Eugenia Talbott's expertise includes portraits of people and animals—pets, wildlife, and especially images of horses. Ms. Talbott welcomes commissions: she would love to paint a portrait from your own photographs or live sitting—be it human, canine, feline or equine. Visit her website for more examples of her work; be sure to see the beautiful and intriguing images in the African Art section, hand painted room divider screens, and recycled/hand painted furniture.

"I feel such a wonderful sense of enjoyment and peace when I paint. I hope when viewers see my paintings they will come away with similar feelings of peace, as if they were actually there at the ocean or the mountains with me." Billye paints in southern Oregon during spring and summer, spending her winters south of the border in Baja California. Her travels provide a diverse wealth of subjects and opportunities to paint en plein air.

Anderst uses her illustrative style to form fictional but plausible unions of biological and man-made structures on canvas. She spent her childhood poring over her father's anatomy, developing an intense passion for botany, neurology, entomology, evolution and oil paints. She received art education at Southern Oregon Art Academy, Gage Academy in Seattle and in 2010 melded her scientific and art interests with a certificate in Natural Science Illustration at the University of Washington.

Expressive, impressionistic and colorful, Dianne's work was awarded First Place at Expressions West 2010, a juried exhibit of artists from the Western US, at the Coos Art  Museum in Coos Bay, OR.

Raised in South Central Alaska, Livvy came to know her craft through an intimate familiarity with her natural surroundings. A member of New York’s prestigious Society of Animal Artists, in 1998 she was chosen as one of six American “wildlife painters to watch” by InformArt magazine and won an Award of Merit in the Grand National Celebration of Western Art in San Francisco. She appears in the book, Strokes of Genius - The Best of Drawing.

My paintings tend to revolve around the motion of animal life, horses running, fish swimming, buffalo strolling, and funny birds and bears. My passion shifts from day to day so I never know just what I'll end up with on the canvas. I've just embarked on a new adventure, having taken over a thriving gallery in Ojai, California, representing 10 accomplished artists. Naturally I'll continue to paint new works...just inside the front door of the Trowbridge Gallery, and to stay in touch with my friends and collectors in Oregon.

Artist Mae Wygant creates from her studio in historic Jacksonville. Profoundly inspired by Nature, her fertile imagination and mastery of style, medium and technique have produced a substantial catalog of work from very literate to full modern abstract, a style she focuses upon now.
