A pencil drawing of a lake with a man wearing a hat in a canoe with two paddles above the water.

To the left are cattail plants with a bird atop the tallest one., Still Waters;, A Yorkshire man by birth. Richard settled in Oregon by way of London and Los Angeles. He enjoys the challenge of pencil because there are no shortcuts to assure a satisfying picture. Pencil reduces the subject to shape and light which color often masks. He hopes the lack of color helps the viewers to dwell on the inherent forms in each picture., The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.

A pastel art lansdcape featuring an estuary scene. In the background is an overcast sky., Estuary at Gearhart; [no.] 4, Allan Stephenson is an artist who draws his inspiration from the natural landscape particularly that of his native British Isles and also that of the Pacific Northwest where he now makes his home. *I am always looking for and attempting to communicate with the viewer that special sense of place that infuses some areas of the natural world with meaning, wonder and beauty. I hope my work can provide some escape from the sometimes frenetic world we all live in. I am a traditionalist. I don't see the art I produce as breaking any kind of new ground but rather I apply myself to existing forms and attempt to inject perhaps fresh content. I am currently enjoying the medium of pastel for it's direct hands-on quality that allows me to blend and sculpt the pigment using my fingers and hands rather than the intermediary of a brush.* (excerpt from artist's exhibition list), http://www.allanstephenson.com/index.php, The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.
