The inspirational character of the landscape found in the
Brownsville area has beckoned many an artist. A clear river
running with salmon, tree-covered mountains, and a breathtaking
valley view, all act as muse to the painters, potters, sculptors
and other artists.
Many are members of Oregon
Crafted, a four-county arts trail. Those members open their studios the first full weekend of each month. Below are some of the local artists and samples of their work.
