Guache not Squash
January 2016 at the Bandon Library Art Gallery:
The exquisitely detailed, beautifully realized birds painted in guache by Ken Michaelson are the works of a master. The iridescent sheen of a mallard's head, or the light in a golden eye are brought to vivid life in these paintings. Also on display are his rarer, equally rich, oil paintings of scenes of the natural world.
In the cases, Ginny Gibson's small clay figures make delightful tableaux of everyday life: the pleasures of reading outdoors, visiting with a friend, a beloved dog's companionship. These little scenes crystalize the emotion of such familiar moments, while avoiding sentimentality or kitsch. Her handmade tiles and other objects will accompany the figures.
The show runs from the 1st through the 31st of January. There will be a reception for the artists on Sunday, January 3rd, from 1-3 pm, in the Sprague Room; Ken Michaelson prints and originals will be available for purchase.

Quarterly Art Show
Call to Artists
Symbols—Past,
Present, Future
The Southern Coos Hospital
& Health Center will host a show of artworks created using symbols from the
past or present or ones speaking to the future.
You are invited to reflect upon petroglyphs, hieroglyphs, or other
ancient symbols and means of communication, record keeping or mark making. Your
own cultural heritage, past family stories—real and imaginary—could be
included, as could your own artist-created symbols. Artists may enter 1-3 pieces using painting,
collage, mixed media, drawing, photography or assemblage in all artistic
styles: representational, abstract, or futuristic. All works must be able to be hung on the
wall.
Please remember that art on
the hospital walls is meant to entertain and de-stress the patients, families,
staff and general visitors. It is not a
venue for nudity, violence, morbidity, or a political soapbox. Thank you for your continued positive
approach to art in these shows.
