Southern Oregon Artists Resource

A Southern Oregon artist who has painted on walls from Oregon to Cambodia! I believe in affordable, accessible art and enjoy creating large, bold paintings in contemporary styles. I also enjoy creating classic portraits, landscapes and drawings when I have the time for such demanding and intricate work. I received my training at Southern Oregon Art School and Rogue Community College, as well as private lessons.

Leah exhibits her abstract and portraiture work nationally and internationally and has been commissioned for over 400 paintings over the past 15 years. Her studio is in Ashland where she teaches painting, drawing, art marketing and making natural earth paints.

Ron specializes in black & white imagery using traditional techniques; Dee, an artist, works in color and loves using her computer to work with the images she's taken. Together they travel the Western states capturing new images and creating fine photography, both independently and as a team whose collaborations artfully blend their combined talents.

Glenn Hill creates custom sculpted harps and multimedia installations including lasers, interactive lighting and silk painting. Also a visual artist, he paints in acrylic on canvas and board and paints/prints on silk. Look for his public art installation in Ashland, to be completed and on display in Summer 2011: 19 painted/ printed silk banners, to be hung over a mile route in Ashland, linking the Havurah with the new Buddhist Temple.

Artist Mae Wygant creates from her studio in historic Jacksonville. Profoundly inspired by Nature, her fertile imagination and mastery of style, medium and technique have produced a substantial catalog of work from very literate to full modern abstract, a style she focuses upon now.

Growing up a third generation artist, Maranda came to love the arts at a very young age. Pursuing art throughout high school, Maranda won best in state in the Junior Federal Duck Stamp three consecutive years. After graduating, she discovered oils and figures and hasn't looked back!

I first started working with stained glass in 1982 and most of my work involved windows with landscapes. With the development of fusible glass a new world of possibilities arose - it can be blown, kiln-casted or formed with a torch, colors layered and shading achieved. I have been fortunate to study under three world-renowned glass artists: Miriam DiFiore, Roger Thomas and Kathleen Sheard. My passion is Nature and my pieces are all about landscapes and wildlife.

Anderst uses her illustrative style to form fictional but plausible unions of biological and man-made structures on canvas. She spent her childhood poring over her father's anatomy books, developing an intense passion for botany, neurology, entomology, evolution and oil paints. She received art education at Southern Oregon Art Academy, Gage Academy in Seattle and in 2010 melded her scientific and art interests with a certificate in Natural Science Illustration at the University of Washington.
