Meg Holgate's dreamlike paintings seem to gaze back at you. The abstract landscapes are mildly unsettling but also compelling. 'I want viewers to focus on the beauty, because that's what we are at risk of losing,' Holgate said of the work she created for 'A Precarious Edge.' The Schack Art Center exhibit focuses on climate change, and also features the work of Holgate's friend and fellow La Conner artist Steve Klein. The downtown Everett show, which runs through June 3, opened Saturday with tours and a reception from 2-4:30 p.
