

Originally from Wisconsin, Stinnett did not become a photographer until 2016, after moving to the Olympic Peninsula.

Liquid Contrast can be viewed from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays at Harbor Art Gallery throughout April.

• The Laura Cooksey Gallery at Field Arts & Events Hall, 201 W. Front St. in Port Angeles, will host a reception for the release of “George Smith” from 5 p.m. to 5:45 p.m.

The new comic book, created by artist Cammry Lapka, is about a paranormal investigator in the Pacific Northwest.

Lapka will be on hand to sign copies of the book.

Lapka also will be part of a Squatchcon main stage panel about creating comics at 11 a.m. Saturday.

Squatchcon will host a screening of the director’s cut of “The Lady of the Lake” in the Donna M. Morris Theater at Field Hall at 6 p.m.

The 2023 true crime documentary explores the 1937 disappearance of Hallie Illingworth, whose remains were discovered in Lake Crescent three years later.

Ryan Grulick, the film’s director, will discuss the process behind creating original fiction and documentary films during a Squatchcon panel discussion at noon Friday.

The Cosplay Costume Party, featuring live music by Abracadabra Trip, will start at 7 p.m. at Field Hall.

Winners of the Squatchcon Cosplay Contest will be announced during the party. Attendance is not required to win.
