Christine Harrison's work @
Tillamook County Pioneer Museum
The prints in this show were started during the COVID-19 stay at home order. I took my first Zoom class with a fabric artist in Glasgow, Scotland in late March. I learned the eco dye printing method for fabric and paper. I not surprisingly, found I preferred the prints on paper. It was a prefect medium to use during this time, as I could take my morning dog walk and bring plenty of fresh leaves and dye materials home to work with. I like starting from the dye prints and adding traditional monotype printing to enhance the prints.

Second Street Gallery and Annex Closes
As residents and visitors walk or drive on Third Street in Tillamook, they may have noticed the windows at 1906 becoming empty of local artists’ work in the last few weeks. The sandwich board declaring the gallery open has been off the sidewalk since March.
During this time of social distancing and small business restrictions, Art Accelerated has complied with government recommendations for the safety of its patrons and volunteers by closing its doors to customers and those seeking instruction. With revenue from classes and sales in decline because of the COVID-19 safety measures and no foreseeable opening in sight, the board of directors decided to stop spending money on rent and has closed the gallery and annex space.
The non-profit organization will continue, however, to provide art events and classes in the future.
