Paul Brent, sponsored by the Gilbert
Block Building, is an artist whose
work has become internationally
known to represent the coastal
lifestyle. From his watercolors to his
recent oil paintings, he captures na-
ture in its best and most idyllic form.

are equally indicative of his talent to
recreate all aspects of nature.

variety of perspectives around the

idea of shadow; shadow as opposite,
refl ection, repetition, companion,
or as enabled by light,” Copenhaver
said. “I have expressed “Shadows”
through a variety of works, bold and
expressive, muted and gentle, solid
and soft edges, and layers of dark and
light. I am naturally moved to create
a sense of mystery in my painting and
hope that my work for “Shadows” pro-
Apartments
vides the space to engage and create
a personal story and interpretation of
shadow.”

Presents the second in a series of
exhibits, featuring up-and-coming
artists from the Pacifi c Northwest:
Stefanie Shilling and Nanette
Tsatsaronis.
Becoming an artist takes
skill, time and talent. Becoming
a successful artist is not easy
(downright diffi cult, some will tell
you). However, despite its diffi culty,
art is a calling, and few who venture
into the world of artistic expression
regret it. Being creative is hard work,
but enormously rewarding.
To the artist and their patrons,
art is a win-win proposition;
everyone wins when an artist shares
their artistic expression with others.
In pursuit of this goal, artists put
creative thoughts and imagery onto
canvases, paper, glass, metal, pot-
tery and a multitude of other media
for others to enjoy. This month the
gallery is highlighting two women
artists who have done the hard work
and are ready to take a well-earned
step forward in their artistic careers.

entrepreneur who works with local

nary fares. Dough Dough features
an encore exhibit from artist Scott
Colin Johnson, whose art is rooted
in the study of en plein air (open air)
painting.
T.anjuli Gallery
7 North Holladay Drive
Artist Billy Lutz is the gallery
owner/resident artist/Seaside
philosopher, whose body of work
spans a career of 30 years of mature
thematic art of the resistance
painting.
Artist’s statement: There are
two modern forms of governance
in American culture: the conserva-
tive, Strict Father model and the
progressive Nurturing Parent model.
The fi rst prescribes an individualist
authority instructing one how to
behave — “we know what’s best
for you, so do what you are told” —
while the other model prescribes
consensus and collective thinking
— “let’s discuss our problems and
arrive at compromise.”
