Nature’s Tapestry: Paintings by Linda Boutacoff, Pam Haunschild, and Eve Margo Withrow
August 12–September 23
Reception: Friday, August 19, 5:30-8 pm
Local artists, Eve Margo Withrow, Pam Haunschild, and Linda Boutacoff honor the peace, excitement, and beauty of nature with their abstract paintings. Color, form, and texture intertwine into intriguing nature scenes in these three artists’ distinctive, complimentary works.
Linda’s paintings reflect her love of nature and the Northwest, as well as her background in graphic design. Her work is recognized for mastery in creating delicate visual statements through the bold use of design and color. Linda holds a BA in Commercial Art from San Jose State University. She worked as a graphic artist in San Francisco and Austin, Texas. Linda has lived in southern Oregon since 1972.
Pam Haunschild explores nature in her work that goes beyond realism and provides a unique and powerful vision of her natural subjects that deepens the connection between the viewer and the natural world. Her distinctive style is colorful, highly textured, and semi-abstract, but the natural forms can be identified. She works in water media — both acrylics and watercolor. Pam had a career as a social science professor at Stanford and University of Texas-Austin. Having a life-long love of painting, Pam now paints full time.
Eve Margo Withrow is an internationally known, award-winning professional artist creating paintings in water media. She was an art teacher for over forty years. Eve seeks to guide viewers to awaken their innate creativity and thus their essential self by experiencing the brilliance and joy of self-expression. Her work is colorful, bold, and rhythmic.

Nature’s Elegance: Sculpture by Joe Garnero and Photography by Allan Rowell
January 14—March 4, 2022
These two Southern Oregon artists foster the magnificence of nature by finding, editing, and preserving the formal beauty of botanical life. Rowell nurtures the flora in his garden, and then captures their ephemeral beauty in his striking photographs. Garnero pays homage to the redwood trees by salvaging their roots and refining them into majestic sculptures.
