Abstracts

"Reaching Out" 3'x3' image for the Trainers Club in Lake Owego in the Lake Place shopping center across from the Lakewood Center.

"City Center" is one of the favorites at the Club. All of the abstracts in the Trainers Club series had to be non representational, contain some black gouache, and some copper acrylic. Copper is one of the themes in the furnishings, and art work throughout the club. The work was done on 140 lb Arches watercolor paper and floated on the matting.
