Easy Lane Frames and Select Gallery News

Our featured show for July will be the work of new gallery artist, Jean Kyle. Jean was an elementary teacher in Coos Bay until retiring a few years ago. She has taken up her watercolors with a passion. Jean took first place in the watercolor division of the BAAA juried show this year with her “Tale of Two Cities” painting of the North Bend Hotel and Broiler. Jean has taken classes from Barbara Mahon, Jane Snoddy, Donna Wright and Fred Vasser. She has a vibrant pallet and is a master at negative painting. Come and view some of her latest work and welcome her to the gallery. Many of her new pieces have originated with a pour which she then brings into focus. Her work is exciting and full of life. This show will open for ArtWalk on July 8th and be featured until August 10th.
