2017 Molly Hashimoto: Birds Wall Calendar

Molly Hashimotos clear-eyed scenes of birds in their natural habitats, whether an owl alert in the moonlight or a tiny hummingbird captured in a moment of stillness, reflect an easy closeness to nature. She explores Pacific Northwest wild areas, oases that provide refuge for countless rare species and moments of awakening for millions of human visitors. In addition to her own artistry, Hashimoto is dedicated to connecting people to nature through hands-on art experiences. Camera and sketchbook in hand, she leads aspiring artists out of doors for plein air painting or into a studio for a block-printing or watercolor workshop.
