DAVID CARMACK LEWIS paints oil paintings on canvas depicting intriguing, unusual and ordinary scenes from neighborhood life. Glowing fires, crows, people, animals, structures, and train stations often appear in his paintings. He wants you to create a story that inspires you by viewing his paintings.

"A mysterious beauty resonates through these paintings instilling dark reverence. David's contrasting use of deep shadows and warm light appeals to our subconscious with the flavor of ancient folk tales" FireHouse Gallery, 2008 Rogue Community College.

NATHANIEL C. PRASKA is an emerging artist who paints oil paintings focusing on plein aire works. He orders unfinished wood that he mitres, constructs his frames and then gold leafs them. Sometimes he carves designs in the frames. "During the last few years, I have learned what a pleasure it is to paint on location. It is both a joy and a challenge. I have found that when I am painting outside, I am more easily absorbed in the work and I am more attuned to my surroundings"

Most recently in December, he was included in Warren Haynes' 20th Annual Christmas Jam Art Show at the Satellite Gallery in Asheville, North Carolina.

This work explores the intermingling of time, place and interpersonal relationships.

Each painting is a unique experience for the viewer who may find Ellen's bold, uninhibited style refreshing, exciting and forever intriquing.

July 3 - August 2, 2008: Judith Cunningham, Mon. through Sat. 10 am to 5:30pm
Judith Cunningham (206 SW First Ave.)
JUDITH CUNNINGHAM, living in Eastern Oregon, is inspired by the surrounding country from the Columbia gorge to the Steens Mountains. Traveling with her camera, she captures the wheat fields, open skies, rivers, rocks and even small city alleys, shooting as the mood and vision moves her. Her aim is to catch the unique cloud formation, odd lighting situation, striking land pattern, and fleeting shadows with her camera; so that she can return to her studio to paint portions of her photos or sometimes splicing them together to form a panoramic view of the landforms. Judith watches for the changes in color and the transitional patterns of light that are most often found during the evening as the colors deepen and the light recedes.

"When I am painting I become one with the paint and try to keep intellectual ideas to a minimum. While working, I relaate only to surfaces, thus much of the transmission of subtle intuitive feelings about a subject is subconscious. My intention is to share a vision with others, and when they connect with it: validation."

June 5 - June 28, 2008: Z.Z. Wei
Z.Z. Wei: Oils on canvas (206 SW First Ave.)
Upon his first arrival from China to the Pacific Northwest, Z.Z. Wei could not believe the beauty that spread before him. His first experiences in the Pacific Northwest were visual revelations. Feeling completely liberated from the stringent boundaries placed on him since birth, he embarked on an artistic odyssey in a quest to paint powerful images of rural America. He found the strong and unique landscapes in this region, and the spirit which moved through them, mirrored his inner passions and the art ideas he sought. This explosion of awarness coupled with his own memories of home have created a visual text in his work that is an intoxicating sensation of the past and present.

March 6 - 29 ,2008: David Allen Dunlop, Mon. through Sat. 10 to 5:30 pm
David Allen Dunlop (206 SW First Ave.)
David, a Norwalk, Connecticut artist for 24 years, is admired for his relentless pursuit of researching the Old Masters. An instructor in his own right, David pursues experimental methods and techniques stretching back to the Renaissance. During the Fall and Winter, he paints, teaches, and exhibits extensively in the East, while in the Summer he teaches art in Italy and France. David was invited and gave a lecture at the Metropolitan Museum Of Art in New York City in April of 2005. The ivitation to members was extended to the museum's mailing list of 3 million. The first seven hundred were admitted. The title of the one and a half hour lecture was "Landscape Painting, Time Line 4500 Years of Landscape Painting".

In Europe, David was intrigued by a glowing quality in many of the paintings he observed in the museums. He soon discovered that they were painted on solid sheets of 23.5 K gold leaf. He has successfully integrated this past knowledge into his present works on paper and canvas to illuminate his landscapes through the application of oil paint on gold leaf. This mysterious combination creates such a lush radiance that his rivers, roads, trees, pathways, rocks and all the combinations of nature found in his landscapes actually burst with a bright golden glow when held to the light.

David's love of the outdoors, zigzagging rivers, roads, and meadows are chronicled as images in a guidebook, "Tidewaters of the Connecticut River: An Explorer's Guide to Hidden Coves and Marshes" (2001) which will be on view in the gallery.

A new 13 half-hour high definition PBS series, "Landscapes through Time with David Dunlop", to be aired in June, offers an audience the chance to do just that in an entirely new and exciting format - they can see how great paintings have been made throughout history in the actual locations where they were painted, learning about the artist's vision and the artist's world. In each of the 13 programs, David will take the viewer to the actual locations painted by celebrated American or European artists such as Cezanne's Mont. St. Victoire in Aix-en-Provence, the cypress trees made famous by Van Gogh in France, The Catskill Mountain waterfalls that fascinated the Hudson River Painters, and The Lieutenant River banks in Old Lyme, Connecticut painted by the American impressionists.

August 7 - 30, 2003, Mon. through Sat. 10 am to 5:30 pm
Brian Arthur Miller and Carl Rowe (206 SW First Ave.)
BRIAN ARTHUR MILLER'S hand cast paintings (made from handmade cotton paper pulp that Brian makes) are multistage pieces. Working from a sketch, he sculpts a clay relief, from which he makes a plaster mold. When the mold is dry, he replaces the original cast with pulped, acid-free cotton rag paper pulp. Then he removes the dried paper, seals it and embellishes it with acrylics, iridescent inks, gold and copper leaf, and three applications of resin to protect the work from direct sunlight. Exclusively for Oregon, Brian's new representational work in this exhibit is influenced by Louis Comfort Tiffany.

CARL ROWE paints oils on canvas that are almost sensual and very moving. To his oil paints he adds alkyd, which is a substance that makes the oil dry more quickly and keeps the oil paint from cracking over the years. Carl changed his career from dance to painting, "Until I learned to paint, I had no way of expressing all the emotions and impressions that continually enthrall me living in the West. All around me I see beauty. Form, color, line and texture combine to evoke some sort of visceral response from me. Painting is how I interact with my environment. I see the landscape in a theatrical way: strong light, usually from the side, emotionally colored, suggesting the human figure. My paintings are for people who love form, substance, color and a strong statement."
