Todd Looby, executive director of BendFilm, helps explain why so many locals support the festival, “When audiences gather to watch a film and explore new ideas that unfold on screen, the energy in the theatre is palpable. There will never be a substitute for a communal film watching experience when you can hear directly from the filmmaker after the screening and continue the discussion with your friends long after you leave.” BendFilm has unveiled the 2017 festival creative campaign featuring the message, It’s All About the Story, to complement the organization’s deep commitment to sharing stories to create meaningful engagement and dialogue. BendFilm thrives because it is a gift for our community and offers us the privilege, opportunity and responsibility to view great works of thought and visual integrity through film. Six years ago, several local women fathomed the idea to create a collective group whereby 100 women would contribute $100 each to raise $10,000 for BendFilm awards especially for women filmmakers and directors. The group is appropriately called Independent Women for Independent Film. According to a recent report by the Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film at San Diego State University, the percentage of female directors working on the 250 highest-grossing new releases from Hollywood actually declined from a paltry 9 percent in 2015 to 7 percent in 2016. And it gets worse. The number of female producers working on the top 250 films is down 2 percent, while the number of editors declined 5 percent as well. In fact, only 4 percent of the year’s top films employed a female cinematographer. This in an industry where the majority PhotograPhy by Michelle bauer of consumers are women.

FETIVAL
High Desert Mural Festival September 16-17 local artists will paint large scale murals in Bend’s Makers District, the Midtown Art Alley, Elk Meadow Elementary Art Wall and Cosmic Depot Art Wall. Douglas Robertson, founder and executive director of the festival, along with local artists, bring the project to life. Robertson notes that the festival is a reflection of artists’ desire to interact directly with the public. He says, “HDMF encourages positive artistic development as an economic driver in Bend as realized in major U.S. cities and abroad.” No longer in the domain of anonymous street art night creations, murals generate respectable market sums. Former street artist, renowned artist, Banksy‘s Rat &Heart mural brought 106,250 GBP (Great Britain Pound) in auction at Sotheby’s London. Similarly, Shepard Fairey, creator
of the OBEY street art label and the Obama Hope poster, completed a series of murals for the cities of Chicago and San Francisco. From ancient Pompeii frescoes to the respected creations of Diego Rivera for New York’s Museum of Modern Art, murals occupy a significant role in global art. The High Desert Mural Festival supports this potential for Bend and encourages interested artists to contact the festival. www.highdesertmuralfestival.org

SPOTLIGHT
It’s a Turtle … it’s a Dove … it’s a TurtleDove by HELEN SCHMIDLING for Cascade AE
W
hat’s it called when one animal takes its name from another? Artist Dennis McGregor pondered that riddle one day, as he contemplated painting a turtle. He painted the underside of a turtle, to be exact. But to show the underside of a turtle, he had to put it on something–like a string of barbed-wire fence. Then, he painted a bird on the wire, looking at the turtle. The bird was a dove, a turtledove, to be exact. He named the painting Turtle Dove. The Turtle Dove soon begat the Bull Frog, which–over the past three years–begat twenty more paintings of two animals, one bearing the name of the second within its own. So what’s it called, when one animal carries the name of another? McGregor unveils the riddle of it all in his upcoming book You Stole My Name (said the Bull to the Bullfrog). The book comprises 18 of his paintings with a verse for each image. To give an example: Kangaroo Rat You stole my name, But I really don’t mind. After all, we’re two of a kind. You like to jump, and I do too. They say I even look like you. The paintings are complete and McGregor is finishing work on the verses. The book will be launched in September via Kickstarter, where folks can preorder their You Stole My Name books, prints and note cards. He’s completed 21 paintings. Some of the newest ones were unveiled during the August Fourth Friday Art Stroll at Sisters Gallery and Frame Shop. The entire series will move to Sisters Library on September 1, where it will remain on display throughout the month. Two years ago, McGregor had the first few You Stole My Name paintings framed and hung them on the walls of The Cottonwood Café in Sisters, when Jen McCrystal was opening her new eatery. Over their omelets and sandwiches, diners noticed the unique artwork and started submitting their own favorite dual-animals to McGregor, who continued to paint in the series. “Having them in the Café gave them great exposure,” McGregor said. “So I just kept going. It wasn’t long before someone said, ‘You gotta do a book,’ and so I did.”
Are you an artist who is also a musician, or a musician who is also an artist? “Yup. That’s right. I make my living with my artwork, but I have arrived at a nice balance of art, music and life and working the land. And I’m so grateful that I’ve been able to make a living doing that here in Sisters.” Dennis McGregor Over the past three years, he’s painted the Bull Trout, Chicken Hawk, Cow Bird, Elephant Seal, Mule Deer, Owl Monkey and Spider Monkey, Zebra Finch, Cat Fish, Dog Fish and Parrot Fish, Tiger Shrimp, Turkey Vulture, Rhinoceros Beetle and so on. You may notice that a lot of these creatures combine an avian or a fish with another critter. His original medium is gouache (opaque watercolor). Sometimes, the two creatures are painted in symbiosis, and other times they are looking quizzically at each other as if to say, “How did this happen?” In true McGregor fashion, these paintings carry on his gift for using his sharp wit to convey subtle humor or indirect messages. Like the time he inserted his most popular Quilt Show poster, the Conestoga Wagon, as art on the wall behind his Quilting Bee painting (and the bee is busy using a Stinger Sewing Machine) or turned his band-mates into musical dogs for last year’s Hot Dogs Sisters Folk Festival poster. This year’s poster depicts the Statue of Liberty playing a parlor guitar and raising a strong arm. Since the You Stole My Name book has room for only 18 paintings, McGregor will have a brochure available for his fans to vote on their favorites. The original paintings are for sale and prints can be ordered, along with books, prints and note cards. Starting in September, go online to kickstarter.com and search for Dennis McGregor. You Stole My Name is McGregor’s second book. The many posters he designed for the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Festival inspired his first book, Dream Again, which came out in 2013. That book was inspired by the many quilt posters, especially the

Rock of Ages at the Tower Story of Jukebox Heroes, Where Every Rose Has Its Thorn, with People Who Don’t Stop Believin’
T
his September 15-23, the Tower Theatre Foundation kicks off the 2017-18 Live at the Tower season with Thoroughly Modern Productions’ staging of the Broadway hit Rock of Ages. Multiple Tony-nominee, Rock of Ages is a musical love story set on the Sunset Strip in 1987 featuring Drew, a shy kid from South Detroit and Sherrie, a small-town Kansas girl, chasing dreams of making it big in Hollywood. The story lines are dressed up with radio-rock hits from the 1980’s, blending sincere conviction and a lot of parody. “For anyone whose youth coincided with the time period in question, the siren call of those screaming guitars and sing-along choruses may be impossible to resist,” wrote the New York Times. “It’s a seriously silly, absurdly enjoyable arena-rock musical.”
Thru September 3 Peter and the Starcatcher A Play by Rick Elice, Music by Wayne Barker, Directed by John Kish. Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). Climb aboard for the Neverland you never knew. The Boy and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin, which contains a precious, otherworldly cargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly, a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s precious cargo is starstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into the wrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates–led by the fearsome Black Stache, a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for his own–the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure. October 6-22 Lost in Yonkers By Neil Simon, Directed by Rick Jenkins. By America’s great comic playwright, this memory play is set in Yonkers in 1942. Bella is 35 years old, mentally challenged, and living at home with her mother, stern Grandma Kurnitz. As the play opens, ne’er-do-well son Eddie deposits his two young sons on the old lady’s doorstep. He is financially strapped and taking to the road as a salesman. The boys are left to contend with Grandma, with Bella and her secret romance, and with Louie, her brother, a small-time hoodlum in a strange new world called Yonkers.

Y
Before the film, the Red Violin’s current owner and renowned classical violinist, Elizabeth Pitcairn, will share her experiences with the legendary Stradivarius. Named the Red Stradivarius violin while in the possession of Joseph Joachim, it was a gift from her grandfather in 1990 at Christie’s Auction in London. Elizabeth has performed at Carnegie Hall, Walt Disney Concert Hall, Alice Tully Hall, the Fisher Center and will preview her October 7 concert at the Tower launching High Desert Chamber Music’s tenth anniversary season. 541-317-0700 or TowerTheatre.org
ou will love the upcoming production of The Secret Garden to be presented at The Door by The Sunriver Stars Community Theater on October 27-29.
Directed by Victoria Kristy, with Gail Gibson as assistant director, the musical is a charming, upbeat adaptation of the literary classic by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Mary Lennox is sent to live in Victorian England after her parents die in India of the dreaded cholera. Misselthwaite Manor turns out to be a gloomy fortress. Her uncle is rarely home and his young son, Colin, never leaves his room, convinced he’s an incurable invalid. Mary discovers a strange walled garden that has been locked up for years. With the gardener’s apprentice, Dickon, a lad who can talk to the animals, Mary coaxes the garden back to life. The garden seems to have a wonderful, magical effect on all who come into it, allowing Mary to help restore Colin to health and a reunion with his father. This is a real ‘feel good’ show. It is filled with characters young, older, grumpy, snooty, forlorn, curious, loving, wise and…. all delightful. The score is bright and whimsical, and will have the actors under the musical direction of Sharon Sackett and the choreography of Rich Mundy, singing and dancing their way into your hearts! Tickets for this highly entertaining production are on sale now at the SSCT website along with other information about the Stars. www.sunriverstars.org

World-Class Musicians Intimate Venues throughout the Creative Town of Sisters
T
he Sisters Folk Festival set for September 8-10 is known for introducing the Central Oregon audience to new and fresh voices, and we are confident all of these bookings will do just that says Creative Director Brad Tisdel. If your unfamiliar with the best little festival in West don’t be fooled by the name Folk Festival as the event draws an impressive variety of worldclass musicians and song writers from North America and beyond, many are touring/career artists that much of the general public is not familiar with. This year’s performers include singersongwriter Justin Townes Earle, son of Steve Earle and celebrating the Joe Pug l Photo courtesy of release of his Sister Folk Festival eight studio album, Kids in the Street; Austin, Texas-based songwriter and guitar-player Joe Pug; Alt-country band Western Centuries led by guitar- and banjo-player Cahalen Morrison; Banda Magda, spanning world musical styles and led by Greek-born composer
and accordionist Magda Giannikou; Breedlove Guitars-sponsored artist, vocalist and songwriter Amber Sweeney; Minnesota-based songwriter David Stoddard (to perform with Beth Wood) and Bend, Oregon New Orleans-style street band the B Side Brass Band, who will add lively music to the Sisters Folk Festival community vibe.
I am proud that as a talent committee we are willing to take some artistic risks and push our audience a bit, in that they are intelligent music fans and appreciators of great artists, and we trust they will follow. ~ Brad Tisdel, Creative Director, Sisters Folk Festival
“There is an abundance of musical diversity and styles represented and we believe there will truly be something for everyone. This year’s Festival lineup includes Toronto-based Afro-Cuban band Battle of Santiago; the Hawaiian swing band Kahulanui; South American jazz improvisation band Banda Magda and Irish super-group We Banjo 3. Between our core songwriting and roots music fans and those who are adventurous musically, it will be an outstanding experience,” says Tisdel.
experiences for folks, discovering new music and artists and the intimacy of the experience. Not only do you see great performances in Dave Stoddard l Photo courtesy intimate venues, the of Sister Folk Festival artists are generally around town appreciating the community vibe we foster and the beauty of Sisters and Central Oregon.” The model of All the Town’s a Stage is where music thrives in many corners of the community and each stage has its own personality and charm. Patrons decide between the venue and its charm, food, ambiance along with the artist performing and the style of music. Ultimately Festival goers end up many times stumbling into an unexpected positive experience they would have never expected. “So it’s a discovery process,” suggests Tisdel, “and I think that is why most folks that come, come back each year and hopefully a reason we continue to sell out.”
Event organizers continue to place the music at the forefront, as the small performance venues allow the audience upfront experiences that compel the artists to perform at their best, whether in front of 125 or 1,100 affectionate fans.

“I think the focal point for me are the artists coming to town, the multi-faceted nature of the event and the impact it has on the community,” explains Tisdel. “That is one of the greatest

As creative director we asked Brad how they select the performers for each festival? Each year it is a combination of artists we have always wanted to work with, a balance of wellknown acts and up and coming talent and talent submissions he explains. “We try to keep our ears to the ground on what is going in nationally, regionally and locally and also be open to new discoveries. The last couple years I have attended Association of Performing Arts Professionals in New York and Folk Alliance International among other conferences,developing relationships with agents and artists, which helps us to continue to broaden our reach. The way that manifests is we are bringing more diverse music each year, but it all still falls in roughly under the umbrella of Americana, folk and acoustic music. “I am proud that as a talent committee we are willing to take some artistic risks and push
our audience a bit, in that they are intelligent music fans and appreciators of great artists, and we trust they will follow. Besides, if they don’t like something on one stage, there are ten others they can choose from, and each artist and venue is equally important as far as production and the ability to experience something special musically.”
Americana Project Another focus of the Festival is the way the Americana Project, artists in the schools, the Americana Song Academy and the community support all lead to a creative, multigenerational experience for folks to enjoy and experience. The Americana Project is an innovative music and arts education program with broad community outreach. It is a collaboration between Sisters Folk Festival, Creative Educational Resources and the Sisters School District. “Sisters is a special, unique community and it is in full display during the Folk Festival,” says Tisdel. “We have been producing the Americana Project going on 18 years, and thousands of kids have participated and continue to be impacted via k-12 in the schools. Many come back to experience the community that helped bring them up. “Some young people are moving back and starting families which will hopefully build a thriving community where they have their own impact and imprint on for future generations. I’ve always said it’s more of a movement than a class or program.”

Festival Future Tisdel says that the Festival is in a very good place with eleven venues over three days. “We are strategically looking at ways to grow the Festival without losing the special qualities that make it unique,” he says. “Things also change and we look for opportunities to embed ourselves even more deeply in the community we serve. To enrich lives through arts and music is what we are committed to and we will continue to do that to the best of our ability in the schools and community. Over the course of the last three years, we have solidified the support and collaboration we have with the Sisters School District and we will continue to be creative and strategic in new ways to serve Sisters better.” For tickets, artist information and a complete listing of the full lineup, visit www.sistersfolkfestival.org.

Oxford Hotel 10 NW Minnesota Ave., 541-382-8436 Seasons of the Earth featuring acrylic paintings by Sondra Holtzman thru October 25. The artist will attend the champagne opening on First Friday, September 1. Holtzman, fond of discarded gadgets discovered in deserted places, often visits ghost towns. Retrieving such abandoned finds serves her concern for the environment, revitalizing the life of unwanted items. Wrench by Saondra Holtzman Among the recovered trash/treasures were rust covered tools and objects found near Shaniko in Central Oregon. The artist memorializes these interesting remnants of the area’s early 1900s wool shipping center in her rust prints currently on exhibit. She transforms these objects into intriguing artwork by combining the rust produced by the alchemy of natural elements with tannic acid. Over time, the acid transfers a ghost image of the rusted object to a prepared surface with the result of a one-of-a-kind piece of art— an image impossible to duplicate. Her art career includes attending the Rhode Island School of Design and the California School of Arts and Crafts as well as working in San Francisco as a freelance designer creating artwork for Nike and Delta Airlines. The noted 1000 Artist Journal Pages and Signatures: The Art Journal Collection (Somerset Studio) published her work. The Oxford lobby exhibition is open all hours.

Fierce Angels by Christian Burchard Gulbrandson starts each piece with a hand-crafted wood canvas and evolves with an accumulation of layers, manipulating wax and various mediums. Using a torch and carving tools Korey scribes and removes the layers. This technique creates an exciting plane of texture What No OneTells You and color. by Korey Gulbrandson
Premiere Property Group 1133 NW Wall Street, Ste. 104, 541-241-6860 Featuring Kerry Crank, originally from Wisconsin and attended the University of Wisconsin at Waukesha and Milwaukee majoring in fine arts. She specialized in watercolor and pen and ink and was commissioned to do paintings from Connecticut to California. She says, “I have found out that finishing a painting is the hardest part. It is difficult to tell whether you should just sign off and put the brush down, or continue to work on the piece. In 2012 I started free-form sculpture in clay. Three dimensional work is totally different than oil painting, and it takes a much longer to create one piece versus a single oil painting.” Red Chair Gallery 103 NW Oregon Ave. 541-306-3176, www.redchairgallerybend.com September’s focus is on the colors of change which are reflected in the works of the following member artists. Stephanie Stanley’s current Saphira Stephanie Stanley collection of scarves, infinity cowls and ponchos takes her handweaving in a new color and style direction.

Many of her paintings depict places she’s lived and traveled to, thus making them records of memories and experiences during her lifetime. Reflecting on these snapshots of her life, Leigh Anne can look back and get a sense of maturing over time. Gray Butte by Leigh Ann Boy
Townshend’s Bend Teahouse 835 NW Bond St., Carissa Glenn, 541-312-2001, Carissa@Townshendstea.com Featuring Galactic Fantasia, ink and watercolor, by aspiring illustrator Katie Culberston, who has been a Bendite for over a decade.

OSU-Cascades Professor Emeritus to Lead Workshop Series Examining Art Since 1968
H
enry Sayre, a retired O r e g o n S t a t e U n i ve r s i t y C a s c ad e s professor of art history will lead a special workshop series this fall that examines the transformation of contemporary art over the last half-century. Registration for the workshop, offered over four evening classes, is open to community members. Since 1968: Art in the Last 50 Years surveys five decades beginning in 1968, when the Tet offensive in Henry Sayre l Photo courtesy of OSU-Cascades Vietnam, the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Bobby Kennedy, the May Days in Paris and police riots at the Democratic Convention in Chicago marked a turning
point in world politics, and by extension, in art. Over the four sessions, Sayre will examine the disintegration of traditional aesthetic distinctions over five decades, as well as the distinctions between painting and sculpture, and other art forms. Participants will explore the emergence of photography, video and performance art, as well as the significance of the increasing accessibility to art across demographics and around the globe via the internet. Sayre received his bachelor of arts degree from Stanford University and a doctorate from the University of Washington. He joined OSU in 1983 and during a thirty year career won awards for his teaching and service.

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE STORY.
ARTS
Julia Bradshaw Talks About her Photography
P
LAYA resident Julia Bradshaw will be showing images of her photographic work and talking about her process at Bend Art Center Tuesday, September 5 at 6pm. Born in Manchester, England and a photographer since the age of seven, Bradshaw spent nine years living and working in Germany prior to moving to the United States Horse (left) Chick (right) by Joanie Callen
Joanie Callen’s Magical Mystery Tour
W
ith an explosion of color and light,whimsical creatures come to life. Contemplate the colors and reflections from stained glass windows in cathedrals in Europe. See vibrant colorful creatures happily dancing in a beautiful garden. This is the realm of excitement and enchantment this mosaic artist hopes to transport you into. Joanie Callen is a mosaic artist living in Bend. Her love of color, especially strong saturated colors dominate Joanie Callen her work. Joanie’s joie de vivre is evident through her use of vibrant glass, colored mirror, dichroic glass and many sparkly objects which are seemingly thrown up in the air and kissed by a rainbow only to land happily on a mirror frame to forever brighten your home and life. 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. Her latest challenge has been to include fused glass and a multitude of complicated beading into her pieces. The latest works have incorporated beautiful fused glass, flowers, stars and various fanciful shapes used to accentuate her creatures. Joanie is always on the lookout for interesting forms and creatures to apply a multitude of objects in order to create a magical mosaic art sculpture. “I never really start out with a formalized plan, the creatures seem to create themselves as I move through my process and each one gains a personality all its own. One minute they are plain and lifeless and after adding an eye, an eyebrow, a beaded face or a curly tail, all of a sudden they speak to me and demand to be heard!” Callen’s work is available through the Red Chair Gallery, 103 NW Oregon Ave, Bend.
Julia Bradshaw
These international moves and interest in inter-cultural communication form the basis for some of her photography and video-art projects. Other art projects are influenced by her social environment: being a foreigner, reading, looking at art and being interested in all things photographic including the history and technology of photography. Bradshaw received her MFA in photography from San Jose State University and works as assistant professor for art and new media communications at Oregon State University. Her work can be viewed on her website www.juliabradshaw.com. BendArtCenter 550 SW Industrial Way, Bend, 541-330-8759

Sunriver Library Hosts Local Artists
SUNRIVER
Emphasizing Bright, Bold Color
T
he Sunriver Library is host to an exhibit of three local artists with an emphasis on bright, bold color. MaryLea Harris, painter and Bob and Sandy Lercari, fused glass artists, will show their work September 9-October 27.
2007. She loves glass for its boldness of color, reflection and transparency. It has opened up boundless joy for her as have the endless possibilities of fused glass. She feels she has now come full circle… back to using a kiln to create functional pieces as her expression of art.
Abstract acrylic painter Harris is known for her whimsical, brightly-colored Happy Little Leaves and Happy Little Trees paintings around Bend as well as for her latest abstract Map series. Themes from nature appear in her work in the form of abstracted leaves, roots, bark and natural rock formations with drips, brush strokes, and layers of scraped paint, plaster and paper. A native of Virginia, Harris’ formal education includes receiving degrees in studio art and art history with an emphasis in painting and printmaking from Sweet Briar College. She later earned her master of fine arts degree in painting from Virginia Commonwealth University. Harris relocated to Bend in 2013 with her family and resumed her full time art career. When she was teaching kids, they asked her what her favorite color was…she always said “rainbow.” Harris’ love of rainbows and bright colors are evident in her whimsical work. Using a bold palette, she creates a wide range of work in acrylic and mixed media art. Her personal motto, Authenticity > Perfection, is evident in her abstract work as she explores new ideas, materials and techniques. The layers in her work allude to the interplay between positives and negatives in space and life. She focuses on the interplay of space as she reflects on her own positive and negative growth experiences in the past few years. Sandy and Bob Lercari are a husband and wife fused glass artist team. They recently moved to Bend from Maui. Their glass art uses a variety of techniques to create a wide range of pieces that combine art with functionality. Their pieces are unique and original, capturing the vibrant colors of their surroundings in nature that have inspired them.
Fall in Technicolor by MaryLea Harris
Bold color is characteristic of all their art. Sandy has been an artist for nearly forty years creating art in multiple mediums. She began as a functional potter in Los Angeles, California, where she was born. She then ventured into painting, which included oils, acrylics as well as pastels. Sandy expanded her artistic talent to include kiln-formed glass in
Bob was an engineer and program manager for over forty years. He has always admired Sandy’s artwork, assisting her on weekends and thereby learning by observing the techniques and processes used to create fused glass. When he retired in 2012, he immediately jumped into creating his own style of glass art. Bob’s work integrates his engineering experience with art…as a left brain/right brain “meeting of the minds.”

Bob and Sandy show their work at the Tumalo Art Company in Bend’s Old Mill District.

SUNRIVER RESORT LODGE
BETTY GRAY GALLERY Autumn In The High Desert: Daniel Florea & Pat Oertley Leslie Gulch, Owyhee Canyon by Daniel Florea
S
unriver Resort Lodge Betty Gray Gallery presents Autumn in the High Desert, paintings by Daniel Florea and Pat Oertley, September 8 through November 13. The artists will attend the reception in their honor on Saturday, October 7 from 4-6pm. In the early seventies Daniel Florea and his wife, in a dilapidated van loaded with paintings and art supplies, moved to Bend where “the light was good.” In Bend, he befriended the Cleveland family and subsequently, as art director, joined their toy company, one of the largest in the industry. With Florea, North Pacific marketed many products including his kite designs, the Bionic Buzzard and another, a tribute to Alexander Calder, which sold thousands. The artist notes that Norma Cleveland enthusiastically introduced his artwork to Betty Gray, co-developer of Sunriver Resort with her husband, John Gray, and Donald McCallum.
Mrs. Gray invited him to show at the Resort in his first solo show. He adds that in the ‘70s and ‘80s, the Sunriver Resort Gallery was among the most prestigious galleries in Oregon and he regards Gray’s invitation as significant in his future career. Motivated by the show’s success, Florea began his design career using “psychologically pleasing color schemes” in murals for hotels, churches and malls around the globe; press noted that the artist was “responsible for mauve across America.” He first used the color in the San Francisco Sheraton, finding that “mauve popped up everywhere after I used it in that lobby.” A native of Portland, Oregon, Florea’s art expertise grew with his earlier study at Portland State University and the Pacific Northwest College of Art of the Portland Art Museum. In the ‘60s, he studied with famed Oregon artists LaVerne Krause, Louis Bunce and Jay Backstrand. Florea, an adventurous man, walked the Lewis and Clark Trail across the western U.S. to St. Louis, walked across Israel where he maintains a studio near the Sea of Galilee, served as the first man on the board of directors of the Central Oregon League of Women Voters, is a decorated Vietnam veteran, a long distance, third world traveler/teacher and is a grand storyteller of each experience.

Mindscape I by Pat Oertley
whose expressionistic, acrylic paintings, suggesting folk art and appearing at Sunriver Resort Lodge Betty Gray Gallery (upper level), reflect his most enduring love–painting stories of places about which he cares deeply. The exhibit images reveal many of those places–the colorful, wide open, memorable and historic spaces of Central and Eastern Oregon. Bend artist, Pat Oertley’s brightly-colored, abstract paintings show layered, geometric shapes and other forms. Applying thinned acrylic paints, she lays the colors over one another, creating depth and accenting found, suggested shapes within the art She then adds colorful, thin strips of paper, cut from her older prints, at opposing angles over the more muted geometric shapes, fostering movement through the painting. Sunriver Resort invites the public to the exhibition. Open all hours. Billye Turner organizes the Lodge art series, info at 503-7802828 or billyeturner@bendnet.com.

Rockin’ Dave’s Backstage Lounge Rocks by LINDEN GROSS, One Stop Writing Shop ooking for a place with lovely cocktails, good food and affordable price points? You owe it to yourself to try Rockin’ Dave’s Backstage Lounge on Greenwood between seventh and eighth in Bend. I’m not talking about the bagel bistro, which is still awesome for breakfast and lunch, but rather the joint Dave Flier (aka Rockin’ Dave) opened last fall in the other half of the building. I remember Dave talking about his vision for the Backstage Lounge several years ago. “Vinyl records on the walls,” he had said. “Shag carpet.” “Uh oh,” I thought at the time. But somehow the small space has come together in a charming and noise-dampening way, which makes it one of a kind in Bend. The ridiculously reasonable happy hour pricing also sets it apart. Where else can you get chips n’ French onion dip, a divine deviled egg sampler or a fat, juicy pork taco for $3? And in a town replete with signature cocktails, the Whiskey Sour (frothy egg white optional), the Comfortably Numb with Dave’s lavender-infused vodka, Grand Marnier, lime and a splash of cranberry and the Rockin’ ‘Rita with Lunazul silver tequila, Gran Gala, OJ, homemade sour mix and a Tuaca float all stood up and sang their own songs. With our premium cocktails in hand, my friends and I dove into an array of appetizers. In addition to creamy, assorted deviled eggs and the succulent, spicy pork taco that I wish I was eating right now, we tried the Saucy Balls that offer, as Dave says, “the best of Mom’s crusty meatloaf ” in a single, large, saucy and slightly spicy bite. We loved the heat and the meat, which like all of Dave’s products is locally sourced whenever possible. The accompanying potato wedges in a sour cream, Worcestershire, garlic and onion sauce could easily become addictive.

Chicken Pork Belly Jalapeño Rice Bowl
Then there were the crispy Draper Valley chicken wings slowsimmered in bacon fat and given a Jamaican spin. Nothing like confit in pig done reggae-style. While the accompanying Ranch dressing seemed pedestrian compared to the rest of the offerings, the super generous charcuterie platter made up for that and then some. Just picture a wood board piled high with two to three cheeses (including homemade Deviled Egg l Photos pimento cheese), sausage, cured meat, roasted red peppers courtesy of Jarryd Hanson and cauliflower, spicy garlic, pickled watermelon rind, pickled egg, stone ground mustard and toasted slices of baguette. We all concluded that we would be revisiting this appetizer sooner rather than later. Feeling like we had already eaten dinner, we managed to inhale every single bite of Rockin’ Dave’s perfectly balanced golden beet and lettuce tossed with creamy goat cheese and a slightly sweet beet- and orange peel-infused vinaigrette as well as fresh strawberries, which added sweet-tart brightness to the earthy beets. We split a Reuben, because how can you not knowing that Dave cures and smokes all his own meats. Having been temporarily transported back to Manhattan’s now-defunct Carnegie Delis I enjoyed the rich pastrami, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Thousand Island on grilled rye, I was brought back to the present with the bacon cheeseburger rice bowl with brown rice, seasonal vegetables, salsa, avocado and a fried egg topped with micro greens, which showcased just how good burger can be. Next time, I might have to indulge in the chicken, pork belly and jalapéno rice bowl or the turkey, bacon and spinach rice bowl if I can make it past the starters. Rockin’ Dave’s Backstage Lounge offers everything you want in a neighborhood hangout: a friendly, comfortable space, good tunes, topnotch drinks and tasty farm-fresh food that reflects the produce supplied by Community Supported Agriculture (CSAs) as much as it does Dave’s creativity. Give it a try and you, too, may decide to become a regular.

Beloved Soloist Elizabeth Pitcairn
iolin virtuoso Elizabeth Pitcairn has earned a reputation as one of America’s most beloved soloists. The daughter of a Juilliard-trained cellist, she began her musical studies in Bucks County, Pennsylvania at age three and later developed with renowned teachers such as Robert Lipsett and Shmuel Ashkenasi.
She spent a portion of her youth in Southern California, where she performed alongside High Desert Chamber Music’s Executive Director Isabelle Senger in both the American Youth Symphony and the Young Musicians’ Foundation Debut Orchestra. Her New York solo debut was in 2000 at Alice Tully Hall with the New York String Orchestra. When she was only 16, Pitcairn’s grandfather purchased the Red Mendelssohn Stradivarius of 1720 at Christie’s Auction in London. Said to be one of the best sounding of Stradivari’s remaining instruments, the violin’s whereabouts were unknown for two hundred years until its reappearance in Berlin in the 1930s. This mysterious instrument’s 1990 auction inspired the Academy Award–winning film The Red Violin. Pitcairn is the first known musician to bring the instrument into recording studios and the great concert halls of the world. Today Pitcairn resides in Los Angeles, California and regularly appears internationally in recital. Passionate about youth and education, she is president and artistic director of the Luzerne Music Center, which provides training for gifted young musicians in upstate New York. She believes strongly in philanthropy and is a frequent performer for such charitable events as the American Cancer Society, the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, the Helping Hands and Hearts Foundation and the Nakashima Foundation for Peace.
High Desert Chamber Music and the Tower Theatre are working in conjunction this fall to present a screening of The Red Violin on September 30. The following week is High Desert Chamber Music’s tenth Anniversary season opening night featuring Elizabeth Pitcairn and the Red Mendelssohn Stradivarius on October 7 at the Tower Theatre.

Songwriter Series House Concerts After years of tireless touring, Jen caught the attention of producer John Jennings who produced her latest release Accidental Pilgrimage which won a Detroit music award for outstanding acoustic/folk recording and was very popular on folk and Americana radio, spawning five top 25 hits including Dear Mr. President which is still receiving airplay worldwide. Rich Warren of Midnight Special says, “Jen’s voice is strong, not imitative of other female vocalist, knows where it’s going and takes you along.” Jen is currently recording her fourth CD with her new group the Lucky Nows. Upcoming dates include October 21 with Ellis, whose captivating voice is matched by her uplifting lyrics. On November 4 enjoy the angelic voice and lyrics laid bare by Emily Scott Robinson's own brand of roots music: southern gothic folk.

With the release of their new album Digitonium, Turkuaz’s sound is more accessible than ever and poised to break out to a more mainstream audience. With a playful feel that evokes the best of 80s dance music, Turkuaz’s tightly arranged songs are built on thick grooves, driven by powerhouse rhythm and horn sections, as well as four distinct vocalists.

urkuaz is a nine-piece Powerfunk outfit from Brooklyn, New York, whose modern take on the classic funk sound has established them as leaders in the funk revolution that’s currently taking place in the genre.

Dennis McGregor Continued from page 9
Conestoga Wagon, which led McGregor to write and illustrate the story of a young girl traveling west on the Oregon Trail with her precious family quilt. McGregor has designed Sisters Folk Festival posters since the early 2000s and many Sisters Rodeo posters, in addition to scores of commercial and fine art projects. He’s donated countless works of art to the annual My Own Two Hands fund-raiser for the Americana Project. Rumor has it that he may next try his hand at a mural, somewhere in Sisters. Stay tuned! A San Diego native, McGregor graduated from high school in the class of ’68 and started college as an art major. “I’ve been doing these things (art and music) since I was a young child … as opposed to sports and academics.” After three semesters, he dropped out to join a band, and never looked back. He moved to Sisters in his fourties and that’s when he started painting. He didn’t play music for ten years, and then one day, he picked up his guitar and started writing and singing again. Some days find him hard at work, painting in his home studio. Other times, he can be found playing a gig with his band, The Spoilers. He has released three CDs and even though he’s not contemplating a fourth, he continues to write songs. “CDs are really expensive [to make] and people can get their music for free,” he said. His musical inspiration–and his playlist when he paints–includes the classics of jazz, folk and blues: Jimmie Rodgers, Bob Wills, Howlin’ Wolf, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Nat King Cole and Ray Charles.

The group’s constant coast-to-coast touring since 2012 has earned them a passionate and dedicated national fan base that’s consistently growing. A dance band at their roots, Turkuaz’s live shows are high-energy, floor-shaking, visually appealing events filled with colorful clothing and choreographed dance moves that always leave attendees wanting more.
Sinkane music — every note of it — comes straight out of a generosity of spirit. Never has that spirit been on more vivid display than on the uplifting new album Life & Livin’ It. This is feel-good music for trying times, celebrating what makes life good without ignoring what makes it hard. Advance tickets are $20 and will go up to $25 at the door. Spetember 26, Domino Room, downtown Bend. 21 and older, doors open at 7:30pm. Sinkane will kick things off at 8:30pm. parallel44presents.com isn’t enough to do in September, look for Dennis emceeing during the Folk Festival at the Sisters Art Works tent on Friday, and playing with The Spoilers at Angeline’s on Saturday evening, followed by the late-night jam, where he invites other musicians Kangaroo Rat by Dennis McGregor up to join the band. Asked, “Are you an artist who is also a musician, or a musician who is also an artist?” he replied “Yup. That’s right. I make my living with my artwork, but I have arrived at a nice balance of art, music and life and working the land. And I’m so grateful that I’ve been able to make a living doing that here in Sisters.” McGregor’s dual-animal paintings will be shown throughout September at Sisters Library, open Tuesdays through Saturdays, 10am-6pm.

A
New Perspective for September by Eileen Lock

Relationships are cooperative on the 12th and it’s important to appreciate what can happen. Be willing to consider a bigger picture on the 15th especially in regards to love and money. Notice what is being said on the 16th and realize this is a reoccurring theme. Appreciate the changes that you see happening and celebrate them under the New Moon on the 19th. The Fall Equinox on the 22nd brings amazing conversations that are insightful. Let your boundaries dissolve on the 24th so that you can achieve more than ever before.
