SEQUIM — The Blue Whole Gallery is one stop on the First Friday Art Walk in Sequim tonight.

Featured artists Carol Janda, a potter and painter, and Debbie Cain, a gourd artist, will be available to meet the public from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. tonight at the gallery at 129 W. Washington St., which is routinely open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.

Their show, “Gentle and Tranquil,” is “filled with the magic of nature,” organizers said.

Said Janda: “Art has been a lifetime blessing from childhood to my years at Glacier Bay, Alaska, during long dark winters and now during these stay-at-home days.”

Cain said she often is inspired by Southwest Native American motifs.

“When I did my first gourd about 20 years ago, I was totally captivated and very excited to explore the possibilities on this new 3D canvas,” she said.

First Friday Art Walk in Sequim is a free, self-guided tour of local art venues from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. the first Friday of each month.

The color theme this month is brown, representative of warm hearth and harvest, said First Friday organizer Renne Emiko Brock.
