Featured Artist at Catherine Bede Gallery

Preparations are winding down as I complete the inventory and pack my car. I've been invited to be the featured artist at a local gallery during the Hillsboro First Tuesday Art Walk and I'm excited to present my work to my new community. I'm taking lots of smalls, paintings and collages in an affordable price range, along with a few larger works. As well as the Art Walk, the weekly Farmers Market will fill part of Main Street, which will be closed to traffic, making it easy for pedestrians to wander among galleries, restaurants, food carts, and farmers produce. Live music in several shops add to the excitement, as does the roar of vintage cars showcased in front of the courthouse. I can hardle contain myself. I've been obsessed with painting flowers. I began in the winter, learning to see and paint lovely posies from Trader Joes, and now am painting flowers that grow in my own front yard. Here's an example of a 6 x 6" flower painting on a wood panel. Save the date, October 18-19 for Washington County Open Studios. I'm participating this year and sharing my space with pastelist Harley Talkington. More about that later. I'd love to hear from you. Comment below or email me at joreimer-at-comcast.net.
