Yaquina Art Gallery Spotlight Features Photography of Linda Radcliff and Barbara Irvine From April 28 – May 12, 2023

YAA Spotlight

Linda Radcliff’s photography will be featured for a two week show at Yaquina Art Association Gallery. She has been an active member of YAA for over 15 years. Her work is colorful and vivid. She offers larger canvas prints and greeting cards. Radcliff will be in the gallery frequently during her show and you can see how much fun she draws from her work.

Linda grew up in central California and she and her husband Jim followed their kids to the Oregon coast. They now live full time in Newport. 

Barbara Irvine was a professional scientific illustrator whose curiosity turned to more visual art pursuits throughout her life. YAA is featuring her gifted photography. She said, “I see nature as art.” From that perspective Irvine found amazing subjects others would easily overlook. She also found seascapes. Either way, she said half of her work was unaltered and the rest turned into what she called Mind Imagery where she combined photographs for something new. You will find great depth in her work shown.

Barbara Irvine (1942-2021) last resided in Eugene, OR with her husband Blair. A wealth of her work and supplies were donated to YAA for many more projects. YAA was honored to receive her completed work and our members are actively using her gifted art supplies. Your purchases will support YAA activities.

The Yaquina Art Association Gallery is located in Nye Beach at 789 NW Beach Drive. Hours of operation are 11 am to 4 pm every day. Interested in becoming a member of the Yaquina Art Association?
