MY JOURNAL: Exhibits at Rogue Gallery & Art Center, Porter's and Good Bean Coffee Company in Jacksonville



Winding down 2011 was an eventful time for me!  I had been teaching a series of watercolor classes for a delightfully energetic group of painters!  We ended the summer with an art show, "Six Artists Who Love To Paint" which was a very successful event.  I looked forward to a bit of time off from my art activities and planned to spend lots of quality time with my family but at the same time participate in the Member's Invitational Exhibit at The Rogue Gallery & Art Center which was called "Smaller Than A Breadbox".  Members were asked to paint a new painting with food as the subject.  I painted a still life with onions and garlic (two ingredients that find their way into most of my favorite recipes).  The painting below called, "Distant Cousins" is the result.

The month of January has been a very busy month for me too!   Actually, it beganin December as I prepared for January's activities.  I picked up a blank canvas from Porter's in order to participate in their 2nd annual "Impressions Of The Depot" invitational exhibit.  Fifty artists were invited to participate by once again creating a painting of their impressions of The Depot.  The canvas panels are a uniform size, 12" x 12" x 1"  and the artist can use any medium or combination of mediums to complete their piece.  I chose acrylics to work with this time.  This entry is entitled:  "Two For Dinner" and is number 24 on the Porter's ballot!  I hope you will like it enough to vote for me.... often!  You can vote each time to visit Porter's for the next three months!   There are 36 entries in this invitational show.  Each one is unique and special and you will see that the artist's have had lots of fun with their "impressions".

On December 30th I mounted a collection of 14 en plein air paintings at the wonderful exhibit space in The Good Bean Coffee Company in Jacksonville, Oregon.  The show is curated by Hannah West of Southern Oregon Artists Resources  (SOAR.Com).  On January 20th we held an artist's coffee/reception for that exhibit and was I pleased to see so many of my friends come out on a very rainy afternoon for the event.  The show will be there until January 30th. A friend and I will pick them up and relocate them back into my studio/gallery space in my home.
I just heard from one couple who saw the exhibit & is interested in a purchase.  Negotiations have begun!  You are welcome to drop in anytime to see my paintings if you are interested!

GALLERY & STUDIO SALES

My Gallery/ Studio is in my home and I am fairly successful in selling my work by having an open house studio/gallery reception about twice a year (one in the Summer and one in early winter.) I find it fun to do and usually set a three hour time for the gallery sale to run. I serve wine and cheeses and spend a lot of time visiting with my friends and neighbors. (Sixteen of my paintings sold in my last sale during a three hour time period!)

Let me know if you'd like to be on my invitation list.
