In April Partners Gallery is showing the mixed media works of Rachel Binah. Rachel says: “Having moved to Bend, Oregon to live on a farm with my family, I’ve been inspired by not only what is in my past, living on the stunning coast of Mendocino, but what is now my new home landscape of the High Desert in Oregon. I am still inspired by recycling discarded bits of paper, plastics and other materials. Some of these new pieces have sewn elements, and I am again inspired by using more colors than in previous work. My impressionist body of work is a tribute to the peaceful and meditative qualities that I feel when in connection to our High Desert.”
There is a Second Saturday Meet the Artist April 11 from 5-7pm.
Gallery hours are Thursday through Monday 11-4pm.
