It was a good year.

2014 It was a good year. We began our year focusing on studio visits and invited  our clients to join us. We loved sharing the personal side of our artists Seeing the vision first hand, hearing new ideas while  listening to the artists inspirations. We took a trip to Seattle to visit Kristin Nelson  in her ceramic studio.  Portland to visit Ceramic artist Tom Orr Katherine Mead in Lake Oswego We discovered new artists! Zach Hixson, from McMinnville We checked out the materials and tools In May 2014, we mourned the loss of our  good friend/Artist Robert Hess We know that he stands with us as move sculpture  into our downtown. He was an inspiration, our mentor and our friend. Throughout the year, we worked with businesses  who believed that having art in their space  "Is a must" and not just an extra. We visited clients homes and gave them  many choices to choose from. In the Spring... We had a Pop-Up event and it was quite the  undertaking...starting with a vacant space,  we transformed it into an "art happening" Pulse Throughout the year, we invited clients to our "appointment" Gallery where I was able to share the latest work by our artists. We enjoyed having gatherings with our artists. We have continued our partnership with Willamette  University's Hallie Ford Museum of Art Museum Store Welcome 2015 Take a drive to see this special show at the  Dan and Gail Cannon Gallery of Art.
