Popular local artist BJ Dollahite has generously offered her work for display on the walls of Coho 
Restaurant.
A self-taught artist who lives on San Juan Island full time, she has been on a quest for artistic expression most of her life. Her first creative statements were in Textile and Mixed Media, but after she moved to the Island she discovered her passion in Watercolor Collage.
“What I love about watercolor is that it combines spontaneity with luminous fluidity.” Its exciting to get such a variety of results from a single medium. “The process and where it takes me is always an adventure, and I am never quite sure where it will end up, that’s the fun of it.”
Her paintings are beautiful combinations of layered watercolor rice papers, leafs, and seaweeds. You can see more of her work at Gallery San Juan.
