Welcome to this issue of the quarterly, celebrating visual
artists and the community they define. As residents, we revel in
Oregon’s geographic diversity as well as the varied ethnicity of our 
population. The art that is produced in our community reflects that
same spectrum. Our art is not corralled into a single Eurocentric,
academic precept, limited by axioms from other times. Rather, our art
is open, inclusive, as innovative as it is disciplined.

quarterly is intended to increase the visibility of our local visual
artists. Artists are often reclusive by nature. Their muse speaks
privately. So they remove themselves from the hubbub of the marketplace
in order to create, not to promote. While performance artists look for
a stage, visual artists are more inclined to look for a cave with
northern exposure. Moreover the visual artist will hang up a sign that
says: “nobody home.”

quarterly is to serve these artists.  They are our living treasures,
our scribes, our oracles, our enlight-ening fools who, knowingly or
not, challenge the way we see things. In their pursuit of art, they
enrich the quality of our life in Oregon. This, then, is their picture
book, a folio, as well as a forum for their industry. We are blessed
with a bounty of gifted, world-class artists, more than our local
market can support.

quarterly may help nurture their appreciation as well as engender the
growth of a larger market to sustain them. It has been proven that art
puts communities on the map.

quarterly advertisers will be the real heroes. They will be paying for
the ink and the paper, as well as all that elegant empty space. These
advertisers must believe that the husbandry of art is a community
responsibility.  I thank my editors, and guest writers Laurel Fisher,
John Rose, Dottie Chase, Judith Roberts and Art Maddox and Jerry Ross. 
Thank you  J Thibeau for the nam. And thank you most of all, Connie
Clark in Tryon, North Carolina, for putting it all into a proper form. 
Cheers
