SUMMARY:Helen Brown —The Spectrum of Birthstones
DESCRIPTION:Above Turquoise Deep  \n  \nWhat better way to study color than to concentrate on the 12 birthstones of the calendar? Helen Brown will do just that in her May show at Tumalo Art Co. “I like the idea of examining color as a gem because each stone reflects many variations of its color through facets and light.” \n“Amethyst Fields Forever” is for the February birthstone and is a scene of Mt. Hood with a lavender field in the foreground.\n  \nHelen’s exhibit will include twelve new watercolor paintings\, each focused on one gemstone’s color. The subject of her work is broad\, including landscapes\, flowers\, a night-time cityscape and even an old automobile. An award-winning watercolorist\, her most recent being an award of distinction in the Watercolor Society of Oregon’s Spring Aqueous Media show now on display at the Barber Library at Central Oregon Community College until May 29\, for her painting\, Vestiges of Mt. Mazama. She uses a unique process referred to as watercolor batik\, using a wax resist process. This\, combined with painting on rice paper\, gives her images texture and contrast. \nThe details of the engine grill on an old=time truck is the subject to the Emerald birthstone.\n  \nHelen’s natural curiosity helps her to step outside of her comfort zone to explore painting all kinds of subjects. She became interested in the history surrounding the Lewis & Clark expedition which resulted in her show\, My Journey with Lewis & Clark\, first exhibiting at Tumalo Art Co in 2016\, and then at the Oregon Historical Society in Portland from 2017-2018. Helen\nregularly paints landscapes from around her home in Central Oregon\, from alpine forest and mountains to high desert\, as well as scenes from the many places she travels including a family cabin in Montana and the sojourns to the southwest. Previously a french teacher\, she has lived in France and Australia. \n  \nFinding a Garnet colored prom gown in the middle of white and ivory fancy dresses challenged Helen’s desire to paint.\n  \nFor this show Helen has chosen unusual subjects like a rack full of gowns for the garnet birthstone and an old green automobile for the emerald birthstone\, and a white winter forest of aspen. Many of these various subjects are filled with complexity\, which she deals with expertly\, retaining the important details that help the viewer explore the piece. \n  \n“Ruby Redhead”\, a detail of fireweed is the perfect combination of color and simplifying complexity using contrast and highlights.\n  \nFind you birthstone! \nJanuary — Garnet\nFebruary — Amethyst\nMarch — Aquamarine\nApril — Diamond\nMay — Emerald\nJune — Pearl\nJuly — Ruby\nAugust — Peridot\nSeptember — Sapphire\nOctober — Opal\nNovember — Topaz\nDecember — Turquoise \nFor the Topaz birthstone\, aspen leaves are a natural.\n  \nHelen Brown’s exhibit opens May 5\, and will run through May 30. Come in and see the spectrum of birthstones in diverse images. \n  \n
