Hoffman Gallery Show August 2022
August 4-28 | 1:00-5:00pm
Thursdays through Sundays
Hoffman Center for the Arts | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita
Featuring the works of ALXSw,
George Wilson, and Kopali Serna

Artists’ statement: ALXSw –

“Studying martial arts introduced me to Shodo and Zen traditional works. I’ve been deeply impacted by studying the use of empty space in the works of Zen Reishis. Additionally, the placement of an artist’s chops (the red seals) are the final balancer of a composition. Like most 2D arts the first works of a student of Shodo (the art of the brush) are precise, structured, predictable as identifiable kanji or phrases, as with realism in western painting; the orange in a bowl is predictably recognizable. There is no strain or inquiry required to extract any particular meaning.”

Artists’ statement” George Wilson –

“I paint watercolors, soaking the paper, sometimes on both sides and applying washes of color and tone wet on wet to create atmosphere and form. As the paper dries I add detail and structure using sketchbook and memory as source material. I like to paint the shapes of birds and sea stacks; the vertical staccato of old river pilings, the wake of ducks on the river.”

Artists’ statement: Kopali Serna –

“This series explores the story of a hearth that lay frozen for generations but has undergone a time of thawing and regeneration. I conceptualized the series from my perspective as a self-taught indigenous artist, at one point separated from my traditions through the impact of colonization, but now intuitively and joyfully rejoined.”

The gallery is free and open to the public.

Howdy – Jeff and the JW Merc roadside “pop-up” booth will be back in WHEELER this coming TUESDAY the 16th of August – from at least 12-5 pm. Local bee pollen will be in the cooler ($10 per bag) – and plenty of local raw honey (from various collection points of the NW in all colors/sizes etc) jars to suit any palate or price point. Real Vermont maple syrup from the single family farm is as popular as ever! (REALLY – it never was just for pancakes in the first place) – all available sizes of jar/jug style – and some of the barrel-aged variety as well (ask Jeff). Pre-orders are always helpful – text Jeff on his cell: 208-424-0042 – e-mail if you prefer: jwmerc@gmail.com – and of course messaging directly through the JW Merc Facebook page is always an option. We’ll see you in our usual “pop-up” spot (in front of the building where Pelican and Piper have their newly-expanded store across from the train stop at Hwy 101 and Rector Street) on TUESDAY THE 16TH!!! jw

CONSIDER MINDFULNESS

Have you noticed that meditation teachers seem to be popping up all over the place? Perhaps you’ve heard about Mindfulness, but don’t know what it’s all about. This is your opportunity to explore this practice which might just change your life!
Are you one of those people who think you “can’t meditate”, or are afraid to try? You can learn this simple practice which helps us to learn to live more skillfully, see ourselves more clearly, and be more at ease with the constant changes of life. I promise, there’s no levitation required!

Everyone 15 years old or older is welcome to join us for a five week class on Monday evenings beginning Sept. 12th at 5:00 p.m. at St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church in Nehalem. Come explore the possibilities, and share the quiet space and self discovery with others. We’ll have time for a talk, questions and answers, and guided practice.

I am a long time Nehalem resident who began this this practice in the late 1980’s, having had the good fortune to study and practice with many renowned teachers over the years. I’ve already taught classes here, and am now excited to share it with more of you. I’m currently completing a two year international training with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach and other luminaries in the field.

I’m sincerely hoping you will join us.

Warmly,
Lark Miller
