Burger Art Exhibit, Oct. 26

Coos Bay Public Library and local artist Wendy Burger are pleased to exhibit a collection of Burger’s plein air paintings throughout October. Here Burger explains her process:  “After moving to the beautiful Oregon coast three years ago, I was eager to try my hand at landscape painting, en plein air. Long time members of the local Tuesday morning paint outs were very welcoming and encouraging, offering many useful ideas on how to approach the challenges of painting outdoors.  And, it’s been fun, wind, fog, bugs and all. The paintings shown here are most all from the Tuesday morning paintouts, some have been worked on in the studio and a few are studio paintings.  I hope you will recognize places and take a fresh look at them through paint on canvas.” The exhibit is open to the public at 525 Anderson during regular library hours.  For more information call the library at 541.269.1101.
