In a previous post we announced our Fall Bounty event at High Desert Gallery in Sisters Oregon. The fine art exhibition and sale is part of “Celebrate National Art and Framing Month” at High Desert gallery and includes some of Central Oregon's best and brightest contemporary artists. The Fall “Bounty” show opens on October 1 runs and through October 31, 2008 with an Open House Reception on October 11 & 12th. Several guest artists have joined in on the fun and have contributed one or more original paintings as part of the group “Bounty” show. We hope you can stop by the gallery in October and especially during Sisters' Fall Harvest Fair on the weekend of October 11th and 12th.
A Central Oregon icon and nationally
known Oregon artist, Paul Alan Bennett has captured fruits of the
labor and the resulting year end gardening tasks in a wonderful
watercolor (gouache) on paper, titled “Red Wheelbarrow.” Please
join us in October to view this and many more “Bounty” works of
art from special guest and gallery artists including Paul
The end of summer brings the abundance of the harvest as well as the time to clean out the garden beds. At the Sisters Community Garden this is a big group effort, taking a variety of garden tools and wheelbarrows going back and forth from the owner's garden spot to the compost piles. As a group effort, it is an enjoyable time. Each wheelbarrow load is a clear way to measure one's efforts. This can be very satisfying. The whole process is a good way to be aware of the cycle of the seasons and to share with others in the community. -- Paul Alan Bennett, October 2008.
