The works of local artist Debbie Kercmar-Brookshier are on display at Plumas Arts Gallery.

Plumas Arts holds gallery reception this Friday

Plumas Arts is pleased to announce a gallery opening reception this Friday, Sept. 2 from 5 to 7 p.m. at 525 Main Street in Quincy.

Through September, the Plumas Arts Gallery will displaying art from local artist Debbie Kercmar-Brookshier. Debbie grew up surrounded by nature in the rolling hills of Southern California. The country beauty of her hometown and its native wildlife inspired the self-taught artist, who has always loved arts and crafts of all types. A passion—leading to a small independent business—in scrapbooking led to Debbie finding her talents in painting. Her talents grew from small tole painting projects in 2002 to another small independent business in 2004, painting faux projects and murals, bringing her creative vision into homes and businesses. This month we will be exhibiting a collection of paintings featuring animals of all sorts. She utilizes many mediums including, watercolor, acrylic, and oil.

Plumas Arts also coordinates the art display at Patti’s Thunder Café. For September through October, Patti’s Thunder Cafe is exhibiting a show by photographer Michael Beatley, whose “photographs of nature, landscape, wildlife, architecture and still life are designed to highlight the beauty of where we live, here in Plumas County. We are surrounded by abundant opportunities to capture with a camera the beauty of a portion of the northern Sierra Nevada mountain range.  The area is rich in history with stunning lakes, waterfalls, forests, meadows, wildlife and flowers. I hope some of my work has captured this beauty.”

The Plumas Arts Gallery and office hours are Wednesday thru Friday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
