Linda Sorensen, Art Trails 2016
Hi all - Welcome to my October 5 through 30 solo exhibition at the gallery, including the Art Trails 2016 weekends of October 8-9 and 15-16.

I am a studio oil painter principally of landscapes -- coastal and rural Sonoma County and The Southwest and Northwest, occasionally Hawaii.  My approach blends California Impressionism and mid-Century Regionalism with a type of modernism exemplified by Iowa’s Grant Wood and Marvin Cone.

My process is not quick: pre-envisioning on site, high quality materials, a minimal pastel sketch on my canvas, and several layers of differing oil colors to enhance depth and liveliness. Plus Gamvar varnish so that my original colors are permanently presented and protected. 

I also see parallels in my style with certain contemporary Western artists whose stylized and dramatic landscapes are featured in Santa Fe and Scottsdale, some pretty "wild" by comparison. I greatly admire the styles of Maynard Dixon and also the Taos group of historic painters.

When I was a young person in the late Fifties into the early Seventies, I developed as an abstract expressionist, creating images from my imagination. This was back East and later in that center of expressionism, Berkeley, California.  For many years now I have specialized in expressive landscapes with a representational basis, using references from my photography but frequently altering compositions and combining points of view.

I emphasize the iconic.  I hope for "story." I am most pleased when I succeed in evoking the exhilarating vistas and moods of the natural world, and human story in that world.  In this 100-Year Celebration of our National Parks, those special places are my frequent focus of travel and painting. And as an animal lover it is not unusual for me to paint some critter, such as the ravens at the Grand Canyon.

It has been said, “All art is abstract.”  In my view there is an unchanged focus linking my landscapes back to my earlier abstracts and directing my choice of scenes. 
I was born in 1945 in Eureka, California, and lived in Chicago and Oak Lawn, Illinois, then Summit, New Jersey, and finally Elmhurst, Illinois, before the University of Wisconsin at Madison.  After college I moved to Berkeley in 1967, and then Bodega Bay in 2003.

I have been a San Francisco attorney, Boalt ’76, now consulting part-time from my home office.  I agree with the observation about me that I am an artist who happens to be an attorney, rather than vice versa.

Not that long from now the owner of the building where our gallery has been will establish his own gallery instead. So change is coming. Having a gallery studio that has allowed me to interact with the public on a regular basis, including with other artists, has been a great opportunity.  I am happy to share information such as the latest in varnishes or what paints I use, or to discuss historic art.  I have been privileged to share display space with deservedly famous artists of

the past, and with excellent local artists such as Jean Warren and Diane Perry.  I’m not sure what the next phase will be, but I’m looking forward to the adventure.

Art Trails is the annual county-wide "juried" open studios program sponsored by the Sebastopol Center for the Arts.  Many of you have met me because my artist studio has been the farthest back room of the gallery for the last few years since Gary Smith's framing moved out.  I look forward to seeing you and also new friends.

Art Trails rules require that no other inventory be shown except the participating artist, so my apologies in advance for any inconvenience, but if you would like to view particular other artworks on a visit here during October 5 through 30, it is best to make advance arrangements with Dan.  My "Moonrise Sunset, Monument Valley" is at Corrick's in Santa Rosa for that Art Trails exhibit, and my "Defiant (Crater Lake)" is on view at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts. Most of my paintings that will be available at the solo exhibit are displayed on my website (link below), and we try to keep it current by promptly deleting what has been sold.

Art Trails Cover

Once again, some of Sonoma County's finest artists have done dared to do battle with a blank canvas, watercolor paper, or all kinds of sculptural media. They poured in their talent, their inspirations, their frustrations ... all done to create, to express, to be about that magical moment when art is created.

Pictured here are works of art currently on exhibit at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts. This year, Art Trails includes nearly 200 Open Studios throughout the county.

Art Trails is a grand opportunity for the public to share in that creative moment. Throughout the county artists will host OPEN STUDIOS, welcoming the public into their studios, to view their artwork, observe a demo, have a gnosh and share a discussion with the artist about their artistic vision, their technique, and their deeply seated desire to create.

It is also your opportunity to make artists' creations your very own. Collect their art, let it speak to you in your creative space. Let that magical moment of their creation be part of your life, and an ongoing inspiration as you approach your own blank canvases, whatever they may be.

A bit about Art Trails from the collector's guide...
"Each participant has been juried into Art Trails. New artists apply by submitting an application, a description of their medium and processes, images of their work, and one original piece. A new jury is convened each year comprised of art experts and two rotating Art Trails members."

"Each studio will have a demonstration or display about the art process. Plan your studio visits with the aid of the Art Trails Collectors Guide using the maps on pages 28-31.

New Photos of Joshua Meador, taken
during a visit to his Mississippi hometown
Joshua Meador with paintings of Columbus, Mississippi
The two paintings shown show here by
Joshua Meador are of two Columbus, Mississippi
ante-bellum homes. The one he's holding
is of the Stockhard House and hangs in
Columbus' Lowndes Public Library

These photos came to us courtesy of Rufus Ward, resident historian and author of Columbus, Mississippi. They are from a 1950's Mississippi photo album.

proclaiming   "Joshua Meador Day"

On several occusions during the 1950's, Joshua Meador, his wife Libby and son Philip visited their home town, Columbus, Mississippi. Josh enjoyed these trips home, visiting friends and family. He also found time to paint, sometime choosing as his subject Columbus's wonderful ante-bellum homes.

The negatives for these photos were discovered recently by the daughter of a Columbus,

Lowndes Public Library Collection 
Columbus, Mississippi

Mississippi photographer who in turn gave them to Rufus Ward.

Rufus Ward is well known in Columbus as the resident historian. He is an author and writes a historical column for the Columbus, Mississippi, Dispatch. He is quite interested in Joshua Meador, one of Columbus' honored favorite sons along with playwright Tennessee Williams and radio sports broadcaster Red Barbour. Rufus' grandfather was a friend of Joshua Meador's father, and he gave Josh his first job, delivering newspapers when Josh was a high school student.

On October 16, 2009, Rufus Ward hosted the Meador family, Joshua Meador's

son Philip, his wife Hildur, Joshua Meador's grandson who is also named Joshua Meador, and Joshua Meador's great-grandson, Jayson. The occassion was Joshua Meador Day.

Rufus was thrilled to receive the negatives and immediately had photos printed. The painting Josh is holding now hangs in the Billups-Garth Achrives at the Columbus, Mississippi Public Library. It was a given to the library by Joshua Meador's widow, Libby Meador. The painting on the floor is of Rufus Ward's uncle's house, next door to where Rufus grew up.

Rufus' current enterprise is nominating Joshua Meador to be included in the Mississippi Hallof Fame, adminstered by the Mississippi Department Archives of History.

FINAL WEEKEND ... First and Foremost: The Paintings of Joshua Meador is at the gallery through October 2!

This exhibiiton includes 51 of Joshua Meador's paintings from the Meador Family Collection, four which once belonged to Walt Disney, and paintigns from our gallery collection.
