YOU DON’T JUST BUY A HOUSE. YOU BUY ITS ENERGY COSTS. A lot of factors go into your home’s energy costs. That’s why we created EPS TM —Energy Trust of Oregon’s energy performance score—a valuable tool in measuring home energy use. EPS is a way to rate the energy performance of a new or existing home compared to similar homes in Oregon. After all, the more you know about your home's energy use, the more you can do something about it.

Clinching the Art of the Festival

ow we celebrate says a lot about our culture and our willingness to embrace the new, the different and the talented. Central Oregon is abundant in doing just that by embracing numerous festivals from music, film and literary throughout the year. These forms of celebration and acknowledgement of creative forms are spiritual in their nature. In September I attended the ever remarkable Sisters Folk Festival, without a doubt one of the absolute best music festivals I’ve attended…and it’s right here in Central Oregon. For the neophytes to this festival, this is not just folk music, you’ll be completely surprised at the gifted musicians supporting a variety of genres including my favorites Baskery (three drop dead gorgeous sisters from Sweden energetically performing blues/southern rock), Grammy-nominated John Fullbright (from the heart of Oklahoma, top of the charts in Americana, pop and rock) and The California Honeydrops (blues and R&B American band punctuated by trumpet, piano riffs and bluesy vocals). Thank you Festival Director Brad Tisdell. October brings the annual BendFilm: remarkable and thought provoking films, filmmakers, directors, actors and producers from all over the world. More than 100 film people from all parts of the globe attended

this year’s festival. The Festival’s 10th year garnered a 25 percent increase in box office attendance and provided independent filmmakers with awards nearing $70,000. I can’t say it any better than Neal Block, head of distribution for Magnolia Pictures, “The combination of Bend’s physical beauty, the strength of the program and the participation and support of the community made it a really special

weekend and a special festival.” Thank you Festival Director Orit Schwartz. November opens with The Nature of Words literary festival. As each Nature of Words has brought us words to live by and inspired us to write, listen and learn, this festival, set for November 6-10, is sure to stir your enthusiasm. Guest authors who will unveil their unique and intellectual manifestations include Lawson Inada (former Oregon Poet Laureate), Karen Finneyfrock (young adult novelist, The Sweet Revenge of Celia Door), James Prosek (artist, writer

GAELIC STORM

and naturalist with new book Ocean Nov. 6 Fishes), Jim Lynch (author of three novels set in Western Washington) and Emily Carr (a poet and finalist in seven national book contests). The Festival is full of rhetorical pleasures and illustrative rhythms. Thank you founder Ellen Waterston and now FestiLITTLE FEAT val Director Amy Mentuck for carrying Nov. 14 forward the tradition. So many outstanding festivals in a remarkable region: Lavender Festival, Asian Pacific Island Cultural Festival, High Desert Celtic Festival, Art in the High Desert, Bend Fall Festival, Two Old Hippies Festival, Oregon Festival of Cars, Festival PACIFIC MAMBO of Cultures, Bend Summer Festival, Nov. 17 Harvest Festival at the High Desert Museum, NorthWest Crossing Spring Festival & Hullabaloo, Balloons Over Bend & Children’s Festival, Sisters Arts & Crafts Festival and Quilt Show, Bite of Bend, Bend Brewfest at the Old Mill District JIMI HENDRIX FILM and the Sunriver Music Festival.

A Well of Words I learned never to empty the well of my writing, but always to stop when there was still something there in the deep part of the well, and let it refill at night from the springs that fed it. ~ Ernest Hemingway

ords. I love words. Writing has always been a love of mine, but even more important than putting the text on paper, is a love of reading. I find it hard to believe that one could be a proficient writer without first being a voracious reader. In our cover story on artist Sheila Dunn (pgs 18-19) she talked about hearing musician Jolie Holland’s theory on writing music: after absorbing poems and music over time…all the material will eventually spill out as songs. Dunn commented, “I’m continuing to absorb the songs or writings that speak to me…I feel like there are certain paintings that just come out of this process.” I have always felt the same way about writing. With every book or magazine I read, art exhibit I visit or song I listen to, the stories, lyrics and words are added to my library of material and as Hemingway said, my well is refilled. The next time I visit the page I have more influences to draw upon. November is also the time of year that lends itself to a celebration of words. The annual festival, Nature of Words (November 7-10), offers an excellent opportunity to relish the lyrical gift of many excellent writers. With lectures, readings and workshops, Central Oregon has the unique opportunity to dive into the written word. Make sure to check out their schedule of events www.thenatureofwords.org and replenish the well of your writing.

High Desert Poetry Cell is Back

ollowing their performance at City Lights Bookstore in San Francisco, The High Desert Poetry Cell (HDPC) is back reading their original poetry in Bend. Join the guy poets: Don Kunz, John Kvapil, Peter Lovering and John Martin at a fundraising reading for Saving Grace of Central Oregon on Sunday November 10 at 4:30pm at Dudley’s Bookshop Café, 135 NW Minnesota Avenue. HDPC readings are entertaining because the poems are short, understandable and often funny. Also before you can get bored with one of the guys, another one has started reading.

Furthermore Dudley’s (Bend’s last independent bookstore) will receive $6. The guys are willing to autograph either of their books, which will immediately increase the value as a collector’s item by at least 50 cents. If you already have a copy of the latest HDPC book, you can donate whatever you choose into a very stylish hat that will be passed. It’s the cocktail hour. Buy some wine, beer, coffee or tea to sip during the reading. Dudley’s Bookshop Café does so much for our community, the HDPC wants to support them generously. FYI: After much experimentation, the guys have found that poetry and alcohol do mix as well as poetry and coffee. Info: dkunz@bendbroadband.com. Download the CascadeAE App | November 2013

Old Time Radio Show With Sunriver Stars

o you remember when home entertainment meant playing board games at the dining room table while listening to the latest in the series of The Green Hornet or Johnny Dollar on the radio? Well those days are coming back, at least for a three day weekend. The Sunriver Stars Community Theater is bringing back the good old days of live radio with Radio STAR. The show is a compilation of old murder mystery and comedy shows, using the original scripts. There will be a Foley artist, also known as the sound effects man, old radio jingles, commercials and crooners. Did anyone ever tell you that you had a ‘radio voice?’ Can you sing an old Frank Sinatra tune or Judy Garland favorite? Could a child in your life sing The Good Ship Lollipop Shirley Temple style? Can you twirl your mustache and do Hercule Poirot with flair? If you answered yes to any of the above or you just want to have a lot of fun, plan to attend auditions on March 11 at SHARC. Best of all, you read a radio script, ‘over the air,’ so no need for all the memorization usually associated with being in a play. The community theater group, although relatively new, has established itself with the production of five well received plays and the donation of almost $5,000 to FAST Camp, the Sunriver Owners Association sponsored after school program at Three Rivers Elementary. By donating 100 percent of its ticket sales, the group of local amateur performers enjoys the camaraderie and fun of live theatre while giving back to this worthwhile children’s program. www.sunriverstars.org.

Stage Right Productions Announces Playwrights Platform Winner

fter premiering six new plays over the past three years, Stage Right Productions held its First Annual Playwrights Platform, a competition for writers to submit unpublished scripts for possible production at 2nd Street Theater. Twelve plays were submitted in July and a panel of five judges consisting of theater professionals and writers chose four finalists. On October 5-6 scenes were presented from each of the four plays in front of an audience. The audience and judges ranked each play. The winner was decided based on points given by the judges and percentage of audience vote. Mark of Cain, a drama about civil rights in the 1920s by Gary Earl Ross of New York had the most points, however Blemished the Musical written by Bend resident, Katelyn Alexander, won the popular vote. Based on judges’ comments and audience support, Stage Right Productions made the decision to produce Blemished the Musical in May 2014 and will include Mark of Cain in the 2014-15 lineup. Blemished the Musical revolves around Meredith Carmichael, a vivacious ex-cabaret girl who finds her ambitions on the back burner after marrying Hosea, an aspiring young pastor. A chance encounter with Charles, former fling and cabaret singer, provides Mer with the romance and escape she’s longing for. The play will be workshopped through the winter and spring to ensure it is “audience ready” by its world premier in May. Stage Right Productions will provide support as well as help create promotional materials so the playwright can approach other venues for possible production, as well as play publishing companies. www.2ndstreettheater.com.

Holmes for the Holidays at CTC

en Ludwig’s The Games Afoot or Holmes for the Holidays opens at CTC November 8. It is December 1936 and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast-members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. Then it’s up to Gillette himself, as he assumes the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears. The danger and hilarity are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays. Playgoers may not be aware that William Gillette was an actual person, an American actor, playwright and stage manager in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is best remembered for portraying Sherlock Holmes on stage and in a now lost 1916 silent film. Gillette’s most significant contributions to the theatre were in devising realistic stage settings and special sound and lighting effects and as an actor putting forth what he called the Illusion of the First Time. The director for this show is local theatre talent, Liam O’Sruitheain. He has worked professionally in theatre since 1973. Opening night for The Games Afoot or Holmes for the Holidays is Friday, November 8 at 7:30pm with a preview night on November 7. 541-389-0803, or visit www.cascadestheatrical.org.

Discover Santa Claus at Miracle on 34th Street

by Leila Smith-Daines

t’s getting to be the time of year when we all recognize the extra energy in the air. For some, it is an excitement hard to contain. There is a combination of spiritual rituals, equinox celebrations, family traditions and commercialism that tend to make one think of Santa Claus, and his origins. Old St. Nicholas originated because someone with a big heart wanted to help others. He is called Sinterklass by the Dutch. In China he is called Dun Che Lao Ren (Christmas Old Man). A gnome called Juletomten is designated in Sweden and in England he is Father Christmas. In France Père Noël. In Australia Santa Claus wears a red bathing suit, and the sleigh is pulled by white Boomers (male kangaroos). In Italy children are visited by La Befana, (a good witch),who flies down the chimney to leave gifts. Some say it is a fantasy of irrational people in many cultures of the world. Is there proof, other than the joy expressed on children’s faces? In 1947, at the Macy’s Department Store Thanksgiving Day parade, the Santa is discovered to be drunk by a very friendly, whiskered old man, named Kris Kringle. Doris Walker (the no-nonsense special events director), persuades Mr. Kringle to ride on

Macy’s float during the parade. The old man proves to be a sensation and is quickly recruited to be the store Santa at the main Macy’s Department Store. Doris Walker and her daughter, Susan, reject all notions of belief and fantasy. Yet, it is hard to ignore there is something special about Kris and his determination to advance the true spirit of Christmas. Despite reassurances by Kringle’s doctor that he is harmless, he ends up in a court competency hearing where the existence of Santa Claus is at stake. Bend Experimental Art Theatre (BEAT) will reenact this wonderful story about Kris Kringle in the play Miracle on 34th Street. The director is Raechel Gillead and she is thrilled with the quality show she and her cast of 18 actors ranging in ages from seven to 19 have put together. Gillead is amazed at the on and off-stage support and relationships of her kids. “We’ve grown to be one big family,” says Gilland. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to believe. 2nd Street Theater, evening performances: November 8, 9, 15, 16 at 7pm, matinee performances: November 9, 10, 16, 17 at 2pm. www.beattickets.org ($15 adults $10 students), www.beatonline.org, 541-419-5558.

The Fractal Nature of Brush Strokes

Sheila Dunn Explores the Integration & Disintegration of Self by RENEE PATRICK Cascade A&E Editor

olorado native Sheila Dunn grew up as an inquisitive dreamer; a childhood spent dancing and reading helped nurture the rich creative passion that began to emerge on canvas years later. Her work is heavy with color and exploration into the deeper realms of self, a combination resulting in gorgeous portraits of influential individuals in her life.

Dunn reaches deep into the idea of self in her work, exploring the idea of integration and disintegration. “I’m very intentional about the way I apply paint. My brush strokes [are like a] fractal, breaking down an energy or form into smaller and smaller parts, and I always intentionally leave some of the background showing through the figure. I’m trying to represent the idea that everything we experience becomes a part of us. There is not a lot of separation there.”

While at college at Colorado State, Dunn received a Bachelors of Fine Art in painting with a minor in art history, however her pivotal educational experience came during a study abroad semester in Italy. “That was a real turning point in my art,” she explained. “Before that I wasn’t sure why I was pursuing art, was it the responsible decision? That experience really solidified that art is not a luxury; it is vital to our growth and progress as human beings. That was a really profound experience for me.” Dunn experimented with many different styles over the years, but recently found a strong voice that has resonated with her. “My style has most notably changed in the past few years,” Dunn said. Recently turning 30, moving to Oregon from her home state of Colorado and getting out of a serious rela-

While she has been exploring the imagery of energy breaking down into smaller and smaller parts since college, it has recently transitioned from being an element she explored in the background of her work as pattern or texture, but now is translated into the figure itself.

tionship has all led her to meditate on transitions.

Women are represented frequently in her current paintings, and the figures speak to the strength of the feminine. “It had a lot to do with my mom; I was raised by a strong female figure,” Dunn explained. “I am learning to embrace the feminine qualities of vulnerability, tenderness and empathy, that’s really where the strength lies in a lot of ways.

“We go through these transitions, it’s kind of like falling apart, and [those times are] sometimes really vulnerable and scary; you feel exposed,” she explained. “The raw openness can feel kind of overwhelming, [but] if you are willing to stay open during those transition periods, it can be so productive creatively. As an artist or painter, those periods have resulted in some of my best work.”

“My models are incredible, gifted strong women [in my life] who maintain that softness to the world…

you can be strong and still maintain a level of sensitivity, that’s what I was trying to explore [in the current series].”

Cover Story

Dunn’s paintings are poetic explorations, but she mentioned her chosen medium could have easily been music or words. “I feel like there is this point in life where I chose the painting direction, but I could have just as easily chosen music or writing. It’s just where I’m focusing now…I never want to stop creating, and maybe will focus on writing one day.”

Sheila Dunn in her studio

She keeps an eloquent blog (http://sheiladunnart.com/recent-words) on her website that is a testament to her love of language and she explained that music has become an essential component in her creative process. “If I couldn’t paint with music, I don’t know if I would be a painter,” she said. “I love music so much, it really inspires.” To explain, she mentioned musician Jolie Holland’s thoughts on the matter: after absorbing poems and music over time…all the material will eventually spill out as songs. “I’m continuing to absorb the songs or writings that speak to me,” Dunn said. “I feel like there are certain paintings that just come out of this process. “The artist Michelangelo said that [when working he knew] the sculpture was already in the stone and it was his job to release it from the block. That is my experience with painting. Occasionally it will be like channeling or releasing this painting.” In her next series Dunn plans to push more on the idea of the figure integrating with the background. “I feel like the last few years I’ve been trying so much to loosen up and I remember one of my professors said, ‘Get back to that spontaneity that you had as a child.’ I’m really excited for my next series as I want to keep pushing with ideas, figures and background.” Dunn explains her art has been well received in Central Oregon, but she is working on scheduling some shows in Seattle and Portland next spring. “I’m at a point in my work and career where I need a broader audience,” she said. “I’m really excited about my art,” Dunn said. “I have worked really consistently, I paint every day. I have taken that discipline, my style has come together and I can make a living doing that and it feels really good to finally be at that point.” Dunn has shown her art around Bend at Thump, Sparrow Bakery, Hot Box Betty, St. Charles Hospital, Velvet and a few yoga studios; she has upcoming exhibits at North Soles in November and December, DOJO in February and Velvet in March. “Sometimes it’s hard to find space because I work in a larger format. My stuff is maybe pushing the boundaries in Bend, so I haven’t been able to show at a few places. In a way I’ve been okay with that because a professor of mine once said, as an artist the worst thing is to have something and have people be indifferent [towards it], any strong response is good.” Kelly

Arts High Desert Museum Unveils Expansive Collection of Historic Guns

“I just love some of the characters that we’re focusing on, like Stagecoach Mary from Montana, the first African American woman to ever work for the U.S. Postal Service. Yellow Wolf, of the Nez Perce, relative of Chief Joseph. Martha Maxwell, who was a taxidermist and naturalist in Boulder, Colorado. These historic figures are very compelling.” Frontier Firearms will bring history to life with immersive scenes and historical characters. Artifacts will include both historic firearms and other objects that would have been common for the different social and cultural groups featured. Finally, historic art and photographs will help visitors understand firearms in context and visualize life on the 19th century frontier. The exhibit features more than 50 historically-significant rifles, pistols and shotguns from the permanent collection at the High Desert Museum, the Oregon Historical Society, Oregon Sheriff ’s Museum and from private collectors. Frontier Firearms will be divided into eight thematic sections: Explorers and Naturalists, Trappers and Mountain Men and Miners, Native Americans, Military, Lawmen and Outlaws, Women, Hunters and Technology. The exhibit runs until February. Sponsored by Nosler Inc., with support from Century Insurance and James F. and Marion L. Miller Foundation. www.highdesertmuseum.org. Photo courtesy of the HDM

n the Far West frontier of the 1800s everyone owned some kind of firearm. Homesteaders carried rifles to protect their livestock. Cayuse Indians used smoothbore muskets to bring home fresh meat and skins. Naturalists armed themselves with fowlers to shoot birds for scientific study.

The Ancient Japanese Art of Raku Lives On

Photo from RACO

Raku Clay Artists of Central Oregon invite you to their biannual show on November 29-30.

ook around you, clay is very much a part of each of our lives. From the ground we walk on to the vessels we eat with to the tile in our homes and the planters in our gardens, the decorative and functional ceramics’ clay has many faces and purposes. One of the most intriguing and enchanting types of pottery glazing is the ancient art of raku. The piece is formed and fired once to 1,800 degrees to hold it shape. It is glazed and refired in an outdoor kiln, then quickly removed by the artist and placed in a can of leaves and pine needles. This combustible material ignites, is quickly covered and left to simmer and smolder for a few minutes. It is then removed, plunged into water and the glaze of shimmering, iridescent colors begin to dance before your eyes. Glorious coppers, magnificent blues and magentas evolve and sparkle as it interacts with the oxygen in the air resulting in a ‘one of a kind’ piece of art. Raku Clay Artists of Central Oregon (RACO) invite you to their biannual show on November 29-30. All pieces at the show are for sale and special orders may be placed. Admission is free. A portion of the sales is being donated to Sara’s Project, part of the St. Charles Foundation. Sara’s Project promotes women’s health through grants for research, education and breast cancer support services in Central Oregon.

Osborne’s graphic artistry shapes the look of many of the most handsome books and journals in the Northwest. Vía Lactéa, Waterston’s third collection of poetry, is a fictionalized account of her April 2012 pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago in Spain. It is a book that anyone who has traveled, or plans to travel, the Camino should not be without. The title of Vía Lactéa is a reference to the fact that the Milky Way is always overhead when walking the Camino.

uzy Williamson’s jewelry career began Suzy Williamson after moving to Alaska in the mid-90s. She had metal experience as a dental technician for seven years and learned the fundamentals of working with metal while creating dental pieces. She specifically became captivated with metalworking and jewelry design after attending a silversmith workshop at the local community college. Williamson started selling jewelry right away, focusing first on bead work and gradually moving onto more metalwork as her skills increased. She’s been handcrafting jewelry for almost 20 years. Williamson returned to Central Oregon in 2000 and completed the Metals 1-6 course at Central Oregon Community College, which helped her refine basic skills such as filing, sawing and soldering as well as experimenting with etching, enameling, reticulation, keum boo, chasing and repoussé. She exclaims, “I’m not afraid to experiment and often work out design details in copper earrings, bracelets and rings. “It’s before moving on to exvery rewarding to make a piece of pensive materials.” jewelry that will be given as a speWhile hand-crafting cial gift to a loved one,” she said. each piece Williamson “I’m also fortunate to be a member works primarily with of the Central Oregon Metal Arts silver, but uses gold, Guild and receive guidance and Riveted ring, sterling copper, brass and has advice from numerous metalworksilver, 22kt gold, recently began to eming masters.” 18 kt gold, garnet. ploy 22kt gold bi-metal Besides beto add rich gold acing a member cents.

Featured photographers in the anniversary calendar include Sean Bagshaw, Greg Burke, Jim Davis, Tyson Fisher, Brad Goldpaint and Bruce Jackson. The calendar, for purchase at the First Friday opening, also retails around the state at Costco in Bend and Portland’s Pearl District Whole Foods.

Horse lover and owner, Beryl decided to visit Hines, Oregon and Mustang Round-up by Beryl Foust-Hovey photograph the wild Oregon Mustangs corralled by the Bureau of Land Management then transform her photos into beautiful pastel paintings. There was no shortage of inspiration for Oregon Mustang by Beryl to paint from, but the round-up and sorting was without a doubt the Beryl Foust-Hovey most exciting. To see over a hundred wild horses galloping through the corral gate was breathtaking and inspirational. Beryl’s Mustang project began in the spring of 2012 and culminated this summer, with her first exhibit in September at Friends Art Gallery in Tumalo. She plans to continue painting these beautiful creatures for many years to come. “I would like to provide public awareness of the Oregon Mustangs through my paintings. I have made several visits to the corrals in Hines and have seen beautiful horses in excellent condition, a variety of colors and sizes from young to old. As captured horses, though, they will never be released back to the range. However, many are available for adoption, and I was able to actually observe a couple selecting a beautiful Chocolate Palomino to adopt whom they took home that very day.”

Photography & Jewelry at Sunriver Library ork of photographer Michael Jensen and jewelry artist Teresa Bowerman thru January at the Sunriver Library. A reception for the artists is Saturday, November 2, 1:30-4pm. Photography has been Jensen’s passion for over 40 years. He is one of the best known photographers in the Central Oregon area. His work is at the expert and award-winning level. He loves to photograph everything from landscapes and architectural images to weddings, portraits, family reunions and senior class pictures. He teaches photography and Photoshop through Central Oregon Community College and the La Pine Parks and Recreation District and also volunteers at LaPine High School and teaches a variety of photography workshops. Jensen describes Central Oregon as a “photographer’s wonderland, and it is invigorating to be able to do what you love doing, and get a fair wage for it.” Bowerman came to America at the age of 20, and stayed to do graduate work in international communications. She moved to the Bend/Sunriver area after marrying Jay Bowerman and has been a resident and frequent community volunteer for the past 40 years. In addition to her jewelry work, Teresa has taught Chinese and Japanese cooking classes and demonstrations for over 15 years. Although she is an accomplished jeweler and has shown her work at several galleries in Bend and Sunriver, Teresa describes her beading and jewelry-making as “a fun hobby.” She loves working with pearls and semi-precious stones in most of her pieces, and her style tends to be simple and understated. Teresa is donating all of the proceeds from sales of her work exhibited at the Library to the Friends of the Sunriver Area Library. 56855 Venture Lane, 541-312-1080.

gallery. Central Oregon oil landscapes by Joanne Donaca and Janice Druian appear in the lower gallery, opening November 15. In creating her collage works, Hamlin covers varied sized canvases with copper foil then adds abstracted or geometric designs of gold foil, often accented by 24-karat gold leaf. Her unique process results in subtle, layered imagery with a highly reflective surface that encourages viewer admiration as well as attempts to discern the innovative technique. On exhibit are mixed media works from her new environmental series, a passionate subject for the artist. These abstracts offer powerful messages, often identified in the titles, about the need for gentle treatment of the natural world. The works appear in a video, Respect for the Earth, to be shown in March 2014 at the United Nations in New York City as part of the Status of Women conference. Other images by Wood Hamlin feature a gamut of intense color and form depicting her fictitious characterizations of landscape becoming a painting. These highly imaginative, expressionistic works reflect her philosophy of creating novel artwork, differing greatly from traditional compositions. The artist’s career spans 20+ years and includes a BA in applied art and art history from Willamette University as well as study with Stanford University in Venice, Italy. She has shown in the Women in Art Invitational, New York City and received invitation from an international jury, and exhibited at the Florence Italy Contemporary Biennale, a United Nations program to foster understanding among nations through culture. On exhibit are expressionistic landscapes of Central Oregon’s iconic mountains and canyon landscapes by Joanne Donaca and Janice Druian. Both artists offer mid-sized compositions in oil on canvas and on board in the lower gallery during the holidays. Continuing until November 10 in the upper gallery are original oil landscapes by Ann Bullwinkel and in the lower gallery Bullwinkel’s fine art prints of her original paintings. The gallery welcomes the public to the Traditions exhibition opening on November 15 and continuing through the New Year celebrations during Lodge hours. Billye Turner, art consultant and gallery curator, provides additional information at 541-382-9398.

You’ll find her brilliant metallic hues on her hand carved platters and vessels. Carolyn Waissman has a very creative mind. Since Central Oregon has become beer country, Carolyn combined her love of photography with images of beer and wine and local flora and fauna. For those of you who are Ducks and Beavers, she has created images paying homage to these Oregon icons. Glenn Burleigh creates unique art pieces from those Central Oregon icons we see every day…..Juniper. Glenn up-cycles from firewood, showcasing the twirls and twists unique to juniper wood. A Central Oregon native, Glenn compliments his creative efforts by protecting natural landscapes and resources as a forest firefighter.

Welcome to The Sisters Country It’s Happening at The Belfry

by JEFF SPRY Cascade A&E Feature Writer

arvesting a bounty of fine-crafted patio furniture, Americana Woodworks in Bend carries on the tradition of manufacturing old-style American made seating from the finest red cedar available. Owner Mike Dolinar started the business full-time 18 months ago and the orders are pouring in. “I’d always been a woodworking hobbyist for years and wanted to do something different in my life,” he said. “Especially after being in Owner Mike Dolinar the golf retail business for nearly 20 years.” Dolinar’s one-man operation specializes in premium wood outdoor furniture in the true Adirondack tradition. Each piece is carefully hand-made of western red cedar, giving full attention to detail. Americana Woodworks creates everything from chairs to patio tables, garden swings, classic rockers, loveseat gliders and picnic benches, but his signature Adirondack chair is the flagship product. Dolinar’s top seller is his Adirondack glider chair and demand reached a fever pitch over the past spring and summer, to the point where he was back-ordered on basic metal glider arms. The low-density makeup of cedar wood accounts for its incredible dimensional stability. The less dense a wood is, the less it shrinks and swells over time in response to changes in moisture. These same low-density properties also give cedar a high thermal co-efficient and allows it to be a superb insulator, even on hot days. Some of the more interesting offshoots of the building process are Dolinar’s beautiful red cedar kitchen cutting boards in random sizes, patterns and colorings. “People really love and respond to them but my furniture is the bread and butter. That western red cedar is the best wood you can use for outdoor patio furniture. It’s mildew resistant and the bugs don’t get into it because of the resins in the wood. I finish it off with a waterproof, UV protectant. They’re all built with one-inch thick, furniture-grade cedar. It’s tight knot, meaning the grain is very refined and tight so it makes an appealing finish. “These are heirloom quality pieces that you’ll be proud to hand down generation after generation. You can sit in one of my chairs all day long and still be comfortable. What I enjoy most is the design element of the business, engineering new ideas on a simple piece of patio furniture really gets my mind ticking.” www.americanawoodworks.com, 541-550-7050.

he 100-year-old church in Sisters was designed to bring people together says owner Angeline Rhett. The vaulted sanctuary, fabulous hardwood floors and colorful stained glass windows immediately capture your attention. An abundance of wood paneling and acres of orange carpet lend a retro feel that couldn’t be recreated if you tried. Add a cozy new bar, a classic basement, classrooms, a big-ass bell and you have a truly memorable multi-purpose venue. This winter they look forward to a variety of events: The Difibulators November 2, 8-11:30pm The band’s boundless energy and infectious sense of joy onstage earned them a nod as one of Brooklyn’s best emerging bands in Vice Magazine, and a devoted following in a city not known for its love of country. “It’s most fun to play for people who don’t think they like country music,” says singer Erin Bru. Guitarist/singer/ songwriter Bug Jennings agrees, adding, “There’s something about the fast-paced, frantic, neurotic energy of New York that makes our style work.” The Difibulators Hobbs The Band CD Release Party Extravaganza! with Special Guest Franchot Tone November 8, 8-11:30pm An Evening with Slaid Cleaves November 14, 7-9pm Slaid Cleaves spins stories with a novelist’s eye and a poet’s heart. Twenty years into his career, the celebrated songwriter’s Still Fighting the War spotlights an artist in peak form. Cleaves’ seamless new collection delivers vivid snapshots as wildly cinematic as they are carefully chiseled. Dress William Faulkner with faded jeans and a worn sixstring for a good idea. “Slaid’s a craftsman,” says Terri Hendrix, who sings harmony on Texas Love Song. “He goes about his songs like a woodworker.” Mary Gauthier w/ Brad Tisdel November 16, 7-10pm In conversation and in public, Mary Gauthier comes off as a practical, no-nonsense woman. Stoic, even. Which wouldn’t seem unusual, except for the fact that her songs carry so much emotional punch, they can leave you staggering. She has a way of burrowing into that hole so many of us carry inside our souls, and emerging with universal truths that show we aren’t so alone after all. Gauthier knows where our exposed nerve endings lie because she’s probed her own so deeply, finally learning to unlock the fear and loneliness that controlled her escapeseeking trajectory for so long before songwriting — and the sobriety that drew it forth at age 35 — gave her a steadier flight path. The White Buffalo December 5, 8-11pm The White Set My Body Free appears on the just-released Buffalo narrative album Shadows, Greys, & Evil Ways (Unison Music Group), which just debuted in the Top 10 of the Billboard New Artist chart today. Paste called the album “an Old Western prototype of Odysseus” due to its tale of a war veteran trying to find peace after leaving the front lines.

Little Feat

uitar virtuosos and longtime leaders of the jam-band Little Feat offer a rare opportunity to savor the country rock songs they made legendary. A special acoustic evening with Paul Barrère and Fred Tackett starts at 7:30pm at the Tower Theatre on Thursday, November 14. It features a wide variety of hits, from Willin’ and Hate to Lose Your Lovin’ to Let it Roll and Texas Twister. “People turn up at our shows wondering how we can interpret these songs with just two guitars and a mandolin,” says Barrère. “I try to explain to them that the songs are the stars of the show, as opposed to the band, which is such a force. I think people really appreciate that. And we have a great time doing it!” Barrère, guitarist and lead vocalist for Little Feat, joined the band’s third album Dixie Chicken in 1972, and has been with the group ever since. Tackett plays guitar, trumpet and mandolin for Little Feat. He worked as a side man on many Little Feat albums before becoming a full member of the band for Let It Roll in 1988. 541-317-0700 or TowerTheatre.org.

Little Feat Leaders Bring Acoustic Show to Bend

For the band’s first show in 27 years, Zeppelin performed Jimi Hendrix a two-hour tour de force of their signature blues-infused rock ‘n’ roll. Founding members John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant were joined at London’s O2 Arena by Jason Bonham, son of their late drummer John Bonham, to perform 16 songs, including Whole Lotta Love, Rock And Roll, Kashmir and Stairway To Heaven. To commemorate Jimi Hendrix’s 70th birthday, the special presentation of his unforgettable August 1969 Woodstock concert features Voodoo Child, Fire, Purple Haze and Foxy Lady plus Hendrix’s dramatic interpretation of the Star Spangled Banner. The film opens with a fascinating “road to Woodstock” documentary revealing the struggle to stage the legendary festival and secure Hendrix as its headline artist. Hendrix 70 features digitally restored original 16mm footage, with audio re-mixed by Hendrix’s own recording engineer, Eddie Kramer. The series continues with: Peter Gabriel: Live from London 2011 on December 30 and Paul McCartney & Wings: Live from Seattle 1976 on January 13. 541-317-0700 or TowerTheatre.org.

Pure Heroine by Lorde

Cold Spring Fault Less Youth

ith only one album, Lorde doesn’t have much claim to fame. However, when this 16 year old’s song Royals hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 along with being the youngest to reach number one in 26 years, her claim to fame began. Ella YelichO’Connor or known as her stage name Lorde, was born in Devonport, New Zealand in 1996. At the age of 13 Lorde signed her first record deal with Universal Music Group and soon after released her first EP called The Love Club. Her first album named Pure Heroine was released September 30. Her music can be described as simple, smooth, clear and soulful. Lorde believes in a straight forward rap song with more attention to lyrics rather than sound. She wrote all of the lyrics on Pure Heroine and co wrote the music. Her sound and ideas are easily comparable to the artist Lana Del Ray, who is one of Lorde’s inspirations. Although Lorde is still a high school student, she’s taken a break to go on an international tour. In September and October Lorde traveled all throughout the United States. She performed in big cities including Los Angeles, New York and Seattle. She’ll finish out this year performing in Australia, the UK and also her home country New Zealand. The album Pure Heroine is available for download, or purchase on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and is available in stores. By Ally Hand

as life gotten a little pale with the waning of the sun? Do you need more beat in your life? Pick up Mount Kimbie’s second album, Cold Spring Fault Less Youth. I can’t stop listening to the fifth track, Made to Stray. Check it out. Your heart will race; the rhythmic beats push you through an almost dissonant atmosphere of sound and the whole experience will have you wanting more. This English electronic music duo formed in London in 2008 while at Southbank University. Dominic Maker and Kai Campos released their first album, Crooks & Lovers in 2010 to critical acclaim. The Guardian described the pair as, “leading an exploratory breakaway from bass-heavy dubstep towards a lighter, hazier style of electronica rich with drowsy ambience and chopped-up found sounds.” The crazy drum beats in Made to Stray are simply addictive, and while many of their other tracks don’t have quite the pull, they are successful in creating another world where sound has gravitational pull. Mount Kimbie forms major elements in their music from field recordings. Maybe that’s why it has such attraction. “A lot of what we do is about experimenting with different little bits of tone that you don’t necessarily hear on the first listen... and then trying to make songs out of them,” Maker commented in an interview with The List. Sounds are created with guitars, bass, keyboards, Native Instruments Maschine, delay pedals, samplers, Korg Kaosspad, drum pads, snare, ride cymbal and vocals. The duo is in the midst of an international tour, but their U.S. dates are unfortunately past. Look for them in years to come, or better yet, download the album now and start dancing.

Willie Nelson To All the Girls

ver six d e cades the iconic Texas singer-songwriter Willie Nelson has earned a noteworthy position in pop music’s pantheon with treasured songs that combine the classiness of Tin Pan Alley with the rough-and-tumble grit and emotional honesty of country music. To All the Girls reunites his two greatest loves: beautiful music and talented women of country, pop and soul. Decades of soul rendering performances and compositions in popular music have long solidified Willie’s reputation as one of country’s greatest romantics. He will always be honored as a songwriter of exceptional and precise elegance crafting songs made famous by Patsy Cline (Crazy), Faron Young (Hello Walls), Billy Walker (Funny How Time Slips Away), Ray Price (Night Life) and Waylon Jennings with Willie (Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys). Among the showpieces is an emotional duet with Dolly Parton, From Here To the Moon and Back, a song Parton wrote for the 2012 motion picture Joyful Noise. Willie also performs the Bill Withers’ classic Grandma’s Hands with Mavis Staples, duets with Sheryl Crow on the Great American Songbook selection Far Away Places and offers an interesting side of his self penned classic Always on My Mind with Carrie Underwood. Since you’ll want more, Willie has invited several other symbolic women singers to partake in his romantic interpretations including Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, Miranda Lambert, Norah Jones, Loretta Lynn and Roseanne Cash. 2013 is proving a banner year for the pop country patriarch whose rollicking memoir, Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die - Musings from the Road, published by HarperCollins in May 2012, is a New York Times bestselling non-fiction title. There’s nothing not to like on this album which ranges from classic foot stomping buoyant country to jazz ballad and everything in between. By Pamela Hulse Andrews

Playing Salsa, Mambo, Latin Jazz and Cha Cha’s, the big band injects a fresh, bold, contemporary sound into traditional Latin music of the 1940s through the ’60s. Special guest Tito Puente, Jr. plays the energetic rhythms and contagious melodies of his legendary father for a new generation. “People who don’t know anything about Latin music know my father,” Tito Jr. confides. “And people always smile when they say my father’s name! That is a very special gift I have been given.”

10th Anniversary Barrel Tasting Celebration at Maragas Winery

t’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since Celebrate 10 years of Maragas Winery sold incredible local wine on November 30 its first bottle of wine. This November 30 from 10am6pm Maragas Winery will celebrate this milestone. Doug Maragas, founder of Maragas Winery, is very excited about making it to this point, “From when we started marketing our wines more than a decade ago, before our first wine, Legal Zin, was even in the bottle, to the befuddled looks and comments of so many about having a winery and vineyard in Central Oregon, to the gold medal winning recognition in the San Francisco Chronicle, to the present day release of Central Oregon’s first estate produced wine - It’s been a wild ride!” For the event, Maragas Winery has a special day in store. Here are some of the high points of the event. Upon entrance guests will receive a commemorative logo glass. With your entrance you’ll be treated to a barrel tasting of our 2010 cabernet sauvignon and a taste of the first es-

tate wine ever produced in Central Oregon (estate wine means: the grapes were grown at the winery, the wine was made from start to finish at the winery and the wine was bottled at the winery). Maragas will also be unveiling their new line of wine, Good Earth, a fruit forward and chewy Malbec that stands up to its namesake. The label is also different from the rest of the wine series at Maragas. It’s an image of the back of Smith Rock viewed from the patio at Maragas Winery. While you’re tasting, listen to some of Central Oregon’s most unique and popular live music, Bobby Lindstrom from 11:30am-2:30pm and Lino from 3-6pm. Maragas Winery is Central Oregon’s founding winery and vineyard. The Winery began its adventure in May 1999 when it was founded and sold its first bottle of Legal Zin 10 years ago this November. Beginning in 2006 the Maragas crew pioneered traditional European wine grape growing in Central Oregon, having the oldest planted vines and widest variety of grape vines in the area!

New Perspective For November by Eileen Lock

his very busy month starts right out with intense communications on the 1st. The New Moon on the 3rd is combined with a Solar Eclipse. This will mark the point where you begin moving in a new direction. Decisions made over the next few days will be heartfelt and important. This will set the tone for what could be an amazing next week. Accept responsibility for your life on the 6th and you will be pleased with what happens next. Conversations are easy on the 8th and it’s a perfect time to make agreements. Take action on the 9th and you will have the support that you need to be successful. Open your mind to what might have seemed impossible until now. Ask yourself to let go of something on the 10th and you will make space for a positive change to occur. Realize what you are learning and benefit from it. Significant changes near the 15th will ripple out into the Full Moon on the 17th. You may need to revisit something that you started last month on the 20th. You are building up the nerve to ask for what you really want and the 25th is your chance. Be willing to let go of the outcome and remember the important part right now is speaking your truth. Have faith on the 28th and within a few days it will make more sense. Notice what you have learned and be grateful for it. Love and Light Always, Eileen Lock, 541-389-1159, www.eileenlock.freeservers.com, www.oneheartministry.freeservers.com.
