CREEK AND STONE
Contributed by Alaskan Artist Brenda Jaeger
Seattle Convention Center Welcomes the Northwest Watercolor Society Back for Signature Exhibition Including Alaskan Artist Brenda Jaeger. Show runs in the Arch Building January 23-July 15, 2025
Brenda Jaeger is showing “Creek and Stone”, in the NWWS Signature Exhibition. “Creek and Stone” is a watercolor painted en plein air and finished in Brenda’s studio in Anchorage. This watercolor depicts Thorne Bay, Alaska, where Brenda taught an Artist-in-Education Residency. Brenda worked outdoors, sitting on a tarp, enjoying depicting the river and stones in Thorne Bay. Surrounded by rainforest, Brenda painted the shapes of the boulders on the creek that ran through the community.
Alaska-born and raised, Brenda spent part of her First Grade in Palmer and lives in Anchorage the last 28 years. She now comes frequently to create studies and paintings of Palmer and the Matsu Valley.
Recently, Brenda showed her work in a solo exhibition at Jens’ Bistro through the Georgia Blue Gallery in Anchorage from May-September 2024. In the month of October 2024, she had another solo show through the Georgia Blue Gallery at the Snow City Café. Her work can be seen at the Georgia Blue Gallery in Anchorage, and Parsons Guitars in Independence, Kansas. Brenda is listed in Who’s Who in American Art.
