Margaret Woodcock and Mitchel Osborne will be the featured artists at the Port Townsend Gallery in September.

Woodcock works in collage and printmaking, combining landscape photos with bird imagery, text, music, botanical illustrations, maps, and graphic charts for her artwork.

She also creates digital collages that she turns into etchings via photopolymer plates that are printed along with a chine collé color layer using a traditional hand-printing press at Corvidae Press in Fort Worden.

The gallery will also feature photographic works by Osborne this month.

He is a professional photographer who has been a contributor to international travel guides, travel magazines, books and major editorial publications. Osborne has concentrated on the travel industry extensively photographing locations worldwide.

A former 30-year resident of New Orleans, he was drawn to maritime subjects originally by steamboats on the Mississippi River.

After moving to Port Townsend, Osborne discovered a new appeal in the beauty, craftsmanship, and preservation of the boats in the historic town. The gallery will show his photos that explore the fusion of colors, water, and boat details. The September show features his signature reflection series and boats in Port Townsend’s Wooden Boat Festival.

The Port Townsend Gallery is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is located at 715 Water St. The gallery is also open by appointment.
