Sisters Fourth Friday Art Stroll on June 24
Summer is here, and again
large crowds are expected
to experience and enjoy the
wide variety of beautiful art
that Sisters’ many galleries
have to offer at the Fourth
Friday Art Walk on June 24
from 4 to 7 p.m.
Hood Avenue Art is fea-
turing oil painter Katherine
Taylor, who uses mood, color,
and paint texture to form
two-dimensional images that
suggest a three-dimensional
experience; and Jeff and
Heather Thompson, glass art-
ists who create an intelligent
blend of contemporary and
traditional glass-blown sculp-
tures. Join them for food,
wine and great music as they
celebrate the beginning of
their third successful year in
business.
Gary Cooley’s Collection
Gallery highlights local art-
ist Jim Horsley, who brings
a freshness and honesty to
his oil paintings that stirs
the imagination and appeal
of Central Oregon’s Western
heritage.
Clearwater Gallery’s 11th
Annual Miniature Show will
run Friday, June 24, from 4 to
6 p.m., with art, artists, wine,
light appetizers, and a sense
of community. Preview some

play work from local art-
ists Charity Alva and Wendy
Bachmeier; mosaic jewelry

Twigs Gallery features
Judy Hoiness, a well-known
Bend artist, who uses a mixed
media approach with vintage
textiles, printing, painting,
and drawing in this series.
She and Jean Wells have
worked collaboratively with
abstract landscape as their
theme. Jean explores the
colors and textures of our
Central Oregon landscape as
well as the beach.
Ken Scott’s Imagination
Gallery, owner and artist Ken
Scott will display several new
works in his “Steampunk”
genre. Other artists will fea-
ture new paintings in water-
colors, oils and acrylics,
fused stained-glass scenery,

birdbaths and lamps, chande-
liers, garden lights and scen-
ery in metal. Don’t miss the
fascinating music and great
refreshments.
Studio Redfield is fea-
turing wood artists Greg
Davidge and Laurence Dyer.
Over the past thirty years,
they have shared a love of the
various woods that they use
in their craft. The beautiful
boxes designed and made by
Laurence Dyer feature combi-
nations of exotic woods such
as koa and mango in combi-
nation with regional materials
such as agate and elk antler.
Greg Davidge works with
exotic woods to create beauti-
ful turned bowls and furniture
pieces.
