I am an artist, writer, director, actor, and arts educator based in the Pacific Northwest. I am also the Founding Co-Artistic Director of Book-It Repertory Theatre.
Born and raised in Colorado, I learned early on to appreciate and value the beauty of the natural environment, world cultures, and the fine arts. My father, Walter Blakelock Wilson, was a professional artist and taught me to paint when I was young. I studied painting, music, literature and theater performance at Northwestern University earning my degree in Performance Studies and the Art of Interpretation of Literature. I continued to explore working and studying art, music and theater in NYC, Santa Fe and back home in Colorado Springs before moving to Seattle in 1988 where I built a career in theater and arts education. I am currently focused on painting landscapes, writing a novel about my ancestors, developing a new play, and teaching Youth and Theater as a Guest Lecturer at the University of Washington's School of Drama. I live on Whidbey Island with my husband singer-songwriter Dave Ellis and our dog Luna.

Summer 2024
An on-going series of paintings that look up and through trees, where there is a light breeze and ample space, inviting us all to take a breath, reset any troubled thoughts and reinvigorate elation. Exploring the relationship of the tops of trees to the air and the interplay with the clouds and birds that continually swirl around them.

December 2023
My friends Mikal Donnelly and Britt McKenzie are like-minded, fiercely curious women who see art as a necessary playground to promote joy and peace. They joined me in creating this show of smaller scale work to light up the imagination. Whidbey Island artist Britt McKenzie creates new designs while brazenly teaching herself the process of reduction block printing. While West Seattle artist Mikal Donnelly daringly explores the use of color, pattern and meditative repetition in fabric and mixed media. And my acrylic paintings feature seasonal studies of snow, trees, bugs, birds and fungi.

mother / tree
*
October 2023
A series of paintings featuring the critical relationship of trees with humans, mother/tree explores how we seek intentional connection and communication with our environment in the same ways we do with one another. When we walk through a forest we silently share our burdens, shed our inhibitions, and outwardly express our joys to the trees around us. In turn, they inspire our sense of wonder and awe.
*
mother / tree asks that we see trees in a more personal way by admiring their individual and collective character and acknowledging their ancient wisdom. The show urges us to reflect about the health of our own local, natural forests, share in educational resources and discussion addressing how we can better protect, respect, and support trees for the sake of all our survival.
