Meet Xochi Hughes Madera email: xochi@centurytel.net

I meet Xochi the weekend of the Art Festival in downtown Gig Harbor. Xochi was the featured demonstration artist for the Birdnest Art Gallery. I found her to be a very playful, wonderful spirit on this earth. "My paintings are the mirror of how I see and feel nature. Painting allows me to live my life out loud!"

Xochi uses recycled kitchen cabinet doors as her canvas in some of her paintings.

You will enjoy trees and wondering paths and the beautiful colors of nature when you visit with Xochi's paintings.

Enjoy Xochi's work at the Birdnest Art Gallery in downtown Gig Harbor.
