Untitled - Camano Island Studio Tour

Welcome to the 17th annual Camano Island Studio Tour
The 43 artists, 30 studios and 3 galleries on this year’s tour are thrilled that
you have chosen to experience art with us this weekend.
The Camano Island Studio Tour is one of the oldest free self-guided tours
in the Pacific Northwest and features highly accomplished juried artists
practicing in diverse mediums.
This year’s cover artist, John Ebner, is one of the most prolific painters on the
tour whose water colors are collected nationally. Whether you are inspired by
paint, glass, wood, fabric or photography, we hear from veteran tour visitors
every year that they always find something new that reconnects them with
their love for art.
Our featured artist, Karla Matzke, is a founder of the Studio Tour and her
Matzke Fine Art Gallery and Sculpture Park has been a destination for years.
Matzke features both an outdoor sculpture park and an eclectic collection of
art from world-renowned artists. She also spotlights top local talent, including
her own stunning pastel work.
Be inspired by the art. Take some time to take in the natural beauty of our
island. Visit our sponsors and enjoy the hospitality of our local shops. Make
memories.
We look forward to opening our studios and homes to you and sharing our
passion for art.

2015 C.A.A. Cover Artist
John Ebner
One of the few remaining
founding members of Camano
Arts Association, John Ebner’s
iconic Camano Island scene,
sailboats set in a lush watery
landscape, was selected for
the cover of this year’s guide.
It’s the water that makes John
Ebner’s watercolor paintings
his own: The mists of the
Pacific Northwest hover over
Saratoga Passage, Deception
Pass, many different waterfalls
and mountain tops, and people walking in the rain. It’s the subtle, rich colors that
surround him, and the mood of the Northwest, that he strives to reflect in his paintings.
Maybe because he was born in Sublimity, Oregon, Ebner’s sublime images inspire awe
of this part of the world and beyond, from Admiralty Head to Provence, France.
While most of his paintings are seascapes and landscapes, he does bust out now
and then to paint a flower or a door, or a market at the tulip festival. Ebner studied
advertising art in Portland, then worked in sales and marketing for Hunter Douglas
window coverings.
His wife Paula launched his second career in painting by signing him up for a watercolor
class in 1973. When they arrived on Camano Island in 1998 he had signed up with
Hadley House, a national publisher of fine art, and was showing his original work at
Kenneth Behm Galleries and at the granddaddy of Northwest art shows, then known as
Bellevue Arts Fair. Before long, he realized he should publish his own work, and now
offers many of his images as limited edition lithographs and giclee prints.
In recent years he has started reproducing his art on aluminum, giving a more
contemporary art look, and he’s also offering big format prints with touches of original
paint. When John is not painting watercolors, he might be experimenting with acrylics,
pastels, alcohol ink or landscaping. An outdoor extension of his creativity, his elaborate
yard on the top of the Northwest corner of Camano features his very own waterfalls,
collages of rocks, shrubs and flowers with sculptures hidden here and there, all framed
by a Japanese style Tori gate and roman columns.
During the studio tour, Ebner welcomes visitors to explore his gardens, as well as his
working studio. He likes to say, “When you buy a John Ebner painting, you not only buy
a painting but the peace and tranquility of the Pacific Northwest.”

2015 C.A.A. Featured Artist
Matzke Fine Art Gallery
Matzke Fine Art Gallery features fine art exhibits surrounded by a ten acre sculpture
park under a natural temperate canopy. It’s a place for artist workshops and classes,
indoors or outdoors, and a designated place for art lovers to view or purchase fine art
year round. With changing exhibits every six weeks, we are committed to representing
the best and the brightest talent from the Pacific Northwest, and the United States.
Over 80 emerging, mid-career, and established artists including Phillip Levine, Hiroshi
Yamano, Tracy Powell, Kevin Pettelle, Betty and Russell Frost are on exhibition at the
Gallery and Sculpture Park. Our goal is connecting artists and collectors through our
special events, exhibits, art production, and art education programs. Nestled among
evergreen trees, the gallery and sculpture park currently exhibits 75 sculptures of
artists whose works are of world-class significance. We thoughtfully designed the ten
acres, leaving much of the natural flora of the Northwest. Sculptures by prominent
and emerging American and international artists, utilize bronze, stainless steel, stone,
wood and glass.
