Symmetrical rectangular shapes with various wildlife animals on it using mixed media. On the bottom of the piece are fish and sealife animals, the middle of the piece features land animals, and the top has flying and gliding animals., jeanne fingerhut; 1990; fish and wildlife; oregon tapestry; mm/canvas; 5x6 feet, "I see Life as a journey, an adventure, a mystery to unravel. The challenge is to reconnect with my essential Self, my true Nature and then to express that Nature freely and joyfully as a contribution to Life. The process is a perfect circle. When I make art, I feel happy, truly alive and in touch with a sense of higher mind and higher purpose. I desire that my work be a mirror touching the uniqueness of each viewer and encouraging that Self to emerge." JEANNE FINGERHUT Jeanne Fingerhut was born in New York City, received her B.A. from Barnard College and her M.A. from the University of Paris - Sorbonne where she studied as a Fulbright Scholar. Although she painted and drew from early childhood, she did not pursue the study of art. Instead she became a teacher of foreign language specializing in phonetics and academic research. Life's events, however, led her into many artistic professions...textile design, illustration, hand-painted fashion...reminding her that painting and drawing were her greatest source of pleasure and expression. And so, while raising three sons and working in the fields of art, music and language, she painted consistently and showed her work in New York during the 1970's. In 1983 she relocated to the Pacific Northwest to devote full energies to art. Her work has expanded to include all varieties of mixed media, cut-out collage paintings and, most recently, hand colored etchings which reveal her interest in strong composition, juxtaposed pattern and design craftsmanship. Her art is included in private, corporate and public collections in the United States and abroad. Ms. Fingerhut died in 2002.

There are two steps that ascend to the doorway from a cobblestone walkway., Tom Fawkes; porta giardino dei simplici; acrylic on wood; 49x70x3 inches; ohsu movable, A well-known Portland artist, Tom Fawkes, renders beautifully detailed photorealist landscape paintings and constructions in acrylic., watercolor and pastel. Through the use of Trompe L'Oeil painted shadows and constructed elements, Fawkes is able to translate the light, space and atmosphere of an environment in a way that is immediate and involving. Fawkes shows his work regularly in Seattle and Portland as well as numerous invitational exhibitions nationally. Public collections include: Safeco Corp., Seattle, Kaiser Foundation, Portland, Western Bank Corporation, Los Angeles, Seattle Art Museum, Portland Art Museum and the Phillip Morris Collection at Oregon Freeze Dry, Albany, Oregon. Tom Fawke's most recent work will reflect his continuing fascination with the Italian landscape and gardens. This interest was fostered after receiving the Rockefeller Foundation Grant in 1987 in which Fawkes was artist-in-residence at the Foundation Center in Bellagio, Italy.
