Jessie’s Oil Paintings – Spokane Gallery Show

by Jonni on March 3, 2010 · 6 comments

My daughter, Jessie Rasche, has been invited to present her work in a gallery in Spokane, beginning this Friday and continuing all through March. As you can imagine, the family is rather pumped up about it. I’ll let you tell you about it herself:

I am having my first art show in a gallery this Friday and I am really excited (and nervous!). I’ve shown at lots of little shops, but for some reason the move to a gallery feels like a really big deal.

My work can be seen at the gallery’s Facebook page, and comments are appreciated.

My work is in the impressionist style, where I attempt to capture the feeling and mood and light of a scene, but not many of the details. The press release described my work this way:

“Jessie Rasche is a talented, emerging artist with vigorous raw energy.  She works in the confines of small canvases with limited scope, which naturally entices the viewer into an intimate experience with each work.  Her enchanting, careful studies favor form and light to precise execution.  This show will also debut two larger pieces, both of which will explore character and color, feeling and weight. Preview the work and become a fan of our Facebook page, “Second Space Gallery”.”

Thanks again for all your support and encouragement!

If you just happen to live near Spokane, be sure to drop by for the opening this Friday, or anytime this month. And be sure to check out that web page and leave her a note – I know she’d love to read your comments about her paintings.

Congrats to Jessie on her show! I love her work. Such a sense of atmosphere, and place. And places you’d want to be. Very serene.

Spokane is a large city on the eastern edge of Washington State. It’s a beautiful area.
