A boom in galleries makes downtown CdA a visual arts destination

Some people go for the art, taking advantage of the opportunity to talk to featured artists. Others go for the social buzz or an evening out shopping, visiting, dining, and perusing the gallery scene. Known as an artwalk, the emphasis on walking can get lost as these events grow.

Not so in Coeur d’Alene, which seems to be experiencing a renaissance, welcoming new galleries into the fold over the past year. Focused around downtown’s Sherman Avenue and the surrounding streets, Coeur d’Alene ArtWalk has managed to maintain a local feel, totally walkable in a few hours.

Blackwell Gallery (205 Sherman Ave.) was opened in 2012 by partners Mike Bacon, an artist who also exhibits at the gallery, and Bill Wendlandt, who purchased and renovated the historic Blackwell House into the new Blackwell Boutique Hotel.

Blackwell Gallery showcases mostly local, emerging artists, emphasizing modern, original work — no reproduction prints — and low-edition photography.

“If it will fit in the condo with all stainless and concrete floors, overlooking Elliott Bay in Seattle, it will work [at Blackwell Gallery],” says Bacon.

The 500-square-foot gallery space is bright, hip and displays a simultaneous assortment of work from their growing roster of artists, such as the stunning abstractions of Hiromi Okumura.

ArtCoLab (108 N. Fourth St.) brings custom cool to Coeur d’Alene with an innovative shared workspace from partners Scott Lakey aka Dove of Born Invincible Design, and Jeremy Deming aka Jerm of JermDesign.

Look for bright orange walls, bold graphics, one-off bikes and wonderfully outlandish exhibitions like Monsters X Robots (through October). Featuring Lakey, Derming and tattooist/artist Scotty Hankins, the exhibition includes their 15-by-3-foot monster-themed version of The Last Supper. September’s ArtWalk will include the unveiling of a rockabilly monster pin-up girls print series, also through October.

Other new galleries include Art de Vine (1506 Northwest Blvd.) by longtime painter and instructor Barbara Irvine and Edward Gilmore’s resurrection of the failed Spokane Studio 66 in its new CdA location (321 E. Front Ave.).

Extreme Home Makeover / SubM2 + Born Invincible

May 9, 2013

In the fall of 2010 Extreme Makeover Home Edition came to Salem, Oregon to surprise the Oregon School for the Deaf with a new dorm setup and to revamp their haunted house “The Nightmare Factory” that they utilize for an annual fund raiser. The lead builder of which is Rich Duncan Construction of Salem, OR.

Born Invincible, over the span of a week, created visual logos for varied utility items used in The Nightmare Factory including various signage, plaques, graphics and props throughout the week. After major construction finished on the haunted house, producers asked us to take the narrow exit and final scare and transform it into a blacklight lit alley way with graffiti and a brick facade. SubM2 crew, KujoRock, EoS, Kango and Dove of Born Invincible came in to tear it up. Using inspiration and paint, they transformed two 25ft walls into a glowing freak fest, painting along side guest celebrity Rob Zombie. Check out the video produced by EoS of SubM2 above and the full show episode below.

Dove / Born Invincible

April 22, 2013

If there’s one thing that i’ve learned on my 34 years on this earth… it’s that love and passion can take you places you would never expect and help you survive situations that you would never put yourself in. Art is one of those things that I love, it is my passion and in its pursuit has taken me to places that have transformed my life. I’ve met and worked with amazing people, and seen and done things that have inspired me to seek a higher cause and live for a purpose.

My daily dose of inspiration comes from my two children Zachariah and Zoey. They are the light of my life and the most amazing kids a Dad could ever ask for. As I grow every day so does my passion for art, design, and the love for my family. God’s inspiration is in all that I do and it’s all for his glory.

One Love!

Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, handsome, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some; it is in everyone. And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
