Tonight was Kristin’s opening. The show was wonderful–over the top. A reflection of over a year of inhabiting and thinking about the Zena Experimental Forest. But a year of thinking about fathers and mothers, arts and crafts, thinking and making. The work is beautiful and when I go back and am alone with it I’ll […]

Bonnie Hull at Project Space 2
Busy week–the 12×16 show came down and the PS 2 show went up. There’s always something going on in the studio and sometimes it’s nice to get it out into the light. This show at PS 2 shows monoprints from the “Adam and Eve” series–acrylic mono-prints with painting on top, 6 drawings from the “Obsessions” […]

Project Space 2
Considering the time I spend on PS 2 I’ve been oddly silent about what’s happening down at 388 State Street. Here are a few images and I’ll take some more photos this week. Project Space 2 is an ongoing community exhibition space in Salem sponsored by the Salem Art Association for fully engaged professional artists. […]
The Second Opening…7-12-09

Quilts in Sisters, OR

I drove over Wednesday with sister-in-law LeeAnn and quilting buddy Cynthia for some workshops and some fun. We stayed at Long Hollow Ranch about 12 miles outside of Sisters. It’s an old farm converted to a B&B with the […]

D.E. MAY at PDX
Went to Portland yesterday to see Dan’s new show. It is wonderful with Dan’s usual light touch and nuanced focus. My pictures aren’t too good–please go look. PDX, corner of Flanders and 9th NW. An anonymous donor had arranged to donate a Louis Bunce painting to the Hallie Ford Museum and Roger was to pick […]

Filling the big main floor galleries is a blockbuster collection of the work of the many talented teachers over the years from the Pacific NW College of Art–formerly the Museum School. It gives these artists their due in a […]
