Todd Horton Art Opening

The Paperdoll Gallery Presents Todd J. Horton
Gallery Showcase: November 6 - December 3, 2009
Opening Reception: November 6, 6-10PM (Downtown Gallery Walk)

The Paperdoll is proud to present “Ten Beavers”, a new collection of paintings by Todd J. Horton.

Known for his ability to capture elusive movements in nature, Horton sets animals into motion, suspending time itself. In his Paperdoll debut, Horton’s newest collection features paintings which focus on discovering the hidden beavers of downtown Bellingham, revealing glimpses of the shadows in the lives they lead.

Born into an artistically inclined household, Horton was born and raised in a village located next to one of our nation’s largest biological/chemical warfare research facilities in London, Ohio. After a stint in the armed forces, Horton returned to begin his studies at Ohio University in South Eastern Ohio. There his educational focus shifted from traditional studies to beer, art history, women and sculpture. His art, “education” and wanderlust led him to all corners of the world where he illustrated children’s books in South Korea, taught English and Art in Hungary, exhibited works in “Art Forum Berlin 2002” and even owned and operated a successful gallery and cafĂ© in Columbus, Ohio. But, as luck would have it Horton found his way to Bellingham where in his words he found a ” very special and exceedingly rare place(s) (especially in the U.S.A.), where several important ingredients for the good life come together in one spot.”

Todd J. Horton’s gallery showcase will remain on display at The Paperdoll throughout the month of November. For additional information regarding the showcase, or for more detail on the work of Todd J. Horton, please contact The Paperdoll @ 360-738-DOLL(3655) or visit www.thepaperdoll.com

Jess Flegel for The Paperdoll September 2009

The Paperdoll is proud to present “By and By”, a new collection of collage work by multi-media artist Jess Flegel.

Flegel’s Paperdoll debut "By and By" features over 35 small hand stitched paper and mixed media collage pieces. Stamps from her childhood collection, traditional quilting textiles, as well as scenery and photographs from her native Chicago and current home Bellingham are presented like postcards from Flegel's life. Her work, though deeply personal, inspires a search for a sense of place that is something we can all relate to.

Born and raised outside of Chicago, Illinois, Flegel received her BFA at Judson University. After graduating, Flegal relocated to Bellingham, where she has been living and working for the past six years. Much of Flegel's work is inspired by looking back at her roots, geographically, as well as through family traditions. These inspirations are prominent in her most recent collection.


Please join us for the Opening Reception this Friday, September 4, 2009 from 6-10PM(During the Downtown Gallery Walk) Live music, refreshments and artist meet and greet to accompany opening!

can't wait to see you there!

Tal Connor for The Paperdoll

MashUp, a collection of small drawings
and wall sculptures by Bellingham artist
Tal Connor will be on display through
the month of August at The Paperdoll
Boutique and Gallery. Connor describes his showcase as a response
to our culture of overlapping information
and entertainment similar to a “mashup ”
in music , a layering of unique vocal and
instrumental tracks combined to create a
whole new sound. This technique is used
masterfully by Connor in his Paperdoll
debut.; a mash-up of many inspirations.

Looking forward to seeing all your lovely faces this Friday for Tal's opening reception at the shop from 6-10pm!
