Among the artists to be featured include American artist and poet, Bob Domin at D. Fairweather House and Gardens.

Domin shows efforts from his “New Vistas” tour, a decade long tour of ten in spring locations, one year each. It began in Stauton, Virginia in the Shenandoah Valley, and most recently, the high plains of Santa Fe, New Mexico.

The artist has been painting Oregon since the spring of 2011, and has captured the painted ladies, Victorian houses in Astoria and iconic churches. With vista stop, Domin begins an in-depth study of the area’s history, than creates the spirit of each locale in paintings.

His artwork has sold for thousands of dollars or been traded for life’s essentials. Domin will be working on colored drawings, used as painting preliminaries.

“Through Domin’s paint brush, contrasts of color are expressed through an artist’s eye and hand, stroke by stroke, showing the assembly of perception, the technical decisions of lines and planes that play out to become fine art featuring locales in modernist values,” said Denise Fairweather.

The Fairweather’s showing and a silent auction will be a benefit for the Clatsop County Humane Society. 

Hors d’oeuvres will be offered at the Fairweather event by Chef Sharon Krask for the February Art Walk.

The gallery is located in the historic Gilbert District of downtown Seaside, at 612 Broadway. For more information go to: www.fairweatherhouseandgarden.com.
