SUMMARY:April— "Connections"\, Sarah B. Hansen\, Susan Luckey Higdon\, Tracy Leagjeld
DESCRIPTION:S A R A H  B. H A N S E N\nS U S A N  L U C K E Y  H I G D O N\nT R A C Y  L E A G J E L D\n\n  \nThese three friends have been painting together en plein air since 2019 and open a shared exhibit\,\nApril 3\, from 3-7pm during the Old Mill District First Friday Gallery Walk. It seemed like a good time to show some of the\nplein air works as well as studio paintings inspired by their time exploring\, absorbing and depicting the beauty of the Cascades. \nEach fall the artists gather for an annual trip\, camping for several nights in the Central Oregon Cascades\nand spending their days painting on site\, immersed in the landscape. \n  \n\nDevils Lake Plein Air\, Sarah B. Hansen \n  \nThis time together is deeply restorative—a pause for contemplation\, meaningful conversation\, renewed friendship\,\nand connection with nature.At the heart of their tradition is connection:\nto one another\, to the creative process\, and to nature herself. Healing happens here. Bonds deepen. \n  \n\nBreath of the Pines South Sister\, Sarah B. Hansen \n  \nPainting plein air is a way of seeing deeply. While working as quickly as possible to chase the light as it moves across the sky\nand everything changes\, the artist also slows down and notices details that would otherwise be overlooked.\nThe three agree that after being outside painting\, “we’re both exhilarated and exhausted. There’s really nothing like it.” \n  \n\nDevils Lake Plein Air\, Susan Luckey Higdon \n  \nAlongside reflection\, there is also thoughtful exchange about the practice\, techniques\,\nand business of being a working artist\, making growth an essential part of the experience. \n  \n\nLight Show\, Susan Luckey Higdon \n  \nOn the final morning\, all of the plein air paintings created during the week are laid out for group discussion.\nThe artists analyze\, critique\, and refine the work\, learning from one another through open and supportive dialogue. \n  \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReturning home\, each artist carries fresh inspiration and a renewed sense of purpose into the studio\,\ncompleting more deeply felt works that reflect the shared experience and the landscape that shaped it.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSparks Lake Plein Air\, Tracy Leagjeld\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis exhibition features both the plein air paintings created during the week\nin the Cascades and studio works that grew directly from that time exploring together.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeavenly Garden\, Tracy Leagjeld\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n• • • • • • • • • • • • •\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCome enjoy this exhibit during our First Friday reception. Chat with the artists\, enjoy some special food\,\nand immerse yourself in the artwork throughout the gallery from 3-7pm\, April 3.  \nBe part of our vibrant First Friday Gallery Walk and take in all of the galleries and studios in the Old Mill District—\nLubbesmeyers Studio & Gallery\, Stacks Studios & Gallery(just upstairs)\, Tumalo Art Co.\nas well as various stores hosting artists every month.
