After 15 years of scooping in Madrona, Molly Moon’s closed its neighborhood window on September 13. Umami Kushi is preparing to take its place, bringing Harold Fields’s okazu pan, savory filled buns, to 34th Avenue.

Opening after October 21. Follow @umamikushi for details and updates.

The change is part of a larger story along the avenue. Squarehead West, and Poppie, Smallish Photo Studio’s expansion, were featured in previous issues. Dirkse/Prim Gallery has joined the new live/work spaces north of Spring, and Casa Ella is preparing a café featuring Colombian coffee at 34th and Spring.

Stop in, meet the new owners, and support the shops and cafés that make Madrona our neighborhood. Trick-or-treating on October 31 and the Winter Market on December 10 are two chances to enjoy it together.

Please welcome Two Coats of Paint Resident Artist Kirstin Lamb, who will be here through Friday, October 16!

“Lamb makes labor-intensive paintings built from fields of adjacent and overlapping marks – dots, stitches, pixels. The technique is something like Georges Seurat’s pointillism crossed with Chuck Close’s portrait grids. But whereas Seurat and Close divided observed light into packets of color, Lamb draws photographic source material, including wallpaper, fabrics, and images of forests. She painstakingly transfers these images, first digitizing them into grids on the computer, then translating the studies onto the painting surface, mixing and applying the paint by hand….”

Swipe to see how the installation is coming along.

Open Studio: Wednesday, October 14, 5–7 pm, featuring Kirstin’s work, as well as conversation with studiomate @chris_joy1 (Gorky’s Granddaughter) and Two Coats publisher @sharon_butler

Two Coats of Paint, 22-19 41st Avenue, 6th Floor, Studio #10, Long Island City, NY. For more information or to schedule an individual visit, email staff@twocoatsofpaint.com with STUDIO VISIT in the subject line.

I had a lovely time mixing styles at this classic Queen Anne home. The architect honored the classic structure of the home while incorporating modern cabinetry in other areas. I chose modern and classic finishes with an eclectic mix of furniture, art and decor throughout the home. The artwork from my gallery, @dirkseprimgallery , is by @willbrown.art . Custom rug from my @michelledirksecollection with accessories and this vintage wool blanket from vintage shops across Washington state.
