Colleen Goodwin Chronister - Oil Paintings; Angela Palmer - Designer Purses
 Colleen Goodwin Chronister, of Keizer, Oregon, is a passionate painter who shows a meticulous attention to detail. Her style is contemporary realism and her exquisite oil paintings reflect a rich color palette. Her paintings seem to transcend the ordinary and have a distinctive magical quality which characterizes her work. Colleen’s paintings have won many prestigious awards in juried shows throughout the country, including over a dozen Best of Show awards.
In the Gallery One Display Case Angela Palmer's exhibit of one-of-a-kind Designer purses continues through February.
Gallery Five - Siuslaw Viewfinders Camera Club Members
  Continuing in Gallery Five are the members of the Florence Viewfinders showing their photographic expertise in a show entitled Oregon: The Place We Call Home.
This show is dedicated to the memory of John Bevans, master photographer and a wonderful husband and friend.  He grew up in the dry John Day country, traveled the world and came home to the Oregon Coast. His image of the North Jetty dive dock is a special feature of the show. (see image below)
The Viewfinders Camera Club is a varied group of people who share a passion for photography. Some have spent all their lives in the Northwest, others arrived here after long journeys. They all stay because they love the people and the land itself.
