It’s that time again! The Multnomah Arts Center is having their Instructors Show as part of the annual Open House. And since I am a painting teacher at MAC, regularly sharing my passion for art, I will be showing one of my latest paintings, Pick One.
Don’t miss the Sense of Place group show at Gallery 360 and Vancouver’s upcoming First Friday Art Walk. The show will be presenting different works of art pertaining to one’s sense of being in a special place or time. In that spirit, my Otter Rock Triptych will be part of this show, and I hope you will come see it firsthand and enjoy my unique perspective of the Oregon Coast.
While the Commission’s signature event runs for 2 weeks (November 5 – 13, 2011) at the Beaverton City Library, the opening Gala is Saturday, November 5, 7 – 9 pm, and always draws a big crowd. Of course I will be there and I would love to see you!
