The Mountlake Terrace Arts Advisory Commission presents the Bonnie Hodges Exhibit at the Mountlake Terrace Library, 23300 58th Avenue West. The exhibit is entitled “Scenes from the Northwest” and will feature paintings by local artist, Bonnie Hodges, and will include scenes of the Edmonds Ferry and Skagit Valley. She works mainly with oil, pastel, watercolor, and digital media. Her realistic style brings spirit and energy to her paintings.

Hodges may be relatively new to the area, but she is already very active on the local art scene. Her paintings have been featured in local shows, such as the Arts of the Terrace Juried Art Show, Edmonds Arts Festival Juried Gallery, Edmonds Art Studio Tour, Emerald Downs Equine Art Show, Lowell Art Works in Everett, and more. Hodges teaches oil painting classes at Edmonds Community College.

Hodges is an award-winning artist in Edmonds, Washington. She holds a B.A. in Studio Arts from the University of Maryland, and worked as an illustrator for the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. Her paintings have been featured in national and international art shows, competitions, on book and magazine covers, and are on display in collections in the USA and Europe.

The Mountlake Terrace Arts Advisory Commission oversees the library exhibits as part of its mission to promote cultural events in the community.

The show runs through February 28 at the Mountlake Terrace Library, Mondays through Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Fridays, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays 1 to 5 p.m.
