Celebrating new artwork and Cinco de Mayo with Latin Jazz band WEPA!

Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty is pleased to host a series of rotating artists for the monthly Bainbridge Island Art Walk at the “Island Living Gallery”. This month, we are proud to present featured artists Lindsay Peyton and Tessa Poag in partnership with Bruno B. Art Collectif, with live music from WEPA.

Lindsay Peyton paints evocative scenes and portraits, mostly using oil on canvas but also creating dramatic large-format works on arches paper, using either oils or charcoal and gesso. Lindsay is drawn to the passage of time, exploration of place, and ever-presence of memory.

Identifying the allure in people and places around us continues to drive Tessa’s Poag’s painting. Confident in color choice and bold mark-making, her work aims to engage the keen eye we all have for beauty.

WEPA! Is comprised of Malo Castro on Congas, Jaymes Dunlap on Bass, Joe Rice on Piano, and Ian Jones on Saxophone. Malo Castro, was twice voted “Best Percussionist” at the Kitsap County Music Awards, adding the Latin clave and spice to music ensembles throughout the Northwest. With authenticity and musicality, Malo is comfortable playing in musical settings from rock, to jazz to Latin and Brazilian music. Malo leads WEPA, a five-piece band, playing Latin Jazz-New York style.
