Virtual South Town Art Walk Weekend 2020!

The 9th Annual South Town Arts Walk has decided to keep our community safe by going virtual this year. Take a virtual tour of South Corvallis artist’s studios featuring a wide range of handmade art including: hand made jewelry, cold pressed soaps, artisan bread and baked goods, original mandala art, coloring books, paintings, cards + collage, ceramics, sculpture, letterpress prints and cards,  watercolor, photography, ornaments, gift certificates for art classes and so much more!!

This is as local as it gets! Support your neighborhood artists this holiday season! We can’t gather in person but we can continue to support each other and foster a strong sense of community. We’re in this together!  South Town Art Walk Website

NEW MURAL!! "Corvallis- We are el corazòn of the valley"

 

This month I had the wonderful opportunity to help facilitate the collaborative design & installation of a new (temporary) mural in South Corvallis! The Nest Artist Collective, a group of 8 artists, joined together in creating " a love letter to Corvallis". We are all moms navigating the new normal during this pandemic. Our intention has been to brighten the space, boost morale and provide a visual sense of community that serves to uplift during this challenging time.

Virtual Spring Classes at Diana Rose Studio

This Spring, as you all know, has been challenging the way in which we connect as a community. The precautions put in place to keep our community safe in response to COVID-19 has prevented in person teaching at my home studio. In lieu of in person classes I decided to offer an experimental class based on supply kits and online tutorials to a handful of my existing students who wished to continue to create at home during this time.  I called the class CSClay ( Community Supported Clay). Having a creative outlet can be huge in processing emotions during difficult times ( for children and adults alike). This class served as a good way to stay connected to students and offer inspiration and tutorials guiding them in engaging projects that were completed at home ( with a few porch pick up trips back and forth for firing). We focused on Spring theme projects including fairy doors, ceramic wind chimes, berry bowls, stepping stones and more. Here are a few photos of students working on their projects at home.
