FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK: Anna Laxague @baskocreative. Anna comes from a long line of Basque craftspeople. She finds salvaged wood and other objects for her art, and, after she sands, oils, and cures each piece, she paints it to bring out the story she sees in its imperfections. She owns and operates The Four One in Parkdale, OR @thefouroneparkdale, and her work is also at The Old Trunk on the Dee Highway @theoldtrunkhr and Solera Brewery, also in Parkdale @solerabrewery. We hope that you’ll stop by Art On Oak, 210 Oak St., Hood River, OR, to see her remarkable pieces on exhibit here.

FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK: Anna Kai @annakaiart. Anna takes her inspiration from the mountains, ocean, rivers, and beaches of the Pacific Northwest for her large abstracted snow and waterscapes.
