“Seeing all the talent there from all around the world was extremely intimidating, but also one of the most inspiring and motivating things,” said Smart, who graduated from RPA in May.

Sisters Ski Inn Makeover Kathy Deggendorfer and Kit Stafford did a stealth quilt bomb of the unsightly looking Ski Inn Cafe as you enter Sisters — a tree fell on the roof a couple of years ago and instead of fixing it the owners put up a piece of plywood and that’s what people see as they enter Sisters.

So Kathy and Kit decided to cover the whole mess with a quilt they would make out of jeans from the thrift store. They bought every pair and worked for two weeks - legs were the wall and pockets the gable end. The installed it recently with the legs on the chimney making a wonderful welcome for the 20,000 people headed there for the Sisters Quilt Show.

Redmond Proficiency Academy Ranks Superior at International Thespian Festival The Redmond Proficiency Academy (RPA) announce that the theatre arts department was awarded the highest honor of Superior at the International Thespian Festival this past week in Lincoln, Nebraska.

The International Thespian Festival was a weeklong experience that extended beyond the competition alone. Organized by the Education Theatre Association and hosted by the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, competing schools gathered from all over the county, as well as Canada and islands in the Pacific. RPA students saw 12 full-length shows, participated in numerous professionally-led workshops, auditioned for colleges and scholarships and got to experience living on a college campus.

Jacob Smart, Siena Baker, Katie Bullock and Nate Viscaino competed in the group musical category of the International Festival performing the song, Security Meltdown from the musical Calvin Berger. The group has been rehearsing their piece since January. After they qualified at both the Regional and State levels, RPA began to work towards the festival in Lincoln.

6 August 2016 | www.CascadeAE.com

RPA was awarded the highest score of superior during the competition along with feedback for future competitions. Group musical numbers are scored based off of a rubric by two or more judges from the professional theatre world.

Clabough Foundation Grant Benefits Local Kids The Americana Project Arts Outreach Scholarship fund (APAOS) received a $2,000 grant award from The Clabough Foundation in May. The grant will provide scholarships for low-income/high-risk students in Sisters. The generous gift will provide students with a safe place to go after school and long-term activities that help develop their confidence, love of the arts and new friendships.

Most of the scholarships are for on-going classes. “Long-term learning, especially for at-risk children, is crucial” said Katy Yoder, Sisters Folk Festival’s development director. “The Clabough Foundation’s gift will help us provide tuition to current recipients and allow Family Access Network to offer more opportunities for arts learning through the summer.”

APAOS was started by Sisters Folk Festival, Inc. (SFF) in 2011 to provide arts and music scholarships for children in Sisters. The Clabough Foundation saw the need of children in the Sisters community who desperately want to take part in arts activities like visual arts, learning to play a musical instrument and dance. “When children attend these classes, they’re more involved in their community, they develop lasting relationships with their instructors and they find positive ways to channel their creative energy,” said Yoder.

live music TRAMPLED BY TURTLES AND LORD HURON Trampled by Turtles’s hybrid folk sound continues its evolution pushing the band further into the grey area between genres that defies pigeonholing.

Their album, Wild Animals, is the sound of a band at the peak of their potential, strengthened from a decade together, winning some and losing some, but growing nonetheless. The album captures the intense nature that goes with being alive, melding the universal and the personal.

Joining Trampled is Ben Schneider who conjured Lord Huron from the depths of Lake Huron during a trip to his family home in northern Michigan in 2010. Ancient memories, smoke over the moon and nights full of perilous laughter all bolstered the brew from which Lord Huron emerged. ~ Pamela Hulse Andrews

A 5th Season — Library Foundation’s Author! Author! Literary Series

LITERARY WORD

W ith the announcement of the Deschutes Public Library Foundation’s fifth season of Author!

Author!, there can be no question that the popular literary series has hit its stride. The stellar lineup includes three Pulitzer Prize winners and one Pulitzer finalist and all four authors have made significant contributions to their communities and areas of interest: KATHERINE BOO | Thursday, October 20 | 7pm | Bend High School Auditorium Boo is a staff writer at The New Yorker and a former reporter and editor for The Washington Post. Over the years, her reporting from disadvantaged communities has been awarded a Pulitzer Prize for Public Service, a MacArthur “genius” grant and a National Magazine Award for Feature Writing.

In 2012 she won the National Book Award for Nonfiction for her book Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, Death and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity.

ANTHONY DOERR | Thursday, February 9, 2017 | 7pm | Bend High School Auditorium Doerr is a novelist and author of short stories. In 2015 he won the Pulitzer Prize for his novel All the Light We Cannot See. Doerr’s short stories and essays have won four O. Henry Prizes and have been anthologized in The Best American Short Stories, New American Stories, and more. He also writes a column on science books for the Boston Globe and is a contributor to the online magazine The Morning News. He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2010.

SIDDHARTHA MUKHERJEE |Wednesday, April 12, 2017 | 7pm | Bend High School Auditorium Mukherjee is a physician, scientist and author. His best-selling 2010 book, The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer, was awarded the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction and was named one of the 100 most influential books written in English since 1923 by the Time magazine.

His latest book is The Gene: An Intimate History, which chronicles the history of the gene and the quest to understand human heredity and its influence on our lives, personalities, identities, fates and choices.

DAVE EGGERS | Date to Be Announced | Bend High School Auditorium Eggers is an author, screenwriter, editor and publisher. His best-selling memoir, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction. He has written more than a dozen works of fiction and nonfiction, including What Is the What, Zeitoun and The Circle.

Eggers is the founder of McSweeney’s, an independent publishing house and co-founder of the literacy project 826 Valencia and a human rights nonprofit, Voice of Witness.

“Author! Author! promotes and strengthens community dialogue,” says the program’s Project Director Chantal Strobel. “We’ve seen great discussions happen in the past around authors like Sherman Alexie, Ann Patchett, Elizabeth Gilbert and others, and this season continues that tradition with what may be our best line-up yet.”

General admission tickets are just $25 per event, but the entire four-author series can be purchased for $80. “The cost of the full series is comparable to one concert ticket,” says Strobel. She says that the Library Foundation’s goal is to make the presentations as affordable as possible while also raising money for Deschutes Public Library programs and services that are not funded by tax dollars.

In an effort to increase exposure to literature and engage teens in civic dialogue, the Library Foundation provides free tickets for up to 200 regional high school students to attend the four author presentations and to receive copies of the authors’ books. “The outreach is part of an effort to connect with young adults in the region and to expose them to quality literature while engaging them in discussions regarding the books’ themes,” says Strobel.

REVIEW

by LINDEN GROSS One Stop Writing Shop

W

e settled in at our table at Brasada Ranch’s Range Restaurant and Bar, gazed at the panoramic view of the Cascades and ordered drinks as well as two boards topped with small offerings including a variety-pack of warm olives with citrus (oh yah!), crispy fried asparagus with a paprika aioli (double oh yay!), a tasty lightly smoked trout mousse with picked red onions and deviled eggs with candied bacon atop a splash of bourbon-maple sauce. The latter’s play of salt with a hint of sweet would be re-echoed through the rest of the dinner.

We tried three other appetizers from the menu that changes weekly. The roasted whole head of cauliflower was visually impressive but a little too plain.

That was not a problem with either the soft shell crab that was crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside, or the rich, succulent shredded duck confit served with pickled plum and grilled kale—one of the night’s favorite dishes.

We really could have stopped there. But oh how we kept going.

Range has an outdoor barbecue, so we had to have the chicken that had spent the better part of the day slow roasting on a spit. From its crackling, deep golden brown skin to its moist, juicy meat, it was the essence of what chicken can and should be. A fennel marmalade added a contrasting nod of sweetness.

The wild King Salmon was a beautiful piece of fish, beautifully cooked. The dish, served with lemony baby artichokes, was delicious despite a little too much salt.

Rock Shrimp Risotto, with olives, capers and saffron, was creamy with the rice still retaining a slight bite. We all wanted a little more shrimp in the dish, probably because it was just so darn good.

We had to try one of the two steaks. We opted for the beef tenderloin, served with cast-iron potatoes, royal trumpet (the largest variety in the oyster mushroom family) and portcaramelized onions. The steak was so lusciously tender that my friend Jill almost refused to share.

In the interest of research, we decided to sample the Fields & Garden Trio, an entrée of three vegetable options. Our hands-down favorite was the coal-roasted beets with walnuts, blue cheese in a golden raisin vinaigrette—a true winner with a sweet, sharp note.

From the outset, we had all decided against the albacore special, since tuna is often so dry. Executive Chef Ryan Sturmer sent it out anyway and the entrée turned out to be one of the best and most beautiful in a field of all-star contenders. A nice sear contrasted with the tarragon-perfumed, silky fish. Our conclusion: If a dish is offered as a special, it’s going to be special. Order it.

Ready for another news flash? There’s a rumor that Range Restaurant and Bar may stay open year-round.

The best way to make that happen? Head there as often as possible. I know my friends and I will do our part.

O

ne of the landmark films of America’s silent film era will celebrate its 90th anniversary with a special screening presented by the Tower Theatre Foundation Tuesday, August 16 at 8pm.

Directed by and starring Buster Keaton, this masterpiece follows a Southern railway engineer who has only two loves in life, his locomotive and the beautiful Annabelle Lee (Marion Mack). When Union spies steal his beloved train, Keaton single-handedly pursues it straight through enemy lines.

The storyline is a recreation of an actual wartime incident, and skillfully combines physical comedy, picturesque locations in Cottage Grove, Oregon, and of course, Keaton's love of trains.

The screening will be accompanied by a seven-piece live orchestra performing an original score written specifically for the anniversary by Hollywood composer Mark Orton (Nebraska, The Roosevelts: An Intimate History). Orton’s new Made in Oregon score features a unique collection of rare musical instruments that would have been used in the ’20s. The musicians on tour include a string quartet from the Oregon Symphony and a Foley artist for live sound effects.

BendFilm and ScaleHouse Give Filmakers 72 Hours to Create Original Short Films Based on Surprise

B

endFilm and ScaleHouse are pleased to introduce the 72 hour Filmmaker’s scramble, an event that challenges filmmakers to create original short films in just 72 hours based on a surprise theme, action or prop assignment. A screening of the entries will be shown on August 15, at The Workhouse, with the winning film shown at the 13th Annual BendFilm Festival.

Here’s how it will work: On July 14 all participants received the surprise theme for their work. The filmmaking team had only three days to conceive a story, find actors, design their production, shoot the story (on whatever camera format and audio recording device that best fits the aesthetic) and edit the final cut exactly 72 hours after receiving the theme. Experienced filmmakers were on hand to offer advice throughout the three-day production period.

“There is a lot of filmmaking interest and energy in Bend. Both BendFilm and ScaleHouse want to provide the forum and inspiration for our local makers to learn and engage in the art of filmmaking,” said Todd Looby, BendFilm director. “Last year eight teams participated with filmmakers ranging in experience and age. Our desire is to make the Scramble an annual summer community event inviting more filmmakers to participate.

We can’t wait to see what our participants come up with using nothing but their own wit and the resources at their fingertips.”

BendFilm hosts an annual independent film festival as well

as year-round film exhibitions and programs. The organization is designed to support and nourish filmmakers and enrich the cultural life of Central Oregon while also providing an economic benefit to the region. Celebrating its 13th year, BendFilm is proud to bring diverse voices and visions to the Bend community.

The BendFilm Festival runs every October in downtown Bend at The Oxford, McMenamins — Old St. Francis, Regal Cinemas, Tin Pan Theater, Cascades Theatrical Company and the historic Tower Theatre.

Make plans now to attend October 6-9 for four days of inspiring independent cinema, panels and parties.

ScaleHouse seeks to connect creative thinkers, providing opportunities for artist congregation and collaboration, cross-pollination, education and exhibition. By collecting the creative energy that is currently diffused across the community, that energy intensifies, sparking new ideas, new relationships and new awareness of Bend’s rich creative culture. ScaleHouse produces the Bend Design Conference, the High Fiber Arts Symposium, the ScaleHouse Supper and other artist gatherings and creative and arts educational workshops.

A Time Travelling World Premiere at 2nd Street Theater

S

tage Right Productions and Dionysus Presents will be featuring the world premiere of The Beatles Die On Tuesday

by Bend playwright and Dionysus founder, Clinton K. Clark. The show runs August 19 through September 3 with performances Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 3pm. There will be an opening night reception on Friday August 19 from 6:30-7:30pm.

The Beatles Die On Tuesday marks the tenth World Premiere presented at 2nd Street Theater in the past six years.

What would you do if you found yourself stuck in 1954? After inadvertently being sent back in time by their deceased father, two brothers are about to learn a valuable lesson about family, honesty and greed.

Johnny steals music that hasn’t been written yet, taking the credit for huge hits and leaving the real artists with uncertain futures. Everything’s going well but there’s

a problem: a promise made to his brother that he wouldn’t touch The Beatles. Their future is unaffected; they’re going push him out of the spotlight for sure.

So... he plots to kill them. The Beatles Die on Tuesday is a dark comedy that will leave you wondering... what if?

Playwright Clinton K. Clark recently wrote and produced a play for the Deschutes County Centennial Celebration, and just wrapped up a travelling Shakespeare production of Hamlet. He has appeared in many productions around Bend, including Avenue Q. Stage Right Productions is a nonprofit organization that runs 2nd Street Theater. Founded in 2011, Stage Right Productions’ mission is to cultivate the performing arts and provide a venue, support, entertainment and education to both the creative individuals and audiences in Central Oregon.

Exhibit Runs Until August 20, Wrapping Up With The High Desert Rendezvous Fundraiser

by MAGDALEN BOKOWA AE Art Director

N

othing more clearly connects the natural landscape of the High Desert to its rich cultural history, like the exhibits at the High Desert Museum. Now in its 34th year, and with over 100,000 square feet of space, the museum showcases unique artwork, tells stories of extraordinary cultural tales and features those rare animals specific to this region. It is an interactive learning program that captivates the young and the old, the locals and the out-of-towners, the artists and the educators.

Each year, the museum hosts the High Desert Rendezvous, a culmination of the Art of the West exhibit that showcases a whopping 59 works by 38 individual artists throughout July and August.

The works are all by western American contemporary artists, such as longtime local High Desert painter Barbara Slater, mixed media artist Meg Kahnle, photographer Charley Griswold and other renowned artists, Julie Oriet, Dan Rickards and Craig Zuger.

The exhibit promises to be an awe-inspiring array of talent from across the Pacific Northwest due to the many forms of artwork represented.

Erika Erkel, the development associate of corporate relations at the Museum, reflects, “This year’s show includes a wonderful array of artistic styles and media including watercolor, oil, pastel, acrylic, mixed media, photography and sculpture.”

By capturing the beauty of the surrounding landscapes, these artists showcase just what makes the contrasting geographic scopes of the region so enticing to viewers.

Executive Director Dana Whitelaw PhD notes, “The various artists see this landscape and its inhabitants in such different ways, then translate that point of reference through their artwork."

One such artist acting as our translator for the surrounding landscape is local artist Meg Kahnle. She recently completed the Smith Rock Project, which features over 1,000 photos, from 120 contributors that together form a beautiful eight-foot-long masterpiece of the iconic Central Oregon deep river canyons.”

When asked, Meg surmises the spirit of the exhibit with these words, “Art of the West is constantly evolving and being informed by the wild, free-spirit nature of the environment and people. To me it means adventure, connection and exploration."

“The Art of the West exhibit and High Desert Rendezvous are a great opportunity for people to connect with local artists and community members who are passionate about Central Oregon and its preservation. The High Desert Museum has done an incredible job curating

COVER ARTIST for the exhibit and event to showcase the beauty of the region for everyone to experience.”

Christina Cid PhD, director of programs at the Museum points out that the exhibit and Rendezvous “directly impacts everyone that comes to the museum. From newborns to seniors, the exhibit gives directly to our budget, that directly flows into our fabulous programs.”

She speaks of the more than 12,000 students that attend educational programs at the museum annually. “These students, future scientists, engineers and leaders form some of their first connections at the museum,” Cid says.

“It inspires critical thinking where they ask questions about the world around them. It’s so crucial to student development, and it really gives them a sense of place and where they are in the world.”

An opportunity to support such programs comes easily with the Rendezvous — a fun filled event the night of August 20. Featuring a festive evening that includes a dinner, gambling, silent and live auctions of artwork, raffle prizes, hosted saloon and live music, the event is more than just a fundraiser, it is a celebration of the unbeaten cultural offerings the museum gives to the community.

Participants will see the close of the silent auction that began at the kickoff of the Art of the West exhibit in July. Cid reflects, “We see participants come back year after year. People are excited to see the true spirit of the High Desert region presented in this amazing way.”

She reaffirms its spirit and brings home the message, “The Museum fosters and connects the past, present and the future. It shapes our community.”

Art in the Atrium Franklin Crossing 550 NW Franklin Megan Phallon and MOsley WOtta (MOWO/Jason Graham) thru August 26.

Both are noted artists in the Central Oregon community: Phallon as a visual artist with art on display through Visit Bend on the Tin Pan alleyways of downtown Bend. MoWo for his peace/humanistic rap performance art in Oregon and the western U.S. Challenges stimulating creativity, Phallon’s art reflects her lifelong struggle with Narcolepsy suggested in the vivid abstract colors and surreal patterns of her paintings, often influenced by her dreams. Painting from an early age, she sold her first artwork to her sixth grade teacher — a rendering of apples picking people of all ages off trees. Later attracted to the vibrant colors of Haitian art and the Lowbrow genre, also known as pop surrealism, her acrylic art often displays illusionary images such as the white, folded Origami birds of Earth Day. MoWo continues to show colorful, dramatic acrylic paintings of wailing skeleton beings and prismacolor teddy dogs. He also introduces to his visual lexicon, White Bird Dancing, an image reminiscent of historical Thunderbird drawings, but uniquely envisioned with tears falling on its cheeks lamenting the pain of racial barriers. Scrawled messages on the bold artwork continue to convey his desire for change in response to contemporary societal problems, echoing his performance art.

They fit the Central Oregon lifestyle, are made for each individual personally and are always one-of-a-kind.

Bandy is also an abstract painter who is working on a new series called The Continuum. It speaks to life slowly evolving through time, nature, birth and death, but also how we try to box it up in a neat little package, containing it, veiling truths and forgetting the lessons of the wise ones before us. The subject matter and the physical process of working with paints speaks to this idea of The Continuum as Bandy works both transparently and opaquely, adding layers and scraping away, creating line and texture and revealing hidden messages and truths.

Both artists will be present at First Friday, Cher will be serving her CadaDia cheese and Rich Hurdle and Friends will provide jazz.

Doellinger grew up in Australia with its vast primitive landscape and abundant wildlife. He was inspired by his continuous exposure to nature. He is also known for creating a sense of emotion in his bronzes, providing an intimate and often unusual viewpoint of animal behavior and psychology.

Emerson, who moved to Central Oregon in 1992 lives on a ranch in the foothills of Smith Rock where Dawn works in her newer 1,800 square foot studio. Dawn started out as a pastel artist and is known for the strong compositions and bold color of her pastel paintings that convey energy and movement. Her subjects include figures, animals and landscapes and all her works share a distinctive attitude, vitality and presence.

Oxford Hotel 10 NW Minnesota Ave., 541-382-8436 Maria F. Bay, CasaBay Photography, thru August 26. The artist will be present at the champagne opening on August 5 from 5:30– 7:30pm.

Bay’s innovative photographs are a complex mixture of surrealism and fantasy, each requiring over 10 hours of work and careful planning. She seeks to bend reality sufficiently to transport viewers into a different, magical dimension where strong and independent women possess the determination to conquer any obstacle, including gravity!

She notes, “There is something transcendent about exposure to a different awareness, consciousness, if even for a moment."

Her unique perspective and skill earned her a Best Emergent Photographer award from National Photo Lab, with jurors Jessie Wender, senior editor, National Geographic Magazine and

Lizz Lapp, curator and content manager at Yahoo. She won first place with Red Autumn in the fine art show Transformations, a state-wide exhibition in Massachusetts, and consequently exhibited her art repeatedly in the Greater Boston Area including a solo show. The artist also rated among the top ten percent of Most Popular Photographers in ViewBug.com.

Bay, originally from Arequipa, Peru, now resides in Bend and seeks local individuals interested in being in one of her images. She specializes in fine art portraiture and commission work is available. For more information go to www.CasaBayPhotography.com Pave Jewelry, 101 NW Minnesota Ave SageBrushers artists, Jack Bridges, Sherri Crandell and Sandy Carron.

Red Chair Gallery 103 NW Oregon Ave., 541-306-3176 www.redchairgallerybend.com Featuring three local artists: Kim McClain’s soulful painting is serene and peaceful, offering tranquility to the viewer. Her use of vibrant color adds excitement and depth to the pieces.

Florals and spiritual themes are subjects to which Kim is drawn as she is able to use her love of color and texture within that imagery. Many of Kim’s paintings are mixed media which allows her the use of textural techniques. Kim’s years of painting have been influenced partly by her extensive travels and her love of beauty in nature and people. She has studied with distinguished instructors both nationally and internationally, all of which have had an impact on her work.

Joanie Callen is a mosaic artist living in Bend. Her love of color, especially strong saturated colors dominate her work. Fascinated with the mosaic art form, Joanie studied classical mosaics in Ravenna, Italy. The technique learned was the ancient Byzantine method of setting tesserae (pieces of glass) directly into a mortar bed. This Italian experience inspired her to translate the ancient technique into a modern interpretation. Joanie’s latest challenge has been to incorporate fused glass and beautiful beads into her pieces. The latest works have incorporated beautiful fused glass buttons, flowers, stars and various fanciful shapes used to accentuate her creatures and functional mirror art.

Larissa Stafford creates glass beads one at a time in the flame of a torch using the ancient technique of lampworking. She uses silver metal clay (pmc) and traditional silver working techniques to create jewelry that is colorful, unique and fun to wear. Colors and nature are the major inspirations for her work.

Sage Custom Framing and Gallery 834 NW Brooks Street, 541-382-5884 www.sageframing-gallery.com Details features the pastel work of local artist, Laura Jo Sherman and the mixed media works of gallery owner Denise Rich.

Sherman's paintings show her belief that life and art are constantly changing. Utilizing her chosen medium of pastel to capture the light and energy of nature, her combination of brilliant saturated color and energy of movement evokes immediate viewer reaction. She recently was awarded the Richardson Award and achieved Signature status from the Pastel Society of America.

Rich's work is both a return to her artistic roots and the combination of years of study in several mediums. "I had forgotten how much I enjoyed just drawing, until I attended a class with artist Pat Clark from A6. The class rekindled the excitement I felt in college days when it was all about exploration and innovation!"

Her work incorporates subjects from nature with watercolor, acrylic with drawing.

Tumalo Art Company, Old Mill District www.tumaloartco.com, 541-385-9144 Euphoric, whimsical depictions of Oregon’s Cascade Mountains, Columbia River Gorge, Wine Country, Outback and Coast regions are the focus of Shelli Walters show, State of Bliss.

A native Oregonian, Shelli says, "I feel very connected to its diverse landscapes. Exploring the back roads, beaches and trails of Oregon is like pushing the reset button. It restores, inspires and puts the chaos of daily life back into perspective—returning me to a state of bliss.” Layering paint, typography, pattern, sketch and bold color one over the other, Shelli builds images rich in texture, color and subtle detail. Her exuberant paintings have been featured in several local events and publications, and her art is collected widely.

Boldt-Kissel took up sculpture in college and really didn’t care for it. However, as she aged, she began enjoying sculpting—especially sculpting Meg’s Monsters. She throws each of the monster’s bodies on the potter’s wheel and then sculpts it.

Moquin-Pinkert, owner of Just Around the Bend Photography, had been a “wanna-be photographer” for much of her life. Growing up on a farm in the hills of Virginia, Deb developed a love for the great outdoors and animals at a very early age. Her passion for photography became fully realized when she moved to Bend in 2012 where she found herself in a world filled with deer, ducks, geese and river otters. Suddenly, her camera became very active.

Carving Works is Eric Heinemann’s Passion

by MADELYNN BOWERS AE Feature Writer

24

D

rawing from a background of carpentry and a love for the great outdoors, Eric Heinemann has been carving works from wood since his youth, a skill that now serves him as a craft. Heinemann first moved to the Central Oregon area nine years ago, and continues to find inspiration for his woodworking from time spent mountain biking, rock climbing and telemark skiing.

He claims, “I’m a typical Bendite [in] that way, I suppose.”

Heinemann designed and crafted his first commissioned piece a few years ago. The four-by-eight foot plywood carving, which depicts scenes of the Cascades, was made for a close friend and his wife and now sits, suspended by steel cables, between two trees. When constructing this work, Heinemann utilized a jig saw, a single plane of plywood and some finish. Heinemann aimed to “make it more striking with negative space,” and added trees in front of the mountain range in order to complete this task.

After undertaking a new site-specific work, Heinemann spends time surrounded by the environment and scenery he will be carving. Eventually, he draws out the desired scape and employs carpentry tools to carve into his material. On average, this whole process requires three to four days to reach a finalized product. Heinemann prefers working with marine grade plywood, as he appreciates the durability of the medium.

On choosing woodworking as his primary craft, Heinemann says, “I like thinking in three dimensions.” The artist finds his muse in nature, and hopes to “help people’s vision and to inspire them” by reminding individuals of the beauty of the Central Oregon outdoors.

In recent years, Heinemann has completed several unique, carved works. Notably, a 40 foot fence with an intricate mountainscape spanning the entirety of the length. Other works include a cat condo, (with a wooden staircase), a music cabinet consisting of raw wood and finish, a woodcut of hops, buds and leaves in honor of beer of the Northwest and a koi fish yin-yang design to be gifted to Master Chen of the Oregon Tai Chi Wushu studio.

An incorporation of metal into his work is something Heinemann aspires to accomplish in the near future. Additionally, he would like to carve pieces displaying Monkey Face of Smith Rock and Yosemite Valley. Because woodworking has always been a creative outlet for the contractor, Heinemann states, “I’m just getting into thinking of myself as someone that can sell art.”

ooking for that special something to set off your garden or home?

Something that will bring sparkle and joy to your space? Joanie Callen may have exactly what you are looking for. Callen is a mosaic artist that creates magical creatures and beautiful color saturated wall pieces utilizing deeply colored and dichroic glass pieces.

When Joanie became fascinated with the mosaic art form she took her studies in classical mosaics to Ravenna, Italy where she studied under master glass workers. The technique learned was the ancient Byzantine method of setting tesserae (pieces of glass) directly into a mortar bed.

This Italian experience inspired her to translate the ancient technique into a modern interpretation. Recently Callen has added fused glass pieces to create a three-dimensional effect in many of her works. She can be found hunting through discarded pieces from professional glass blowers to find that special piece that can be repurposed into her works.

Joanie creates functional art pieces, especially large colorful glass mirrors, which bring color

and excitement to any environment. “I love color, it floods my senses. I love the tactile sense of touching different shapes and the textures of glass pieces. When starting a project I usually have no idea where it will take me, then I am always amazed at how it seemingly transforms itself into something magical.”

Joanie especially loves to create whimsical animal sculptures utilizing the variety of items at her disposal. “My animal sculptures are significant in that I hope to remind people to take care of the beautiful and remarkable creatures with which we share the earth.”

Joanie moved from Northern California eight years ago and lives with her husband and three dogs in Southwest Bend.

Callen’s work has been purchased by collectors from all over including Sweden, Italy, France, Germany and South America. She has participated in juried art shows in Oregon and California and belongs to the Society of American Mosaic Artists, the Mosaic Guild of Central Oregon.

She is a member artist at the Red Chair Gallery and will be featured during August 2016.

Sunriver Brewing Shining Bright

SUNRIVER

S

Company Continues Rise with Bold New Look

unriver Brewing Company is flying the flag as a standout south Deschutes County success story, winning accolades for its ales and landmark restaurants and a fast-track growth trajectory showing no signs of slowing.

The company originally began just over four years ago in The Village at Sunriver as a family-owned pub that became quickly known for serving great food and brewed its own beer.

Utilizing the area’s famously pure water resources, the founders went on to establish their own production facility in Sunriver to meet rising demand for their beer and expanded the distribution footprint, before opening a second pub in Bend and widening their offerings–most recently with the introduction of six-pack 12 oz. cans which are proving a summertime

Art in a Series with High Desert Art League Sunriver Resort Lodge - Betty Gray Gallery

T

he Sunriver Resort Lodge Betty Gray Gallery presents the High Desert Art League (HDAL) exhibition entitled Art in a Series continuing through September 4.

Art in a Series joins the 12 members of the league in the show of varied imagery and mediums. Professional artist members include Cindy Briggs, JM Broderick, Helen Brown, Patricia (Pat) Clark, MaryLea Harris, David Kinker, Lisa and Lori Lubbesmeyer, Jacqueline Newbold, Vivian Olsen, Janice Rhodes, Barbara Slater and Joren Traveller.

Broderick recipient of numerous awards including Outstanding Acrylic in the 2016 Bold Brush Painting Contest and Southwest Art magazine’s featuring her among Artists to Watch in 2015.

Brian Sherwin, art critic for Fine Art Views.com, also noted, “I love the way she utilizes a mix of expressionism and realism — visually striking work.” Broderick’s work appears in collections including Atlantic Richfield, the Russian Federation Embassy in Washington, D.C. and the Global National Health Hospital in Tokyo.

Brown is an award winning artist with her Curb Appeal appearing in the 2015 national publication, Splash, The Best of Watercolor, and qualifying for signature membership in the Northwest Watercolor Society in 2008. Her unique batik process with watercolor on rice paper creates luminous, transparent and highly textured images. Brown’s Sunriver exhibit features this process in emotionally–charged paintings depicting figurative sculpture including the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial of marines raising the U.S. flag at Iwo Jima.

Newbold’s colorful watercolors often capture images from travels in Europe while the current exhibit work depicts Central Oregon scenes including the majestic Tam McArthur Rim and views near Sisters. Her popular The Jacqueline Newbold Watercolor Travel Kit provides supplies needed to record such memorable scenes. Primarily a watercolor artist, she also explores creative ways to incorporate other mediums into her art with articles published in the mixed-media magazine, Cloth-Paper-Scissors. Her self-published book, Watercolor Journeys, guides beginning to advanced watercolor enthusiasts. ature inspires Olson as reflected in her vibrant, light-filled artwork. She notes that she “paints what she loves, animals,” striving to capture their uniqueness. With that goal, the artist devotes time to observing, sketching and photographing her animal subjects. Working frequently with watercolor, Olson also employs oils or pastels for her dramatic paintings with abstracted backgrounds but predominantly realistic imagery. A member of Oil Painters of America and American Women Artists, she is a former president of Plein Air Painters of Oregon.

Slater painted since “becoming excited about her first box of crayons.” This affection reflects in the brilliant and luminous hues of her vegetable images at Sunriver. Teaching in her earlier career, the artist also illustrated children’s books and showed paintings in California and Utah. A student at Scottsdale Art School with work in its Best and Brightest show, Slater’s paintings appear as covers on Ranch and Country magazine. She is a member of Oil Painters of America and the California Art Club.

An artist in varied mediums, Traveller’s oil landscapes at Sunriver depart from her noted sculptural animal imagery. Her High Desert scenes and other images from travels use transparent and opaque oil. Studies at Otis Art Institute before graduating Cum Laude from Cal Poly with a degree in microbiology and animal science reflect in her love of horses and competition in the highest levels of Hunters, Dressage and other events.

Traveller shows her paintings locally and sculpture at Valley Bronze Gallery in Joseph.

SUNRIVER

I

sn’t it great that when you hear a song from your youth, you are transported to that time in your life. Well, art does the same thing. It takes you away! It can take you to all kinds of fun, happy and emotional places.

If you visit the Artists’ Gallery in Sunriver, the artists are ready to lead you to both new and reminiscent times. It will be especially fun to visit the gallery on the regularly scheduled Second Saturday celebration where you can chat with all of the artists while munching on great food and sipping beer, wine and sparkling cider. The fun starts at 4pm and goes until 7pm on Saturday, August 13.

Dottie Moniz, one of the featured artists this month, has been a popular mixed media artist at the gallery since it opened. Although Moniz has been sought after for her collages depicting local mountains, water, and forest scenes, this month her collection includes some new subject matter. Her piece Creeping Fog was painted from a photo taken on Orcas Island. The viewer is moved to feel the warm evening on a walk to the beach and ocean as the fog rolls in casting beautiful shadows on the grasses. There is just a faint hint of the approaching sunset. Another painting, My Monet 3, takes to viewer to a beautiful garden.

The beautiful lilies float upon the surface of a pond and underneath the water lies a mystery.

F

iber artist, Mary Wonser, is happy to take everyone along on her new adventure. Her new creations use the softness of felted wool to create “pots” that have saturated Southwestern colors. Even though the pots are made of fiber, plants (in a water tight container) are happy to make a home there. Wonser, who has an obvious love of color and texture, is always looking for new ways to express that love. The gallery features many of her woven wool shawls using beautiful wool from the Imperial Stock Ranch in Maupin. There are also more lightweight options using rayons, blends and ribbons. Table runners are woven with hand dyed batiks and cotton yarn and soft, thirsty dish towels with American cotton grown in Georgia.

P

opular metal artist, Midge Thomas, has added to her team in order to continue to meet the heavy demand for her wall art. Daughter Laura Smith and grandson Ryan Smith are now producing pieces under the artist’s direction. These pieces allow collectors to take a trip back to the Sunriver area without ever leaving their home. Selection ranges from small key holders to very large complicated custom pieces. The Smith/Thomas/Smith team has an art piece for almost every great memory that a vacationer can find in beautiful Central Oregon.

Featured artists this month also include whimsical hat creator, Dorothy Sweet, who has aptly named her line of headgear Sweet Noggins. You don’t even have to be a child to display the colorful side of your personality. Hats range in sizes all the way from tiny babies to adults. Sweet’s use of Kool-Aid colors and one of a kind adornments make each piece a unique work of art.

Raven Makes Gallery Opens Native American Art Gallery

R

aven Makes Gallery announced their doors are open for business at 182 E Hood Ave in the Art District of Sisters. The gallery offers distinctive art and craft work of Native American peoples from across the United States and First Nations Peoples of Canada. Their vision is to show works that explore the theme of cultural identity from traditional origins to contemporary perspectives.

Quintana Galleries of Portland, Oregon was the Native American art gallery of Oregon and one of the most acclaimed of its kind in the Pacific Northwest. Since their retirement and closing in August 2015, no gallery has been formally and fully dedicated to Native American artwork.

Raven Makes Gallery intends to fill that void. The location of the gallery to Sisters reflects the ongoing shift of Central Oregon becoming an art destination for the state and the West Coast.

Paintings, jewelry, masks, Navajo rugs, Zuni fetishes, baskets, drums, beadwork, marble sculptures and Kachina, Yupik and Alutiq dolls are some of the art forms that will be offered.

Raven Makes Gallery humbly offers artwork from famed and award winning artists Raymond Nordwall, Sonwai (Verma Nequatewa), Cliff Fragua, Mary Tafoya, Jackie Bread, Claudia Peina, Elsie Holiday, Bruce Alfred, Todd Westika, Wilmer Kaye, The Cape Dorset Cooperative of Inuit Fine Arts for West Baffin Island, David Lister and many others.

There are also works by heralded newcomers such as Jason Parrish, Shawn Kee, and Warren Nieto.

The owners of the gallery, Chris Morin and LaRita Chapman, spent the past 11 years living and working on the Navajo Nation as schoolteachers in Chinle, Arizona. Their connections with many artists of the Navajo and then all Southwest peoples were developed as a result.

Having lived in Alaska from 1966 to 2000, they are strongly involved with the art world of the Far North. They lived in Central Oregon in 2004 and have family throughout the state. Raven Makes Gallery will have a website available from which works can be purchased beginning in the Fall 2016.

Central Oregon textile artists: Sheila Finzer, Carol Webb, and Sarah Kaufman, each with a unique view of the landscape and history of Central Oregon.

Finzer’s approach is one of painting the landscape on the fabric, then adding detail and texture. Sheila’s representational approach draws the viewer in to discover the beauty and serenity of nature.

Webb interprets the landscape with an abstract approach using strong line work and her own hand dyed fabric.

She finds it gratifying to bring bits and pieces of textiles together to form an integrated whole.

K a u f m a n interprets the historic landscape of Central Oregon by beginning each piece using a traditional Folded Log Cabin quilt block. She finds folding and stacking “logs” into a foundation a gentle hand exercise. Using batiks, commercially printed, and hand dyed fabrics, she begins telling the story, further embellishing it with found objects.

Art at The Ranch

by MARY TOLIVER, Black Butte Ranch

O

ne of the oldest and most enjoyable of traditions at Black Butte Ranch will be returning the first weekend in September. Art at The Ranch has been a highlight of the Ranch for the past three decades and has included paintings, sculptures, metal and pottery items, jewelry, wood crafts, books, fiber arts, candles, toys and other exhibits.

New this year is a gallery show at the Lodge Gallery starting on August 2 and running through September 5, featuring painters, photographers and mixed media. The festivities will begin at the Lodge on Friday, September 2 with a wine and appetizer reception between 5:30-7:30pm. At that time, guests can meet the artists and bid on their works in a silent auction.

During the reception, the founding Art Guild members will be honored and on Saturday, September 3, Art at The Ranch will go from 10am-5pm.

Another new feature of the Art Fair is the Plein Air Paint Out at the Ranch on Saturday, September 3 from 8am-1pm by the lake. A People’s Choice award will be given, and the paintings will be for sale from 1-5p.m. A Children’s painting workshop from 2-4pm will be taught by Rachel Lovegren.

Children will have an opportunity to hang their art for public display.

The most notable of the accomplishments of the festival is the awarding of scholarships to students from Sisters High School who have plans for furthering their education in the visual arts. Since its conception, the program has awarded close to $50,000 in scholarships. One of the recipients of a scholarship award in 2010, Rachael Lovegren, is now on the full-time staff at the new Lakeside Activity Center at Black Butte Ranch.

Many of the artists live at the Ranch and have participated in Art at The Ranch over the years. They have largely been responsible for making it a success. These have included Ruth Ingham, Charlotte Milam, Liz Dash, Margaret Burnham and Suzie Burns. They were instrumental in starting the event which was originally named Art in the Barn. The officers of Black Butte Ranch Art Guild are Co-Chairs Caryl Gibson and Paula Perkins, Treasurer Isolde Hedemark, Secretary Barbara Phillips and Scholarships Lynda Sullivan, Art Acquisition Linda Goebel.

The internet is full of cocktail and homemade drink recipes that rival the best you can buy. One of the easiest ways to incorporate spices into your drinks is by making a simple syrup which you can keep on hand and mix into some soda water or into a delicious and unique cocktail.

Making a simple syrup is very easy and relatively quick. Just bring sugar and water to a boil, remove from heat and add spices to steep. In minutes you will have a syrup to add to any Summer drink and impress your friends. Or just kick back and enjoy a great drink in the quiet of your own backyard.

Central Oregon Symphony 50th Anniversary

Since 1967, Central Oregon has enjoyed orchestral music through the programs of Central Oregon Community College (COCC). To honor this success, the Central Oregon Symphony Association (COSA) will celebrate the 50th anniversary of its classical music in the High Desert during the 2016-17 concert season.

In addition to the regular concert performances featuring some of the favorite guest artists from past years, COSA is preparing a history booklet and hosting a reunion dinner in appreciation of past and present orchestra members. To top it off, a commemorative orchestra composition, Cascades, has been commissioned from composer James Barnes.

You are invited!

The warm-up for the anniversary season is the second annual Beat Beethoven’s 5th 5k and one mile race. It will take place August 21 at the COCC campus track in Bend. All registered participants will receive a tuxedo design t-shirt, raffle ticket and a symphony ticket voucher.

The object of the race is for 5k runners to finish before the end of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony (broadcast over loud speakers) — about 33 minutes. All 5k finishers will receive ribbons that say I Beat Beethoven or Beethoven Beat Me. There’s a costume contest, prizes for 5k male and female winners, a kids race, live music after the symphony ends, food/drink, an amazing raffle, an appearance by Beethoven himself and lots of fun.

TICKETS: www.beatbeethoven5k.com There will be special events throughout the anniversary season. Kicking it off on September 25 is a Bistro Party at the Riverhouse Convention Center, with live music by the Pacific Coast Horns from Los Angeles.

Back by popular demand, the band offers classical to swing and everything in-between.

Pacific Coast Horns concerts have something for everyone — from classical arrangements to jazz, from ragtime and big band to Broadway.

The party includes a bistro supper and no-host bar. Tickets are $50 for COSA members and $75 for the public.

TICKETS: www.cosymphony.com or 541-317-3941 The second anniversary season event is the Starlight Serenade at the Sunriver Observatory on October 7, for members only. There will be a short music program and orientation by astronomer Bob Grosfeld, followed by stargazing for guests, guided by Observatory staff. Admission is free, but tickets are required, as seating is limited.

TICKETS: www.cosymphony.com or 541-317-3941 The Orchestra The Central Oregon Symphony is a community-based orchestra, the success of which is grounded in its players who volunteer their time and talent, as well as the generosity of individuals and businesses in the community who help support the organization through financial donations. The orchestra is unique in that its musicians are not paid, but they provide a full season of classical concerts. From its modest beginnings in 1967, the orchestra has grown to become a major player in the local fine arts scene. Last year, approximately 8,000 people enjoyed COS concerts. In addition, many young people in the community benefit from a variety of musical programs offered by orchestra members.

Rodrigo y Gabriela at Athletic Club of Bend

I

nternationally acclaimed Mexican acoustic rock guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela are back on the road again, bringing their unique instrumental blend of metal, jazz and world music to audiences all over the U.S. Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero have been playing together for more than 15 years. First as young thrash metal fans in their native Mexico City, then as innocents abroad and street musicians in Dublin, Ireland at the turn of the millennium, and finally as the globe-straddling, filmscoring, record-breaking artists they are today.

Known for exhilarating live shows, Rodrigo y Gabriela have won the hearts of music lovers from the haciendas of Cuba to the Hollywood Bowl and festival fields of Europe, as they continue to weave their unique six-string magic. The extraordinary interplay between Sanchez’s fiery lead lines and Quintero’s phenomenal rhythmic battery is truly universal.

The duo has reloaded their arsenal following the April 2014 worldwide release of 9 Dead Alive, their first

studio album in five years. The new songs are intimate, the playing intuitive and the results are spectacular, bursting with melodic energy and rhythmic invention. Recorded at their Pacific Coast hideaway in late summer, the album captures the warmth and spontaneity of two great musicians riffing and jamming together, perfectly distilled into nine new songs teeming with desire, elegance and gusto.

With career sales in excess of 1.5 million albums, blockbuster movie scores and sold out tours worldwide, Rodrigo y Gabriela have certainly made their mark. Their appeal is boundless, their scope limitless and the music timeless; clearly, we have only begun to see what this duo is capable of.

August 4, doors open at 5:30pm, show time is 7pm. $39, general admission tickets will be available at Newport Avenue Market or online at www.newportavemarket.com $86, dinner tickets will be available at the Athletic Club of Bend. Dinner to be served by Bistro 28.

Renowned Israeli-American Cellist to Launch Musical Road Trip in Sunriver World-acclaimed Spanish cellist Pablo Casals (1876-1973) had a career that spanned 80 years. He played for both Queen Victoria and President John F Kennedy. Three decades after his death, Casals’ widow entrusted his cello to the Israeli-American cellist Amit Peled. Now Peled will take the cello he calls “a wild horse ready to run” on a journey across America beginning with two performances at the Sunriver Music Festival; a solo recital August 16 and a closing concert August 18.

“It is an honor to be the first stop on Amit’s American road trip. We can’t wait to share his artistry with our audience,” states Pam Beezley, executive director of the Sunriver Music Festival.

Beezley points out that from the United States to Europe to the Middle East and Asia, Peled was voted by Musical America as one of the most Influential Music Professionals of 2015.

In a feature story in the New York Times, Peled reflected on the honor of playing such a celebrated instrument and the unique nature of bringing classical music to where it belongs, to people living in rural America.

“This cello made the journey with the maestro from Spain into world fame. All the major recordings of Casals were created with this instrument,” explains Peled.

“So I’m just going to go with my family, and have my daughter manage a Twitter account and investigate what our next stop should be. We’ll stop every place we can and perform for local audiences.”

The Festival’s 39th season runs from August 7-18 and is full of classical concerts, masterclasses, music workshops, family concerts, fundraisers and open rehearsals. Many of the visiting musicians from prestigious orchestras are handpicked for the Sunriver Music Festival Orchestra by Artistic Director George Hanson.

New Perspective for August by Eileen Lock

his month starts right out with completion and new beginnings. The New Moon on the 2nd is all about hitting the reset button and going for it.

Take a leap of faith at this time and be ready to follow through. Conversations are intense during the first week and decisions are very possible on the 6th. Be sure you are doing what your heart really wants. Agreements made near the 8th will need to be done with blind faith. Cooperation by the 10th is helpful in order to get to the next step. Opportunities on the 12th and 13th could feel awkward and you may feel like you want to say “No”.

Consider negotiating with those involved, and by the 17th you could be pleasantly surprised. The Full Moon on the 18th brings change and the activity level increases significantly. Too many words on the 22nd might only complicate the situation. Keep it simple and be ready to move on. Action taken on the 24th will help you define your next steps. Realize many things are changing right now and continue to talk about what you want to see happen.

Conversations over the last four days will be expansive and heartfelt. Listen to what is being said and realize how important it is to be honest with yourself.

Love and Light Always, “Listen for the song in your heart, Eileen Lock - Clairvoyant Astrologer/Spiritual Medium find the melody and dance to the music.”
