Main Gallery Exhibit
Adventures in Experience: Imaginative Works by Dianne Jean Erickson & Barbara Martin
March 1 – April 12, 2019
Reception, Friday, March 15, 5:30 – 8:00 pm
Portland artists, Dianne Jean Erickson and Barbara Martin create highly imaginative contemporary works. Erickson creates encaustic monotypes and mixed media prints. Martin uses acrylic, oil pastel and pencil in her mixed media paintings. Their work is infused with energy and expression.
Dianne Jean Erickson has a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art from Southern Oregon University. She is a founding member of the contemporary art group AMBUS. For a number of years she had a co-op gallery in Jacksonville then Medford. She has received numerous awards for her artwork and has exhibited throughout the West Coast. She resides in Portland. Dianne uses multiple mediums including, but not limited to, encaustic, acrylic, oil and cold wax, and collage. She works by intuition – a process of creating, figuring out what works, what to keep, and what to abandon. Dianne states, “Creating art energizes me, it’s a place where time is altered, where all my feelings and emotions appear at some time or another; pleased, tired, upbeat, excited, harried, surprised, and hopefully at some point, satisfied.”
Barbara Martin has a MBA as a certified creativity coach. Barbara has received numerous awards including a recent professional development grant from the Regional Arts and Culture Council of Oregon. She has exhibited throughout the Northwest. She describes her painting method as a “process of painting intuitively with many primordial (and sometimes surreal) connections flowing naturally into her work”. She finds further inspiration in repressed dreams and the natural world. The paintings in this exhibit are part of the ongoing “Super Ply and Friends” series and consist of black and white paintings on bare plywood. As a process painter, she allows each painting to develop organically so the character and context are not preplanned. Barbara has lived on three continents and in twelve states. She now lives in the Portland area.
Dianne Jean Erickson and Barbara Martin will be at the March 15, Third Friday art reception. Barbara Martin will do a demonstration of her unique process of painting.

Betty Barss has been painting for close to five decades. She taught fifth and sixth grade art in the Medford schools for twenty-five years. Her painting expertise is with watercolor paint. She is a member of the Watercolor Society of Oregon, Southern Oregon Society of Artists, and the Artists’ Workshop. She has received several awards and has exhibited throughput the Northwest. Her work is exuberant in color. Barss describes her use of color in her work, “Color is an element I can’t live without. For that reason, many of my paintings are vivid and might have unusual colors.

Capturing Beauty: Paintings by Sheri Dinardi , Ilene Gienger-Stanfield, and David Terry
January 11 – February 22, 2019
Artists Sheri Dinardi, Ilene Gienger-Stanfield, & David Terry create luminous works in the time honored tradition of oil painting. Their paintings of people, structures, and landscapes beautifully capture a moment in time and the essence of the subject. The Capturing Beauty exhibit features three artists who paint in the traditional oil medium. Creating figurative oil paintings requires talent, training, skill, and perseverance. The process of creating an oil painting requires many hours work due to the slow drying time and the paint properties required in layering the colors. The paintings in this exhibit reflect the expertise of these three artists. They are rich in luminous colors and are of profound beauty. While many of the works are reminiscent of great paintings from the past, each of these artists has developed their own artistic style.
Refreshments from Harry & David will be served at the reception.
