Our Excellent Art Harvest Studio Tour Adventure: Chris Stubbs

Chris Stubbs studio

It was a beautiful sunny morning.  The winding road past mansions and vineyards on the was up to Chris Stubbs house is a wonderful part of Yamhill County.  Her studio is at one end of a large house.  Stepping across a landscaped water way make you feel as if you are stepping into an enchanted place.  Well yes you are.  Lining the walls of her studio are her sensitive water color paintings.  When one of her portraits looks out at you, there is the feeling that it is not only you who is being looked at.


The flowers, the lily, the iris, the daffodils all float with color and calm.

Our Excellent Art Harvest Studio Tour Adventure: Brad Speer

Brad Speer at his pottery.

I'm a potter and clay worker so going to see Brad Speer at his new studio is a special treat.  It is clear that Brad works with his hands, with his mind, and with his heart when he is crafting his utilitarian pottery.  He is developing mastery of all levels of the art.

His work is made to be used and to become part of your every day life.  The elegance of one of his cups or bowls is a pleasure to hold.  It in riches a person's morning even before that first sip of coffee.
