Contemporary Art Show with luminous paintings by Shaukya Dekker

Submitted By: art@shaukyadekker.com – Click to email about this post
From Graceful Waves Art Gallery in Wheeler:

We are presenting a special Contemporary Art Show/Open House on Sunday June 12 from 2 – 6 PM, featuring the luminous paintings of local visionary artist, Shaukya Dekker.

Described by some as a modern “Dutch Master,” Shaukya’s works are an odyssey of depth, beauty, transcendence, and ecstasy.

The show will feature 22 of Dekker’s original masterpieces; many of them are from her most recent Collections “Gardens of Light” and “Metamorphosis”.

Come enjoy a glass of wine with us and be transported and elevated by her extraordinary visions of light!

Because the Art Show/Open House is ONE DAY ONLY, we are offering a 20% off SALE on her original artwork during the show. Limited edition high quality reproductions on canvas, fine art prints and card sets are also available for purchase.

Don’t miss out on this outstanding opportunity!

Responses to Shaukya’s Art:
“I found Ms. Dekker’s paintings to be incredibly full of life and force. Each painting I viewed had its own distinct character, although sometimes it would take some time before I could tune in to a painting’s particular quality and personality. They all communicated a deep sense of intimacy, of vulnerability — of something deep or mysterious being shown. A secret being shared. Beautiful, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes utterly joyful — the time I spent with her paintings was a ride full of feeling and delight.”

“Shaukya’s paintings vibrate with an intriguing energy, spellbounding the viewer into an unanticipated realm. She relates directly to the canvas with her hands rather than allowing an intermediary paint brush which enables her work to convey an even more direct, living presence. What an unexpected delight to come upon this until now unknown bold work!”

“Viewing each painting became a participatory experience; one filled with wonder and beauty. I felt brightened. I combined with her images at depth. When thus viewing or “living in” Shaukya’s paintings, I found new world; a world of deep resonance with Light and now a place I can live in. May others find her art and be so fortunate!”

Craftsman 12

Craftsman 12″ Compound Sliding Miter Saw 3Hp w/Laser.
Saw works great and is capable of laying the blade down 45 degrees in each direction as well as swinging 45 degrees in each direction. Then having the 12″ blade being able to slide makes it one heck of a cutting machine!
I have three compound miter saws and ‘cutting’ down.

re; American Flag

Hello, as a veteran myself, not a war veteran but none the less I served, I call bullshit. Absolutely no excuse for such behavior. I privately stopped going there years ago, If you are truly a veteran, you’d certainly be more than upset about this, as many of my family members are and are true war veterans. You seem to take delight in cozy up with them merrily indulging, and you ok with that? Proud nuff to even go public. hmm.

American Flag Etiquette

Submitted By: pmocom@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I drove by the Bunkhouse Restaurant today and saw a Trump flag flown above our American Flag on the same halyard. This is a violation of Title 4 United States Code:
§ 7. Position and Manner of Display. C: “When flags of States, cities, or localities, or pennants of societies are flown on the same halyard with the flag of the United States, the latter should always be at the peak.”

I asked the Manzanita Police about the display and was told it falls under the Freedom of Speech Amendment.

Oh well; the First Amendment applies to traitors and liars as well, but this dishonorable display is insulting to all of us; not just our veterans.

I am a Vietnam War combat veteran. This is Memorial Day weekend, a time to honor those fallen serving our country. Men in my squadron were killed and a few spent years as Prisoners of War. RIP Dick Keirn, Cham Chesnutt, Mike Schwan, Ben Ringsdorf, Marty Massucci and Chuck Scharf.
I know that the family that runs the restaurant has nothing to do with the insulting flag display and I shall continue to eat there. I hope that others will continue to enjoy the fine food they provide and ignore the un-American display outside.
