Visual Art
Art by Carrie Tasman
Carrie paints vistas and views from our beautiful mid-Willamette Valley. She grew up in a magical world mostly outdoors, climbing apple trees, playing games in the street, ice skating, busily exploring, discovering, and day dreaming (and doing chores too, of course!).
Carrie's sketchbooks are full of flowers, leaves, bugs and butterflies, birds, vases and vistas, sunsets, and cloud formations, which fuel her paintings and bring her joy every day.

Dominique's Watercolors
@bacheled​
​
Dominique has always loved the quote by Nikos Kazantzakis: "You have your brush, you have your colors, you paint paradise, then in you go."
Watercolor painting is her escape from global problems. Birds, squirrels, frogs, flowers, and familiar landscapes inspire Dominique to leave the challenging realities of her scientific work and enjoy the beauty and lightness of the natural world.
Sharing those feelings through her paintings, she tries to emulate Maya Angelou’s advice “Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.”
