For a while we had thought spring had sprung, and then the snows came back. Oh well, it just gives us that much more time working inside on our colored pencil work while we let the weeds grow.
There is a lot going on. Our annual show is up at Carnegie; congratulations to all the winners and to those who entered the show. You must get up to Oregon City and see this show as it has many fine works of colored pencil art. The Carnegie Art Center gallery is open Wednesdays 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturdays 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The show will be up until May 2. We also have a number of artists working on 4x4 squares for inclusion in an Oregon display at the International Exhibition in Seattle this July. From all reports, the Cecile Baird workshop was a winner.
