ARTIST SPOTLIGHT | Thea Robertshaw

Thea Robertshaw is a Dutch-born American artist and educator whose work transitions from traditional European realism into a symbolic, expressive language deeply rooted in shamanism, mythology, and the subconscious. Heavily influenced by the abstract animal forms of Franz Marc and the surrealism of Marc Chagall, she uses acrylics, oils, and pastels to explore sacred colors, nature elements, and archetypal dream imagery inspired by her practice as a shamanic healer.

Medium: Painting and drawing, including acrylic on canvas.

The art of hanging art 🖼️

500+ works. 1200+ feet of vineyard rows. Zero gallery walls.

So our installation crew is made of volunteers: carrying, hanging, adjusting, reconsidering, and occasionally stepping back to say, “a little to the left.”

By Saturday, the rows become the gallery.

Saturday Oct. 3, 2–9pm, 1241 Beeson Lane, Talent, Oregon.
