November Featured Artists: Reid Trevarthen & Corrin Lee
Reid Trevarthen’s artist bio:
I often say that my secret dream is to be an impressionist painter. I’m specifically fascinated by the way in which artists like Monet and Degas used light and color to not only depict their subjects, but enhance them. Their works make me feel like am actually seeing the world through their eyes, unaltered by time. These pieces are my best effort to mimic the qualities I find so evocative in their paintings using paper instead of paint.Before this body of work, I hadn’t yet attempted to use a realistic color palette in my work, under the assumption that it would take too long to hunt for just the right shade and color. Once I tried, however, I realized that using magazines that photograph reality means that I had far more realistic colors available than saturated magentas and reds. I also discovered that I only to had to approximate true color, in the same way that the Impressionists did, to achieve the degree of realism I wanted. Even the process of making these collages feels like painting.
Recently, I have been incorporating more traditional collage elements, such as inserting whole images straight from the magazine into my work. This allows me to inject humor into the pieces, and encourages impulsive choices. Including these images helps ground the work in the medium of collage, and keeps me from becoming too habitual in my process. I am excited to see what will change in my art over the next year.

October Featured Artists: Mike Stevens and Courtney Landrus
About Michael Stevens: 7 years ago, Michael Stevens met the love of his life, and in that time was introduced by her to many new mediums of art, one of those mediums he struggled most to perfect. So, instead of perfecting his craft, he decided to rather release his horrible, ugly, fragile monstrous clay sculptures upon the world in all of their imperfect beauty. Monstrous faces are the true feelings and emotions that embodied his many moods and characteristics throughout his life. A spectacle that shows…Some of us have more demons than others. Check out Michael’s Monstrous Faces here.
Courtney Landrus is a tattoo artist in Washington state who also specializes in watercolor paintings. Learning to paint in this medium was her first step into the world of tattoo art. Her best work happens when her minds eye, hands, and her soul come together on paper to portray even the small and ordinary details of life as beautiful and exquisitely unique. She enjoys creating art in a lifted and positive state of being and has a gift of capturing the world around her through her art; sharing this gift with others is her ultimate purpose as an artist. The psychology of the human mind and the beauty that is created from our brains is a source of endless fascination for her and she hopes to lift others to see the light in this world not just as an artist but as a person living in it. Courtney is originally from Spokane, Washington and now lives in Portland, Oregon with her daughter Sailor.
Find out more about Courtney by visiting her Facebook page.

History of Cannabis as Medicine
Cannabis has long been used as a medicine in Asian, African and South American countries. The first evidence of the medicinal use of cannabis is in an herbal published during the reign of the Chinese Emperor Chen Nung 5000 years ago. It was recommended for malaria, constipation, rheumatic pains, ‘absentmindedness’ and ‘female disorders’. I’m neither a doctor nor female, but I’ve lived with both and can confirm with anecdotal evidence that cannabis can be used to treat ‘female disorders’, so Chen Nung was definitely onto something 5000 years ago.
According to “History of Cannabis as a Medicine” by Lester Grinspoon, M.D., in India cannabis has been recommended to quicken the mind, lower fevers, induce sleep, cure dysentery, stimulate appetite, improve digestion, relieve headaches, and cure venereal disease. I’m still not a doctor but that last part doesn’t sound right to me, but I don’t know enough about venereal disease to dispute it.
In the West cannabis did not come into its own as a medicine until the mid-nineteenth century. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, numerous papers were published in Western medical journals recommending it for various illnesses and discomforts. Although during that time period they were also recommending opium and cocaine to treat a wide variety of illness, like the common cold.
In the past 100 years we’ve seen the prohibition and resurgence of medical marijuana in the United States.
· 1914 – Drug use, under the Harrison Act, is officially declared a crime.
· 1937 – By now, 23 states have outlawed marijuana. The government also passes the “Marihuana Tax Act”, making the use of non-medical marijuana illegal. Cannabis was still used in various medical treatments, albeit in controlled forms.
· 1970 – Marijuana was categorized as a Schedule I drug along with more dangerous ones, and was listed as having no accepted medical use. Despite the fact that some early American medical journals had begun listing the medical uses of cannabis, the government restricted any further research.
· 1985 – Marinol, the only US FDA-approved pharmaceutical is introduced and classified as a Schedule II controlled substance.
· 1996 – Patients and advocates turned to the state level for access, passing voter initiatives in California and Arizona that allowed for legal use of cannabis with a doctor’s recommendation. These victories were followed by the passage of similar initiatives in Alaska, Colorado, Maine, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, and Washington D.C.
· 1999 – Marinol downgraded to a Schedule III controlled substance. Yet cannabis in its natural flower form still remains a Schedule I drug for the foreseeable future.
As of 2017, cannabis still remains a Schedule I drug; along with MDMA, LSD, peyote, quaaludes and heroin these drugs are defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. In August 2017 however, the FDA has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to MDMA for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder).
WASHINGTON STATE QUALIFYING CONDITIONS
Qualifying conditions to become a medical marijuana patient in Washington include:
· Cancer
· HIV/AIDS
· Multiple sclerosis
· Epilepsy or other seizure disorder
· Spasticity disorders
· Intractable pain
· Glaucoma
· Crohn’s disease
· Hepatitis C
· Diseases, including anorexia, which result in nausea, vomiting, wasting, appetite loss, cramping, seizures, muscle spasms, or spasticity
· Chronic renal failure requiring dialysis
· Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
· Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Due to a lack of scientific evidence supporting improved health outcomes from the use of medical marijuana for mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder, depression and anxiety, the Medical Quality Assurance Commission denied requests to add to the list of qualifying conditions. For more information please visit the WA Department of Health and Services.

July 2017 Featured Artist: Pop Octopus / Chris Stevens
Pop Octopus is an extension of a brain warped by growing up on too much science fiction, monster movies and comic books. He’s not searching for truth or making a statement about the nature of man, he makes the pretty eye candy that goes POP! All of his work is hand screenprinted and painted right here in Vancouver Washington, walking distance from where you’re standing at this moment in time and space.
All of Steven’s work is made from a place of love for the subject matter in the painting. Stevens makes it because it’s in his head waiting to get out. He’s been selling his wares in one form or another in this corner of the great Pacific Northwest for the past ten years or so. Stevens is a native to this fine corner of the country and love this place and all of the beauty in it.
Call it fan art, call it pop art, call it what you will, Stevens just hopes you enjoy looking at it as much as he enjoys making it. Pop Octopus is open to commission work as well as retailing in stores.

Sex and Cannabis 101
Its only natural that with the proliferation of legalized cannabis that it would find its way into our bedroom. Sex is great, but have you tried it ooooon weeeeed!? For many people, part of the appeal of marijuana is its rumored aphrodisiac-like qualities. Despite the fact that this substance has the ability to enhance mood and reduce inhibitions, much in the way that alcohol does, it may also have some undesired effects on a person’s libido, perhaps depending on amount taken and strain ingested. High Times has a top 10 list of strains that will get your blood flowing for your horizontal activities, which seem to be a rather even number of sativa and indica strains, even including some hybrids, although I have always felt that sativa dominant strains seem to suit me better (but I’m not a scientist, just a connoisseur). Otherwise I might get locked into a Netflix binge instead of a Netflix and chill binge.
Another secondary benefit of enjoying time with your significant other after having smoked or ingested cannabis is increased stamina. Who doesn’t want to last longer in bed? You become the superman of sexual partners when you introduce weed into the picture. According to a study cited on About, 75% of participants reported an increase in the duration of their sexual encounters when they smoked weed beforehand. Although I will add that I personally sometimes just forget what I’m doing while I’m high and zone out, so that might help with the stamina issues. Either way it’s a plus! But it isn’t just beneficial for men. Women are even more likely than men to report enhanced sexual desire with marijuana use. In one study, 90% of women reported that marijuana increased feelings of sexual pleasure and satisfaction to varying degrees, and 40% of women reported that marijuana increased the quality of their orgasm.
In addition to smoking or ingesting cannabis, there are also products like Bond Sensual Oil by our trusted partners, Washington based botanicaSEATTLE, that offer another dimension of bedroom fun, in the form of cannabis oils, specifically meant for vaginas. Sadly, I don’t have a vagina; otherwise I would have gladly given a first-hand testimonial account of the mind blowing effects of these products. Bond sensual oil is made from extracted cannabis oil and coconut oil. Meant for application in and around the clitoris, inner and outer labia as well as internally. However be warned that all of these sensual cannabis products are oil based, so DO NOT use them with condoms that are latex based. What will it feel like? Some women will experience feelings of enhanced warmth, tingling, and relaxation; some feel an ‘urgency’ and a feeling of fullness; while others have found it easier to reach orgasm or even have multiple orgasms. While using BOND it is not unusual to have longer and more intense orgasms. Check out these real BOND testimonials here, and pick up BOND next time you visit High End Market Place.

Our store is truly Vancouver’s one stop for the best Cannabis Dispensary.
