Brookings Pastel Artist Rob Decker held a class at Wright's Custom Framing during the Art Walk. It was billed as a "Free Drawing Class", and in defiance of the old saying, the many attendees received considerably more than they paid for. If Rob ever offers this class again, try to get there early.

Lighthouse Artist Len Burton exhibits at Wright's in Brookings during June and July

St. George Lighthouse by Len Burton

When asked why paint lighthouses, Len replied "I enjoy painting scenery and structure and the two seemed to go together."  He painted a variety of things and Violet suggested he concentrate on a series so he chose west coast lighthouses.  He has painted 25 of them, from Old Point Loma in San Diego to North Head in Washington.

Angel's Gate Lighthouse in Los Angeles Harbor was the first one painted out of 20 different ones.  St. George has been the most popular with six different renditions, two of which were commissions. The Oregon Coast Magazine featured St. George in an issue and used one of his pieces in the article.

He concentrated just on west coast lighthouses because there were more east coast ones available and the west coast ones are different in design.  The Point Arena lighthouse is a good example.  It was damaged in the 1906 earthquake. The person who rebuilt it was a smoke stack builder so now it looks like a big smoke stack.  It originally was similar to Pigeon Point Light.

Over the years many of the sentries of the sea have been decommissioned and are now in the hands of historical societies.  We are fortunate to have several of these lights within a couple hours drive - Coquille River Light (Bandon), Cape Blanco and Battery Point in Crescent City.  The Fresnel lens from the St. George Light can be seen in the Crescent City Museum.

Lighthouses are what brought Len and Violet to the Pacific northwest They traveled up and down the coast taking photos for Len to later paint on canvas. Len will be at Wright's Framing for the June Art Walk and will be happy to answer questions and share his information about lighthouses

West coast lighthouse artist, Len Burton exhibits work at Wright’s Framing in Brookings for the months of June and July.  His showing will include original oil paintings and prints and wood lighthouse items.  He will be present for the Second Saturday Art Walk June 8th to discuss and answer questions about lighthouses.

"PARIS" - Photographs by Dean Hanson at the Runyan Gallery in Newport

A Woman of a Certain Age, 2001. Silver gelatin print by Dean Hanson

“PARIS,” photographs by Dean Hanson will be on exhibit in the Runyan Gallery at the Newport Visual Arts Center from June 7 through July 28. This retrospective show features over one hundred photographs taken over the past fourteen years in Paris, France, and printed on silver gelatin paper in the darkroom. Oregon Coast Council for the Arts will host an Opening Reception for the artist on June 7 from 5pm to 7pm.


Gray Scale, Foundation Henri Cartier-Bresson,
2005 - silver gelatin print by Dean Hanson

Casablanca, 2010 – silver gelatin print by Dean Hanson

Dean Hanson was born in Wisconsin in 1944 and grew up in Oregon, where, after training in chemistry, he became the Director of the Central Analytical Laboratory at Oregon State University. After twenty-seven years in this position, he left it in 1999 to pursue an interest in art that had begun with drawing at age three.

It was not until the late Eighties that Dean discovered his love of photography. When he left his university position, he traveled to Paris, an experience that has had a lasting influence on his artistic development, to study and continue to grow as a photographer.

He tells us, “In 1999, I rented an atelier in Paris and spent the next two months studying and working at my craft. This is the place I learned to be a photographer, and the place I began to understand what it is to be an artist. It is a city where nothing changes, and yet, a city where everything changes. The past and the present live side by side. It is there one can walk in the footsteps of the greatest artists and philosophers of the past... From De Vinci to Picasso, Paris has accepted and nurtured art and artists for hundreds of years.”

 “…when I intend to work, I carry one camera, one lens and a light meter. I photograph with available light, hand held so no other equipment is necessary.

In all aspects of my photography, I try to keep the technical part as simple as possible. The most difficult part of creating art is the artistic expression itself, not the technique or the equipment used. Keeping the technical aspect simple allows me to put more energy into the art,” says Hanson in his artist’s statement. “Art is the product of the artist, not the equipment that is utilized. That’s not to say that equipment is unimportant, but it is simply the tool that is used to produce the art… a brush for a painter, a chisel for a sculpture or a camera for a photographer.”

Hanson has returned many times to Paris, both to continue making photographs and to show his work. Dean’s primary subjects are the human form and scenes from his travels throughout the world. His work may be found in the archives at the Foundation Henri Cartier-Bresson, as well as many private collections in Europe, the United States and the South Pacific. He has shown his work at The Center for The Humanities at Oregon State University, Le Meitour Gallery in Portland, Linn Benton Community College in Albany, Freed Gallery in Lincoln City, the Newport Visual Arts Center in Newport and Art Slate '05 and '07, in Condon, all in Oregon, Metroform Gallery in Tucson, Arizona, and Atelier de la Main d’Or and Galerie Amicorum in Paris, France.

“PARIS” is Hanson’s Paris, subtle, graphic, sensitive, and sometimes almost ethereal. Working with film in the darkroom, he can spend hours printing one negative to produce the final image. His silver gelatin prints are exquisite in technique. Hanson’s exhibit is a rare opportunity in these modern times to view a body of work presented with the traditional hand printed techniques that in just a few years have faded into the background as digital photography and printing continues to advance.

The Newport Visual Arts Center is located at 777 NW Beach Drive in historic Nye Beach. Exhibits are curated by Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, a nonprofit arts organization dedicated to bringing high quality arts experiences to the coast. The gallery is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11am to 6pm. For additional information visit the website, www.coastarts.org, or contact Sally Houck, OCCA Director, Visual Arts Center, at 541- 265-6569.

Kat Cunningham at the Coastal Oregon Visual Artist Showcase

"Two Turtles" by Kat Cunningham

Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, the regional arts council for the coast of Oregon, welcomes Lane County artist, Kat Cunningham to the Coastal Oregon Visual Artist Showcase from June 7 through June 29. Cunningham’s exhibit, “Pacific Passions,” examines the colors, textures and forms of the many places she has lived on the Pacific Ocean. Meet the artist at the opening reception on June 7 from 5 to 7pm.

Since 2007, Kat Cunningham has lived and worked in Florence. “Now influenced by the Oregon sea life and coastal beauty, I bloomed aesthetically. I found my message, medium and passion all in one. My present work is Encaustic and my message is still the same – human connection, consciousness through nature. Encaustic has everything I have known as an artist. I can paint, draw, sculpt, use mixed media approaches, work in graphic design and incorporate collage’ – sky seems to be the limit. I also have found my style here and have come to terms with the next direction for me,” she says. “Art was a destiny for me, not something that just happened. It rounds out and shapes all facets of my life choices.”

"Day at the Shore" by Kat Cunningham

Cunningham has had a varied career and lived in many places. “Each place I have moved I gathered the colors, textures, living patterns and environmental disconnection of nature to make my statement.” In the seventies, she lived in southern California, owned graphic design studios and started the first fiber arts magazine, Fibernews, while she was involved in the colors and texture of manipulated and structural fibers and textiles and textile art form.

“Belonging to the prestigious LAIS -Los Angeles Illustrators Society, I chose to tell the Air force story in graphic designed fabrics as illustration and presented the pieces each year in Washington DC to the USAF Illustrators program for the Sec of State of the Air force,” she states. “In the 80’s I was again influenced by my environment when I chose to live in Europe for 7 years. Touring and traveling to see art I had only read about brought finesse to my work. I honed my drawing skills further. Living closer to nature and seeing how Europeans treat their environment fueled my nature passion to a new level.”

Living in Maui gave her a deeper connection to sea life and the plant world as art subjects. In Scottsdale, Arizona, she was inspired by the Native American culture. She has exhibited her work in Los Angeles, California, Washington DC, Heidelberg, Germany, Maui, Hawaii, and Florence, Oregon. Cunningham has received numerous awards including USAF award, Best of show; Rhododendron Art Show – First and 3^rd place in mix-media 2 years; Celebrate Arts Florence FEC, Oregon Pacific Bank and Siuslaw Public Library. Recently she was one of 19 chosen nationwide for Cloth Paper & Scissors Magazine for Cancer Awareness Art.

As the President of the Florence Arts and Crafts Association, she started the movement to financially and artistically support art in the middle schools and developed a youth mentoring program. As past president, she helped establish the coast’s only Action for Youth Art program and youth gallery, raised funds, and planned programs with PTA and Boys & Girls Club art training. She assisted with a Ford Family Foundation grant to redevelop FACA – Now called PSCA Pacific Shores Community of Artisans to fit a greater community/arts collaborative vision.

Pacific Passions is an exhibit of mixed media, paintings and encaustics with influences from her life on the Pacific Ocean in a variety of settings. A video about Kat Cunningham will accompany her exhibit and will then become part of the Coastal Oregon Visual Artists Video Archive.

Oregon Coast Council for the Arts is a nonprofit arts organization and the regional arts council for Curry, Coos, Lincoln, Tillamook, Clatsop and the coastal towns of Douglas and Lane counties. OCCA brings high quality arts experiences to the coast. The Coastal Oregon Visual Artists Showcase features mid-career artists within the arts council. The Newport Visual Arts Center is located at 777 NW Beach Drive on the beach in the historic Nye Beach area of Newport. The gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 4pm and by appointment. For additional information or to schedule a viewing outside of regular hours, call OCCA VAC Director, Sally Houck at 541-265-6569.
