Touch of Fall

The touch of fall is coming to the Willamette Valley. Colors are changing, temperatures are getting cooler, a little rain - a great time of year.

Glacier Bay

I recently saw Glacier Bay and it is as amazing as I have always heard. There was plenty of inspiration for a whole series of paintings. One of the photos from the trip is above.

Corvallis Fall Festival

A reminder from a previous post - the Corvallis Fall Festival happens this weekend, Sept 27-28. Check out this year's festival poster by Donna Beverly - on the festival home page.

Northwest Art & Air Festival

Local artists will be giving demonstrations at the Northwest Art & Air Festival (click on the Art tab) in Albany from Friday August 22nd thru Sunday, August 24. Artists include painters Billie and Michael Moore and Diane Widler Wenzel and many others. A number of artists will also have booths at the festival. Other highlights of the festival are the launch of hot air balloons and the "night glow."

Sally B. Bailey Exhibit

Hood River artist, Sally Bills Bailey, has an exhibit of her wonderful, colorful paintings at the Gorge White House thru August.

Caradon Exhibit

I saw a very enjoyable new exhibit today, one that is a collaboration between two artists... on individual paintings. Both artists, Carolee Clark and Donna Beverly, work on each painting and the resulting paintings are surprisingly cohesive as a group. Wonderful colors and design come through.
If you are in the Corvallis (Oregon) area, stop in at the Pegasus Gallery to see the exhibit which runs through August. On August 14, there is a reception at which the artists will talk about the collaborative process.
See examples of the paintings at www.caradonart.com.
