Late summer at Easy Lane Frames & Select Art Gallery

3440 Broadway in North Bend


Our current featured show, “Endless Summer….if it ever comes” is a must see. Artists were asked to depict their impressions of summer: the colors, scents, activities and favorite locations. There is a great variety of work submitted for the show including jewelry, photography, acrylics, inks and watercolors. The artists participating in the show are: Judy Daboling, Jean Nolan, Christy Sanders, Cheri Barnes, Carol Young, Vanessa Jorgensen, Carol and Ron Miranda, Sherry Howk, Stephanie Donaldson, Shinan Barclay, Andrea Dixon, Shirley MacLean, Jean Kyle and gallery owners Jane and Ken Snoddy. Visitors to the gallery are asked to select their choice for “Best of Show”. That artist will win a $50 gift certificate and one of the visitors will also win a $50 gift certificate. These certificates may be used to purchase artwork, framing and matting or for an art class in the gallery. You may vote each time you visit the gallery…don’t miss you chance. The work is visually exciting and depicts summer as we wish it was! When you come to gallery we hope that you have the time to check out all of the other work from the 47 artists who have work on the display in the gallery.

We hope that you will allow us to give you a bid on your next matting and/or framing job. We really enjoy assisting you to make choices which really enhance your work. Matting and framing are like the frosting on the cake…it might taste fine without it but, boy, does it look great with it! Our computerized mat cutter allows us to cut fancy mats with intricate corners, v-grooves, cut outs or debossed designs. We also have an imaging program that allows you to view your artwork in the mat and frame before you make your purchase. Just ask for a demonstration. It’s not too early to start getting work framed for fall shows. We also have equipment to dry mount work or to shrink wrap for preservation. We also carry a supply of clear bags in sizes from small cards up to 16” x 20” work. Come in and let us see if we can help you.

We are working on setting up classes for fall and winter and request your input. If you are interested in taking a class in the gallery stop by and add your name and info to our mailing list. The classes currently in the planning stages are Drawing, Oil techniques workshop, watercolor, collage and more. Come and check out our space.
