Jewelry by Sharon Amber S Lambs on the Oregon Coast, just in time for Spring Unveiling N New works by artist Diane Speakman will be featured this weekend during Spring Unveiling in Cannon Beach. Lamb season is upon us and we couldn’t resist the temptation to celebrate these incredible little creatures. Diane Speakman, owner of Sesame and Lilies, has been painting on the Oregon coast for over seventeen years. While Cannon Beach is a main attraction for canines, Sesame and D I A N E Lilies has become a main attraction for their owners. A versatile painter who is best known for her coastal landscapes, she has expanded her repertoir to include bird paintings, dog por- traits and farm animals. Diane paints on canvas and hardboard in acrylic. Over the past couple of years, she has been experimenting with color and form, painting large abstracts on canvas. A reception is planned for Saturday, May 2. Sharon Amber explores the painterly art of cloisonne enameling this spring with new works in silver and gold. The transparent gem colors come alive in her miniature landscapes and seascapes. Sharon lives and works in Cannon Beach, and has practiced the ancient art of cloisonne since 1970. “I love the freedom of expression it affords,” says Sharon, “and I take it seriously, as high-fire enamels can last thousands of years.” Jewelry by Sharon Amber Sandpiper Square #7 503-436-1494 www.sharonamber.com Receptions Friday and Saturday @ 5:30 pm.
