I&#8217;ll be at Fairweather Gallery with my 100 handmade ceramic and porcelain turtles on Saturday, July 7 from 5-7pm. The exhibit continues through the month of July. I&#8217;ll be sharing the full story of the 100 Turtles project in my next blog post, and talking more about it at the opening reception. It will be a perfect day to head out the coast!<\/p>\n<p>I also have four plein air exhibits coming up this summer. I&#8217;ve been inspired to paint Oregon&#8217;s seasons en plein air, and it&#8217;s been so fun getting out and exploring the changing landscape with my watercolors. The project has included cherry blossoms at the Portland waterfront, red clover fields on country back roads, and surprise views of Mt. Hood on a hot, hazy day.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<div class=\"newsimg\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ejmillerfineart.com\/art\/needles-and-the-haystack-cannon-beach-617\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kauaiwatercolors.com\/watercolors\/lg_617Needles-and-the-Haystack,-Cannon-Beach-Emily-Miller.jpg\" alt=\"Needles and the Haystack, Cannon Beach painting, Oregon watercolor artwork, Oregon coast art by Emily Miller\"><\/a>&#8220;<em>Needles and the Haystack<\/em>&#8221; plein air watercolor &copy; 2017.<br \/>\nOne of five Oregon coast original watercolors I&#8217;m exhibiting in Seaside, thru June 30 2018.\n<\/div>\n<p><b>June 2 &#8211; 30 &mdash; Seaside, Oregon<\/b><br \/>\nFirst up is a series of Oregon coast watercolors on display for the Seaside Art Walk&#8217;s June theme, &#8220;Sense of Place.&#8221; Check it out starting Saturday, June 2 at <a href=\"https:\/\/fairweatherhouseandgallery.wordpress.com\/2018\/05\/30\/for-sense-of-place-artist-emily-miller\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fairweather Gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b>June 22 &#8211; August 3 &mdash; Lake Oswego, Oregon<\/b><br \/>\nNext, I&#8217;m participating in Lake Oswego&#8217;s &#8220;Chronicle: Plein Air&#8221; event.
