Southern Oregon Artists Resource

My goal in creating images is to cause one to pause for a moment, look and ponder. Each photo reflects my belief that we are challenged by uncertainty and blessed with mystery. Rio Querencia, River of Serenity, is both a state of mind and my home on the Applegate River in Southern Oregon.

Alicia came to the US from Poland in 1969 at age 16, later graduating from the Univ. of Maryland in art and Johns Hopkins in liberal arts. She writes of her work: "Creativity is often squashed by trying too hard. But, as I set aside rational mind, my hands can express the subconscious. This mysterious process guides the results."

Alx Fox is an experimental mixed media artist whose works are often noted for their unique style, elegance and technique. Her use of striking colors and strong 3-dimensional textures has resulted in an innovative style of abstract expressionism. She is also adept at creating commercial works and readily communicates the vision of her clientele.

Ann Hackett creates expressive abstract acrylic paintings. Exploring her own creativity as part of self exploration and personal growth after a career in the business world, she approaches her work by sitting with her feelings and expressing them through her brush using broad strokes and bright colors in acrylic on canvas or paper.

A member of the Watercolor Society of Oregon, Anne's award winning watercolors have been displayed throughout the West Coast. She has taught drawing and watercolor for 15 years, helping to develop many prize-winning artists, and recently formed Art Presence, a group promoting Jacksonville visual artists.
