Sneak Preview - Two new Fine Art Giclee Prints by Kathy Deggendorfer

Yes it's just a tease. A sneak preview
for the avid Deggendorfer collector! You can look but you can't
touch, smell or even buy!  For all you collectors (and first time
buyers) – You will need to wait until Friday, October 30, 2009 for
the official release. Plan on checking online, subscribe to our
newsletter
or better yet visit High Desert Gallery in Sisters Oregon
to view and purchase one or both of Kathy's new prints. On October
30th the two new prints and stellar custom framing options
will be available from High Desert Frameworks! and previewed in our
Sisters Oregon fine art gallery.

If you can't get to Sisters on October
30th and want to get on the waiting list please call High
Desert Gallery's Bend Oregon art gallery and chat with Kim our
Gallery Manager and she can take your information and ensure we have
you signed up for one or more prints. Call Kim at 541-388-8964 or

About Kathy Deggendorfer: Kathy
Deggendorfer lives on a cattle and hay ranch just outside of Sisters,
Oregon. Inspired by the color, pattern and texture of her
surroundings, she creates vibrant and colorful watercolor paintings.
Whimsical images of flowers and ranch life fill the paintings with
color and life. "Folks tell me they just feel happy when they
look at my work-- that makes me happy." Raised in Portland,
Oregon, in a clothing manufacturing family, she says ,"Sewing
skills skipped a generation with me... but I love fabric. I like to
call my creations 'Painters Quilts.' I can prowl around the rounders
full of prints at the Stitchin' Post with the best of 'em... I just
put my fabrics in with a paintbrush." Kathy's collaborative work
with master quilter, Tonye Belinda Phillips, is another fun
combination of painted image and textile interpretation. Kathy is
currently working on a project about Oregon Specialty Farming and
sustainable farm practices. This project takes her out into the
fields of Oregon farms to paint and learn about what makes Oregon
agricultural practices and people unique. Trips to the cattle ranches
of Eastern Oregon and vineyards of the Willamette Valley provide her
with plenty of rich and colorful images. Kathy's work is collected
throughout the Pacific Northwest and reaches out to all corners of
the United States. Kathy was selected to create the official Oregon
2008 ornament for the White House Christmas Tree. Represented by High
Desert Gallery of Central Oregon, she has pieces in the permanent
collection at Redmond Airport, 2007 Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show Poster
Artist, she wrote and illustrated a children's book for St. Charles
Medical Center, and her work has been translated into clothing and
fabric for Columbia Sportswear. In 2005, Kathy was awarded 'Citizen
of the Year' in Sisters Oregon for her contributions to the community
and the arts. High Desert Gallery & Custom Framing of Central
Oregon is honored to represent Kathy Deggendorfer exclusively in
Central Oregon.
