Serif Shadows, Mia Hocking | 
Mia
 is a long-time Hillsboro resident and has been painting since her high 
school years. She attended the Pacific NW College of Art and also has a 
BS in Business degree. Mia states, "I am focusing on teaching classes in
 the techniques that I use as well as fundamental art workshops." Look 
for future classes at the Sequoia Gallery.
Mia's
 paintings could be categorized as abstract collage with her use of 
papers, inks, pencil, found objects and many other non-traditional 
'painting' materials. Her current work is inspired by objects and 
materials of a rather unglamorous existence and re-gifting it a new life
 as a significant element in the story behind the artwork. You may find 
her joyfully scavenging for materials in the most unlikely places such 
as sidewalks and trash bins. Most of these materials are often found 
after they have been discarded from their original purpose. Mia's Sequoia Gallery show offered pieces in a wide variety of sizes.  Sequoia Gallery + Studios is located at 136 SE 3rd Avenue, Hillsboro, OR 97123.
