Wine and chocolate equals a perfect
Valentine's Day event with loved ones
By Deni Porter
Are you looking for the perfect Valentine gift, but you
want to be certain that it is
exactly what will light up your
Valentine’s face?
The Artists’ Gallery in The
Village at Sunriver has the
perfect solution.
Invite your Valentine to the
gallery’s Second Saturday celebration from 4 to 6 p.m.
Saturday, Feb. 14.
Start your visit by loading
a plate of delicious chocolates
and selecting a glass of wine to
enjoy as you stroll around the
gallery enjoying the beautiful
art on display. When you see
your Valentine’s eyes light up,
you will know that you have a
good clue for your surprise gift.
Slip your credit card to one of
the helpful artists and make
a precious memory for your
Valentine.
February’s featured artists are
Perry Drevo and Lori Orlando.
Drevo is a loom weaver
whose beautiful scarves would
be a great gift idea.
Many things must come
together to produce a beautiful
accessory piece. Sure, technique
is critical, but color, texture and
pattern play a crucial role in the
finished product.
Drevo is a master at all these
details. The artist uses colors
that complement each other
beautifully, playing off each
other to make the whole piece
sing.
Another critical portion of
each piece is the way it gracefully lays on the wearer. No one
wants to fight with an ill-fitting
neck piece all day.
A beautifully made table run-
'Gone Camping' by Lori Orlando
ner or set of placemats can turn
a tablescape into something
special. A soft kitchen towel is
not only practical but makes a
style statement as well. The artist purchased her first loom in
2003 and has been producing
lovely woven pieces since.
A painter, Orlando’s love of
color and crisp lines is apparent
in her skills with multiple paint
media. She works with pastels,
colored pencils and oils. The
artist can enhance any subject
through use of color and its
relationship to light and shapes.
Her talent is obvious whether
she is painting a highly realistic
and detailed portrait or a composition of rowboats floating
in the water.
Orlando believes each of us is
blessed with unique talents. “It
is an honor for me to use mine
to create, inspire and promote
art,” she said.
Second Saturday is a wonderful time to “Party with the Artists.” It is a casual event. Skiing
and snow attire are welcome.
Visit for a few minutes or stay
awhile and learn more about
the beautiful and varied art displays. Oh, and don’t forget to
enjoy some wine and chocolate.
The Artists’ Gallery is in
building 19 in The Village at
Sunriver. The gallery is 10 a.m.
to 5 p.m. daily.
