First Friday Art Walk at my newest Bend Art Gallery: Volcano Vineyards Tasting Room

The First First Friday Art Walk for February 2010 is almost upon us and I’d like to officially invite everyone to the Volcano Vineyards Tasting room located at 126 NW Minnesota St(between Bond St and Wall St.) in Downtown Bend.  I’ll be there Friday February 5th between 5PM and 9PM and my Fine Art Photographs will be hanging there through March 2010.  I will have several new fine art photographs on display and the Quons will be playing as well, which should make for an entertaining evening.

As the First Friday art walk for downtown Bend was cancelled for January( because it was on New Years Day) This Art Walk for February should be especially busy and exciting.  Below is another shot of the interior of The Volcano Tasting Room with some of my fine art landscape photographs on the walls.

Finally one last shot of the lovely and affable Liz Ratcliff who along with her husband, Scott, is the owner and operator of Volcano.  If you see Liz on Friday night, buy a glass of their amazing Syrah and tell her the landscape photography looks stunning!

First Friday Art Walk at Luxe Home Interiors in Downtown Bend. Come see the best in Oregon Landscape Photography Oregon

I hope everybody checks their Email one last time before leaving work for the weekend because I”m getting this announcement out a little late.  I’ll be showing my work tonight, Friday June 5th at Luxe Home Interiors in downtown Bend , Oregon.   During Art walks, the wine usually starts flowing at about 5:00PM and end at about 8:30PM.  I’ll be there at about 5:30 due to some parenting responsibilities.   If any of you are in the vicinity, please stop by and say “Hello”.  Luxe is located at 856 NW Bond St.  which is the same street that the Deschutes Brewery is on but Luxe is a couple of blocks to the south.

Bend, Oregon First Friday Spring Art Hop

I’d like to thank all my friends who stopped by to see my landscape photography at Pandora’s Backpack this past Friday.  The event was a big success and the crowds were great.  As usual, the staff at Pandora’s Backpack was great.  Rod, Mo, Jordan, Thad, etc are always accommodating and personable to work with.  I unfortunately wasn’t able to visit the show locations for a couple of friends who were also participating in the spring first Friday Art Hop in downtown.  Jane Tolve and Mary Catherine, if you’re reading this, I hope things went great for you.  I won’t be showing at Pandora’s for the First Friday Art Walk in May as I have another commitment that I’ll announce pretty soon.

The above image of of Middle and North Sister and the rest of the Cascade Crest extending north was a big hit at the art hop.  It is fun to share the mountain line-up all the way into Washington State with people.  If any of you who attended my show have any questions about my work or would like to see one of my fine art landscape photography prints again, please email me or call 541-610-4815.  Once again, thanks to everyone who made the spring art hop a big success.

Take Care,
