Hello
There are some great projects I am participating in this Summer. In June to of my pieces were chosen for the Oregon Society of Artist Rose festival show with “Peninsula Landscape” getting an honorable mention. The show is up through June 23. More information can be found at OSArtist.org
With the Elisabeth Jones Art center, I have work in two Artist stipen projects. In June, my portrait of Joanne Hyppolite, Curator at the National Museum of African American History and Culture at the Smithsonian hangs in the front hall. It is part of the “My Favorite Things” Series that included artists painting portraits (on zoom).
In July at Elisabeth Jones a painting done on location for their “Emergency Tree Response” will hang with this on going series, bringing attention to saving trees marked for removal. More information is at Elisabethjones.art
Look for an exhibition of landscapes at Radius Studios in July, as well as the showing of my completed portrait series of the Portland Film Festival Staff in the Fall.
In addition i have work at the Akeemi Salon on Williams Ave and still a large amount of past work at the wonderful Cassidy’s restaurant! Check it out. cassidysrestaurant.com
Hope to see you all in person soon!

Hello, Hope you all are doing well with new Normal.. This June, I am in two shows on this theme. ;)
One is with the Oregon Society of Artist, The Art of Sheltering in Place. Two of my pieces can be viewed on the website. https://www.osagallery.org/about-2 It is a fundraiser for the Portland Area Artist Emergency Relief fund.
Also in June, An interesting show, The View from Here at the Elisabeth Jones Art Center includes three of my watercolors. Open by appointment with a possible up-coming reception. (dependent on Portland lifting quarantine restrictions on art venues.) https://theviewfromhereejart.wordpress.com/
Finally, This spring i completed a series of Portraits. They were so fun to do. The average length of the sitting is an hour and a half. I am available to paint portraits with social distancing or even out doors. http://www.leahfaureart.com/index#/portraits
Thanks for reading! See you soon, Leah
“The View from Here” A two part show of international artist and local, open by appointment at Elisabeth Jones Art Center. https://www.elisabethjones.art/
Check out my work in the Oregon Society of Artists show, The Art of Sheltering in Place. The show features art work made while artists were confined to their homes.
Part of the proceeds go to the Portland Area Artists Emergency Relief Fund.
It was such good timing. This spring, I decided to do a portrait series of ten friends. They would sit for only an hour and half. After that, I did a little touch up in the studio and often put in the back grounds. It is such a pleasure, sitting and chatting with these friends. The process is of great benefit to hone my portrait painting craft. Portraits available even at 6ft apart !!!
Currently my paintings hand in the beautiful Portland Classic bar, Cassidy’s. With a bulit in wood bar, lined with windows and warm paneling, I am so happy to have my Portland Landscape in their dining space. Check them out. Near Burnside and 13th, Cassidy’s is at 1331 SW Washington.( Try the grilled roman salad!) Cassidysrestaurant.com
