The event is the organization’s largest fundraiser of the year, helping to support year-round art and music education programming for the Sisters community and beyond with The Americana Project educational outreach program at Sisters High School, summer creativity camps at Sisters Art Works, Americana Song Academy held at the House on Metolius and more.

TRADITION LIVES: Find peace and healing in the profound depiction of the waters and lands of the West, as well as vineyards, koi, florals, fantasy and figures in the art of Contemporary Realist David Kreitzer. In the tradition of Turner and Cezanne, painter David’s love of nature, fantasy and the human form, propels him to create exquisitely detailed, mood-invoking landscapes, figures and striking still life floral studies in a variety of mediums. A full time artist for 55 years, David’s career began with sold out shows at Maxwell Gallery in San Francisco. David grew up as the son of a Lutheran minister who, due to his vocation, moved his family frequently throughout the Nebraska countryside. Kreitzers’ works are in the collections of Howard and Roberta Ahmanson, Hirschhorn Foundation, Revlon Coporation, Olga Corporation, Barnes-Hind Corporation, Sinclair Paints, Lloyd’s Bank, Cargill Corporation and the San Diego, Santa Barbara, Nebraska and Minnesota Museums. Private collectors include Ray Bradbury, Mary Tyler Moore, Michael Douglas, Pepe Romero, Quinn Martin, Raymond Burr and Robert and Linda Takken.
Layor Art + Supply 1000 NW Wall St., Ste. 110 Layorlayorart.com541-322-0421Artis excited to be hosting the Plein Air Painters of Oregon (PAPO) for the month of September. Plein Air Painters of Oregon was established as a nonprofit organization in July of 2003. The purpose of PAPO is to share a love of outdoor painting in Oregon with like-minded people. This is accomplished by providing an organized environment for dedicated painters — both professional and emerging — to participate in regularly scheduled group paint outs around the state. Plein air painting comes from the word “open air” in French, meaning the entire painting is conceived and executed on location. For centuries artists have been painting en plein air primarily using this method as a source for larger studio landscapes. Come out and join us at Layor Art to view and celebrate the works of the many PAPO members that live and paint here in our Central Oregon community. The Show goes thru the month of September and can be viewed during Layor’s regular business hours: Monday through Friday 10am-5pm, Saturday 11am-4pm, and Sunday 12-4pm. Learn more about PAPO at pleinairpaintersoforegon.org.

“My desire to record the beauty I felt and saw lured me back to painting, and at the same time I discovered pastel painting. This was new and exciting, and I fell in love with pastel’s brilliant colors and immediacy of application. A landscape that had filled me with joy, I could now create with pastels. Now, as each painting emerges, I’m grateful for the feeling of being immersed once again in the magic of these places.”
Kevin Courter’s paintings of the West reflect the awesome and inspiring beauty that can be found in nature.

In Jan’s own words: “Growing up in San Diego, Calif. the highlight of every year was camping trips to isolated, gorgeous wild places. We journeyed to massive mountain ranges in the summer, and the vast Sonoran desert where the Colorado River flows wide and slow in fall and spring. At a very early age, these landscapes thrilled and enchanted me, and later became the driving force behind my painting.
“Graduating with both a Fine Art degree and teaching degree, it was necessary to begin teaching full time right away. It wasn’t until retiring in 2007 that I found the time and energy to paint. By then my husband and I had moved to Bend, and I found myself with time to immerse myself in the magic of the Cascades and its high lakes.

“Taking precious images gathered in nature, then wielding the digital world of ‘paints’ and layers, those images transform into a world of my making. Most of my art is at least a half dozen, often twenty to one hundred, layers of my images blended to a finished piece. Having the option to print on metal, archival linen or canvas, nearly any size, is another luxury that digital can afford.”

Canyon Arts Association invite you to see the vibrant mixed media abstract art of artist Vance Perry and over 20 other artists during First Friday Art Walk on September 2 from 4-7pm. Vance is open to any and all of the techniques he has learned over the years as he works on abstract pieces. Starting with composition, he may make a line or a squiggle, a block of color or brushstokes of many colors. He looks for possibilities of compliments, areas of light to dark, thin lines, big lines, all with the idea the painting will begin to talk to him. Responding to what begins to happen on the surface, he will adjust, change, move, cover… sometimes scrape and leave the underlying color showing. “At some point, it tells me I’m done. It starts with an open mind, proceeds with choices and ends with a piece that is complete. It told me so.”
icola Carpinelli, the driving force behind Hearts Unknown Education, a wellness program that utilizes creative expression to combat mental health issues in adolescents, formed the program because of his own experience with both depression and art. Born in the U.S. but educated abroad, Nicola was bullied from a young age, mostly due to being raised in a household that was culturally different from his peers, “Everyone around me was raised in a more traditional American household,” Nicola said. “I was raised in a household with more European values.”
N
The bullying was so severe that thoughts of suicide entered his 12-year-old mind, but artistic expression helped him recover. “It was art that came and saved me,” he said. “Art that brought me out and allowed me to express what I was feeling and connect with the other kids that didn’t think I was too cool.”

Hearts Unknown Education Aims to Help Children Express Trauma

“Everywhere I go, I take this passion with me. I communicate it with my art and by sharing art, and when people see that passion for an issue as serious as this one, everyone wants to get involved,” Nicola said. “The hard part is not stretching ourselves too thin, to ensure we can really help those in need, when they need it,” Bruce added.
While Nicola has an ambitious vision for the future of HUE, he admits that the business side of things is not his forte. For that side, he trusts former Bend City mayor and current grant writer for the Bend-La Pine School District Bruce“FunnyAbernathy.enough, I’ve never considered myself very into art. As a perfectionist, it can stress me out,” Bruce said. “But I do have two daughters who are artistic themselves, and I see how it can positively impact kids. Nicola and I balance each other out; he’s the artistic passion, and I’m the organization.”
In 2019, the nonprofit held their first Dead Poets Exhibit here in Bend. The exhibit included paintings of author Ernest Hemingway, his granddaughter Margaux Hemingway, musician Kurt Cobain and travel journalist Anthony Bourdain, among others. “The Anthony Bourdain painting started it all,” Nicola said. “That was the first one.”
In short, you can think of Nicola as the kind of man who draws outside the lines, while Bruce helps him stay in the lines, when he thinks it will help HUE accomplish their goals. Both Bruce and Nicola love Bend for the idyllic mountain town it is, but they also acknowledge that our high suicide rate is extremely concerning. “For a town our size, we actually have very high rates of suicide,” Nicola said. “And during the pandemic, it only got worse.” While the rates of diagnosed depression in teens only rose by a few percent from pre-pandemic rates, that small percent increase amounts to thousands upon thousands more children facing depression than ever before.
The Dead Poets Foundation, with the help of the community, will surely become a positive force for mental health in Bend and Central Oregon. With plans to expand in the future and possibly share this model with other nonprofits, Nicola and Bruce hope to see their efforts continue to grow and assist those in our community who really need it. deadpoetsfoundation.org/hue
ARTS Hearts Unknown Education, or HUE for short, is a program offered by the Dead Poets Foundation, which was founded in 2019 by Mariel Hemingway, an actress, best-selling writer and social advocate; Nicola Carpinelli, the renowned artist, entrepreneur and humanitarian; and Dr. Howard Asher, one of the nation’s leading trauma specialists, author and lecturer. Together, the Dead Poets Foundation has pushed for more suicide awareness through the use of art exhibits that specifically feature historical figures who took their own lives.
Oregon’s Only Arts Magazine Since 1995 | September 2022 13
Now, the Dead Poets Foundation is fighting suicide and other mental health issues in our community by giving children a chance to express themselves through art, which is the main purpose of HUE. “In the program, kids can express themselves as freely as they want to. They are rather uninhibited, and very creative in their methods,” Nicola said. “Sometimes kids need to express a feeling that they don’t know how to verbally articulate, and that is where HUE comes in.”
At the end of the day, Nicola’s goal for HUE and the Dead Poets Foundation is to grow with the help of the community. Nicola’s aim is for community members of all ages and backgrounds to come together to combat suicide in our community, in any way they can. A perfect example of this would be the fact that, during our interview together, a woman who teaches art at COCC approached our table and offered to volunteer for HUE, just because she overheard the conversation between Nicola and I. Nicola also recalls buying art supplies locally, and when other customers heard his mission and what the art supplies were going to be used for, these strangers began to offer him cash donations to help purchase the supplies.
Nicola’s background with art and his own mental health issues drives him to try to fix Bend’s suicide problem. Mariel became a social advocate for mental health when it struck her family, and Dr. Howard was brought to the team to assist from a medical perspective and ensure that the program does all it can, while leaving the more severe mental health needs to the medical professionals.

Artists find Inspiration & Connection at Pine Meadow Ranch by NOAH NELSON — A&E Feature Writer
The ranch is run by the Roundhouse Foundation, which is an organization that helps artists across the world find inspiration and connection, both to each other and the land they occupy. According to the foundation’s mission statement, “We support programs that inspire creativity and connect people with each other and their sense of place to ensure sustainability and economic success for Oregon’s rural communities.”

W hen arriving on the 260-acre Pine Meadow Ranch property in Sisters, it is difficult to not immediately become awestruck. The ranch offers clear views of the nearby, towering Cascade Mountain Range, snowcapped peaks and all. At the mountain’s base extends a thick forest of ponderosa pines that gives way to a vast open meadow that the fully working ranch dedicates to regenerative agricultural practices. Unlike other ranches in the area, the main practice of Pine Meadow Ranch is not just agriculture. Sure, plenty of that takes place in this beautiful area, but the ranch is actually home to an incredible opportunity for artists: an artist residency.
The Roundhouse Foundation was founded in 2002 as a collaboration between the founder, Kathy Deggendorfer and her mother, Gert Boyle, and has always had the vision to support the creative community of Central Oregon and beyond. In 2005, the foundation funded a study that declared
ARTS Oregon’s Only Arts Magazine Since 1995 | September 2022 15
The focal point of the ranch is a massive, 25-foot mosaic mural made from seven individual panels. The idea for the mural came from Kathy meeting another mosaic artist and the owner of Wild Rose Artworks, Rochelle RoseSchueler, at a Christmas party. They both shared stories about the projects they were each working on and connected over a love of art. The idea of using recycled and reused tile came up, which inspired the mosaic at the ranch. Rochelle then involved Lynn Adamo for the design of the mural.
roundhousefoundation.org/pine-meadow-ranch
In the future, Kathy hopes to expand operations to allow more artists to stay at the ranch at one time. For the four weeks an artist stays at the ranch, Kathy wants to expand on what classes and opportunities are available, and possibly even offer a stipend to each artist, to help make this experience as accessible to everyone as possible, so long as they show dedication and experience in their respectiveRegardlesscraft.of where the future leads Pine Meadow Ranch and the Roundhouse Foundation, it is clear that they will be a positive force for art and on the greater Central Oregon community for years to come.
The finished mural is a stunning work of art that catches the eye of anyone driving up to the front office, where it is positioned proudly for all to see. The iconography was inspired by the ranch and the land itself; the middle three tiles depict a geometric pattern found in a historic round barn that sits nearby, while the outer four panels depict the burbling waters and smooth stones of the nearby Whychus Creek. Many of the tiles themselves are recycled and reused pieces. To finish the project, Lynn and Rochelle held an open call and selected the help of Brenda Gratton, Kellie Hoyt and Line Bergene, three other experienced mosaic artists, to finish the mural. These three artists made up the 2022 mosaic artist residency, and were able to not only learn from Kathy and Rochelle, but also share with them some techniques and knowledge of their own. This is the logic of the artist residency at Pine Meadow Ranch; to create artwork with a sense of place and responsibility for the land it resides on, while also allowing artists the chance to escape everyday life, find inspiration and achieve their goals.
When I personally visited the ranch, Ana Varas, the arts projects coordinator, was kind enough to guide me around to visit different artists, pieces of art and important sites. We drove down a long gravel road with views of the Cascade Peaks on my left and historic building after building on my right. We met with an artist in residency who was cleaning and creating molds out of animal bones that had been found on the property, as well as another artist who focused more on drawing and sketching with tons of black on white paper, which yielded a heavy contrast. I was even lucky enough to meet honorary staff member and barn cat Watson, who decided it was the perfect time to lay in the middle of the gravel road and bask in the sun.
Sisters needed support for local artists and galleries to help increase sales by bringing more buyers. By 2016, the goals of the foundation had shifted to meet the needs of the community. The foundation sent 30 artists on varying art residencies across the nation, with the goal of building one right here in Sisters. The following year, the foundation acquired Pine Meadow Ranch for their base of operations.
The entire experience, from the wonderfully intelligent staff, dedicated artists and even the lounging Watson taught me that Pine Meadow Ranch is a place where creativity and inspiration flow like the waters of Whychus Creek. Many future creatives who will beautify Sisters and Central Oregon as well as establish themselves as experienced artists and masters of their craft will come from Pine Meadow Ranch, thanks to the long-term vision held by Kathy and her late mother.
Among the paintings on display are her images of the Fort Rock Natural Area. “Visiting Fort Rock is such a unique experience,” says Frost. “There is a sense of mystery and timelessness there that is very captivating. For these paintings, I wanted to capture how this huge volcanic rock formation appears seemingly out of nowhere, set against an intensely blue sky. From its dominant position in the desert landscape that was once a lake, you can see miles into the distance.”

Encaustic
ARTS
Encaustic artist Janice Rhodes drives to her studio, a converted garage near the First Street Rapids Bridge on the Deschutes River. She turns on her slow cooker to heat the wax that is the principal medium for her art and then takes a walk along the river while it is heating. She opens the garage door and watches while some of the neighborhood bees fly in to investigate the smell of melting wax. Then she begins to paint with a combination of pigments and wax. Rhodes’ work is showcased in September and October at Red Chair Gallery. Encaustic is an ancient expertise originated by the ancient Egyptians (around 100-300 B.C.) who created waxen portrait masks of the deceased affixed to their mummy cases. It is an art that is relatively unknown today, even though modern artists such as Jasper Johns and Mark Rothko used the technique to create some of their abstract paintings. Encaustic painting entails heating beeswax mixed with damar resin to about 200 degrees and then blending it with oil-based pigments. Rhodes fuses the various layers of the mixture with a heat gun. The viscous nature of the medium gives it more depth and texture than other types of painting. Its thickness and viscosity allow the artist to sculpt it, collage other materials into it, scrape it, and carve it with tools such as spatulas or knives. The nature of the medium makes it both rewarding and complicated, Rhodes notes. “Heated wax is so changeable and you have to make certain decisions while it’s still malleable,” she says. Finishing a piece makes the artist “feel like you’ve been challenged. It’s so exciting and fulfilling to have it work out.”
Rhodes became well known as a local artist after she joined the Mirror Pond Gallery (closed now) in 2005. She has been a member of Red Chair Gallery since its founding in 2010. She also paints commissioned works for

previous buyers who love the nuanced look she gets with that molten wax. In September, she is showing paintings in the High Desert Art League display at the Commons Café in Drake Park. In November, she will have a show at the Oxford Hotel. redchairgallerybend.comjdrhodes66@gmail.comjdrhodesart.com

Rhodes’ subjects are often people that she dreams up “out of my imagination” and have included a sommelier, a violinist and a dancer. She also paints animals derived from magazine ads, although she always adds a bit of quirkiness to the animal. A current piece of a cat standing by a food bowl was inspired by an ad for cat food, for example. Her still life pieces usually feature lavish mixtures of flowers.

llipse Theatre Community (ETC) will present its latest production, the award-winning Circle Mirror Transformation by Annie Baker, with seven performances touring throughout Central Oregon on select dates from September 2 to September 18. Winner of the Obie Award for Best New American Play and hailed by critics as “absorbing, unblinking and sharply funny” (The New York Times), Circle Mirror Transformation follows an unlikely group of five strangers who have signed up for an Introduction to Acting course. Over the course of six weeks, the class cycles through a series of theatre games. They have “conversations” using only words such as “goulash” and “ack-mak.” They create stories using one word at a time. They take turns pretending they are each other. They anonymously write secrets on slips of paper to be read aloud randomly. Yet, as silly as these exercises may seem, the group finds themselves uncovering truths about their own lives and each other. The class becomes a group therapy session as they delve into family dynamics, love lives and finding meaning in life.

GREG WALTER RIDGEWALKERS:UNVEILSINTWOWORLDS Oregon’s Only Arts Magazine Since 1995 | September 2022 25
“I am also an environmentalist. I am perpetually a student of science, history, culture, lore and learning,” Walter said. “I value native forests and untrammeled land. Always have, always will. While out there, one may have feelings of being lonely, out in the wild you are never alone. In my many days of scouting coastal forests, foraging for mushrooms and other forestry products, being in tune is learned in a rhythm and spirit of nature,” Greg Walter said. “In magic realism, I attempted to share the universality and the beliefs in these spirits and beings, back to a time when man and animals spoke to each other. It also could explain why there is scant, known physical evidence, current and in the fossil record. Speculation has it where they bury their dead. All the more reason it would be in that record, somewhere. Sometimes the journey is in the search.
Ridgewalkers: In Two Worlds surrounds protagonist Alex Boldway and his actions that lead to a climactic showdown rife with danger, rescue, heroism and an enduring environmental message from the beings he protects. Greg Walter is not only an author and artist, but an entrepreneur, research historian, U.S Coast Guard and Merchant Marine veteran who spends most of his time hiking trails throughout the Pacific Coast. He has a keen interest in the history and mapping of public lands, possessing a historical collection numbering into the thousands. There are also intriguing illustrations per chapter as the author uses a technique called “stipple”, creating art forms through intricate ink dots.
Ridgewalkers: In Two Worlds was originally set to be Walter’s third installment in the series, the first two geared toward his expertise of historical fiction. However, the memoir-turned-magical realism novel is based on the author’s personal stories from his own encounters and fascinating family history, which Greg Walter describes as colorful and somewhat scandalous.
“So it is from this foundation I chose to write this story first,” Walter said. “I love science fiction, because one goal is to blend the two worlds between fact and solid theory, stepping into fiction and hypothesis and creating a blurred line between the two. Then I added spiritual lore to a natural setting, which propels the reader into a magical adventure full of plot twists and emotional connections with the spirits of nature.”
L ife-saving Coast Guard missions. Hunting for a century-old treasure. The legend of Bigfoot — and an astonishing showdown involving hired hunters with a magical, otherworldly twist. Such is the gripping adventure of Oregon author Greg Walter’s newest novel titled Ridgewalkers: In Two Worlds. Striking the perfect balance between realism and otherworldly magic entwined with obscure history, the Ridgewalkers is sure to transport the reader from their current reality to a world they will not want to escape from.
After his Coast Guard tour of duty, Alex struggles to make a living, losing his love Deanna and almost his life on a fishing trawler. Meanwhile, a struggle for primacy ensues in Sasquatch’s world bringing about ritual combat, fought on earth between the two leaders. This struggle forces them to fight side by side for their own lives from an unexpected team of military style, billionaire backed hunters wanting Bigfoot as a pedestal trophy. The lead hunter, Alex’s own cousin, Curt, is happy to kill anyone who stands in his way, including Alex.
“As an author, I must open up and share from the deep well of experience,” Walter said. “It can be daunting and I want to do a great job. So, I think it’s just my way of sharing a mountain secret that I myself still grope for solid answers of what I walked into on that pack trip in 1995.” theridgewalkers.com • facebook.com/gregwalter.author
Ridgewalkers: In Two Worlds is available on Amazon, or can be found on Walter’s website at theridgewalkers.com. He is currently selling autographed personal copies with his book along with some “gifts” of his artwork and the like. Such will be available to those who find him at various book signings or by sending him a personal message or email.
The book encapsulates Sasquatch, in two worlds. Their world becomes threatened by a deadly asteroid, leading them to seek help from Earth. Coast guardsman Alex Boldway goes on a wilderness trip with his love Deanna and is pulled into a portal where he meets the ancient Sasquatch leaders, otherwise known as Ridgewalkers. He discovers they are desperately needing his aid to help divert an asteroid that is on the path of destruction. His mission; bring to them a rare earth mineral known only as “the ultimate matrix.”

WSCAT helped Tananáwit gain nonprofit status.
The Roundhouse Foundation in Sisters is a supporter of Tananáwit through a grant for operations, and the nonprofit has received additional support from other foundations, associations, state and federal government agencies and individuals.
TANANÁWITCELEBRATESGRANDREOPENING
Tananáwit’s aim is to provide educational and economic opportunities by empowering its people and building knowledge and understanding of traditional and contemporary Native art of the Columbia River plateau. The store had operated briefly earlier this year and quickly closed, said Deb Stacona, who became the nonprofit’s executive director last month. Along with Sara Dowty, a longtime artist and Tananáwit’s new business and outreach coordinator, the two Tribal members of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs made the reopening a priority.
Deb Stacona, Executive Director, Tananawit
Tananáwit began when a group of Warm Springs tribal members, mostly artists, met to consider the idea of forming an arts cooperative. In 2015, the group began working with the Warm Springs Community Action Team (WSCAT) and Oregon Native American Business Entrepreneurial Network (ONABEN). They hosted workshops in marketing, merchandising products and website development.
“We’ll have outdoor displays, and our suite of about 500 square feet is packed with local art,” said Stacona, who formerly managed the gift shop at The Museum At Warm Springs since 1999. “We are excited to support artists here, promote them and help them grow.” Stacona said she understands how important Tribal artisans are to the Oregon Native Tourism industry. “Visitors to the reservation want to take home a piece of Warm Springs,” she said. “Warm Springs is rich in cultivating artists. We have numerous master artists, and we want to support beginning artists, too.”

Tananáwit has reached out to numerous artists over the years, and built strong connections with many of them, with the goal of strengthening that community. The Tananáwit shop is accepting art to sell, and items are sold on a consignment basis. To make an appointment, email: deb@warmspringsartists.org or sara@warmspringsartists.org

“Tananáwit clients are breaking new ground, and their success may depend, at least in part, on our performance,” said Stacona. “Art is an integral part of cultural identity of many Tribal members.”
The work of Tananáwit artists reflects their strongly-held values of family, creativity and Warm Springs culture. The artists are deeply committed to sharing intergenerational knowledge through teaching and passing down cultural art styles to future generations.
Nonprofit Promotes the Talents of Native Artists, from Masters to Beginners
ananáwit, a local Tribal Art shop nonprofit dedicated to the community of Warm Springs artists, is launching a grand reopening of its art shop September 2-4, 2022, from 10am-6pm. The event will be a sale of a range of works, from paintings and photography to jewelry and beadwork at the shop at 3240 Walsey Lane, Ste. #5 in Warm Springs.

JM Brodrick is an artist who merges her need for realism with the beauty of pure abstract. Having studied painting in her youth, she received her first scholarship at the age of 13. Her grandmother, a professional artist from Helsinki, Finland, guided JM’s love of the arts and taught her at an early age to express herself with painting. She is a signature member of American Women Artists and American Impressionist Society. She is a member in The Society of Animal Artists, Women Artists Of The West, National Oil & Acrylic Painters’ Society and the National Portrait Society of America.
Schoolhouse Produce is featuring the work of SageBrushers Art Society member Sue McLaughlin. Art was a passion for Sue from an early age, but was put aside after college to pursue a career in business. After moving from Utah to Oregon in 2000 with her husband and son, that artistic drive was reignited by the beauty and grandeur of Oregon and by the area’s vibrant community of artists. Stop in for outstanding local food and see Sue’s lovely artwork in both watercolor and oil. Showing thru September.

Each photograph is accompanied by personal written narratives written by the subject, compiled by Linda Marra, describing the tribal significance of their regalia and dance. The striking images, along with the text, vividly detail the beauty of the powwow, which juxtaposes tradition and modern culture.

After graduating from California State University, she worked in surface design, using pattern and colors, which highly influenced her style of painting today. As a member of American Impressionist Society, Buchanan has exhibited in shows and exhibitions in Oregon and California as an award winning artist since 2005.

Artist Sandy Caldwell is displaying in the downstairs gallery with a fantastic collection of nature pieces collected from her time in Central Oregon. Caldwell uses a mix of watercolor and ink to create a piece that highlights just the right amount of detail ahead of her talented brush work. Her show focuses on the local flora and fauna here in Central Oregon with a bit of imagination and whimsey thrown into the mix. The lower gallery show will run to the middle of the month when it will move out to be replaced by a special photography show by accomplished filmmaker Elif Koyutürk to benefit local charity. Come see the works and have a drink at the lodge in the relative peace of fall.

S unriver is often busy with visitors from all over the world throughout the summer. As the region moves into fall, the crowds start to thin, providing opportunity for local visitors to enjoy the weather and scenery without the crowds. The excitement of summer isn’t quite over here with a fine display of art available at the Betty Gray Gallery in the Sunriver Lodge. After a very successful summer Music Festival, the gallery will continue to show a retrospective of poster art from the history of the festival. Current poster artist Sally MacAllister has a delightful display of her landscape works that accompany her winning submission. Accompanying Sally are former poster artists David Kreitzer, Ken Marunowski and Bonnie Junell. They all offer a variety of nature and music-centered art, including the original poster art from Marunowski. This collection of artists should not be missed.
A WONDERFUL TIME TO Christian Murillo is a natural landscape and adventure lifestyle photographer. As a lover of all things outdoors, Murillo seeks both fresh perspectives on iconic landscapes as well as unearthing hidden gems deep in wilderness areas all over the world. His work is presented on traditional paper media as well as a special print on metal. Photos can be sized to whatever is appropriate for your space.
Artist Kelly Lish resists being categorized by an artistic medium. You first realize that she is special when you see that one of the categories for her various art mediums is Fairies and Such Although an incredibly talented painter with a passion for color and whimsy, she is as much a creator as a painter. Lish’s favorite creative avenue comes from her imagination, and her fairy homes/ environments are a perfect vehicle for inspiration. Each piece is unique and infinitely entertaining. They must be seen to appreciate.

Painter Lori Orlando provides pieces in a wide variety of subjects and mediums. Her style is realism focusing on wildlife, landscapes and still life. Orlando expresses herself with bold intense colors, crisp lines and detail. Regardless of the medium (oil, acrylic, watercolor, colored pencil, or pastel) the play of color, light and shadow will give the viewer a sense of excitement and anticipation.
Metal artist Jesse Pemberton has a new piece entitled Elevated-Plains, and inspired by the abstract modern movement of the mid-1900s. The piece gives emphasis to shape and color as the prominent features of form. Painted in hues of bronze and blue, it is a 3-dimensional wall sculpture composed of rod and sheet steel joined by welding offset layers in a composition of depth and color. Land and sky references (mineral, food, water, air) are provided as texture and depth cast shadows and reflect light as in a true landscape.

Talking With
C hanges on the 1st could leave you feeling awkward because it is new. Listen on the 2nd and take time to process what you are learning. Let go of worrying on the 4th and remind yourself this will get easier. Realize on the 7th that sometimes the best way to fix something is to let go and move on. The Full Moon on the 10th brings completion where it is needed. Learn the lesson and make the change on the 12th and remind yourself that you deserve to be happy. Memories could make it challenging to follow your heart on the 16th. Encouraging yourself to move forward over the next few days could give you the opportunity to see how different it is now. Open your heart on the 19th and welcome the changes that happen.
