EDMONDS, Wash. — An exhibition at Cascadia Art Museum in Edmonds shows a never-before-seen side to one of the Northwest's most famous artists. George Tsutakawa is one of Seattle's most storied sculptors. But 'George Tsutakawa: Early Works On Paper' features his watercolors, block prints, and sketches dating back to 1929. "He was one of the great artists here — in fact I think he's one of the great American artists, personally,' said curator David Martin. "People think of his fountains number one, his sculpture number two, his paintings number three, and the early works on paper? Probably not at all.
