The other day I found the plug for this string of lights which adds a jaunty air to the annex studio After a month the studio is beginning to feel like my own, especially Friday when Deb and her volunteers arrived to get the art work for the big fund-raising auction THE CLAY BALL. Everything […]

SPRING!!!
Camellias were my first Oregon revelation. Yesterday the camellia in front of our lovely historic house reminded me of another little house…and that spring was on the way: We came to Salem in 1970, and in January of 1971 moved into a rickety little wooden rental house over on Statesman Street. The next month I […]
The Annex, week 2, and a Valentine…
A busy week in the new studio–though not as much time as I would have liked. While I have this nice space I wish for all the details of daily life to go away for a few months but, alas, groceries, errands, the gym, etc.. still claim time. This week too the auditors were using […]
The Annex…an opportunity.
I’m embarking on a three month studio trial to see if a larger space impacts my work and brings something “New.” I’ve been kindly given use of the annex–next to Bush Barn Art Center from February 1 til the end of April. I move in next Wednesday and start my project which is pretty well […]
Corvallis Art Center
Tonight’s the last night for bids on the very fun shrine show at the Corvallis Art Center. 100 artists were given a box and then made “shrines” of various types. This week I ran down to see the show and took shots of a few Salem artists represented. There’s still time to get down there […]
Art Week, Day Five and Goodbye
Well our days of work and play have drawn to a close. Yesterday we worked up until the last minute: and then we had a nice lunch, swept the place out, cut some roses and had our “opening”: Ann brought some old hangers and when Kay got there she made them into a sculpture! Mostly […]
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” […]
The Height of Summer
This is it–the middle of the summer and a big heat wave coming. Sharon called and said to come get some dahlias as they don’t like the heat coming toward us (102) so I went over early and we picked a bouquet to take to my Mom, a lover of pink. Sharon has rigged up […]
The Second Opening…7-12-09
Back up to 12 x 16 Gallery Sunday for the artist’s reception. Only two hours of charm this time and it was really fun:
Quilts in Sisters, OR
Last week was quilt week in Sisters, OR, culminating in the big outdoor quilt show Saturday. 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 […]
