| Scio artist’s new exhibit combines visual spectacle
Rebecca Waterhouse likes to paint women who are outstanding in their fields.In Alice Fairfield’s case, it’s a strawberry field. Waterhouse’s oil Oil painting on canvas captures her in a reflective moment, overseeing the lushly growing rows of Fairfield Farm in Corvallis. Her back is straight, her gaze farseeing — a rare moment of stillness in a busy farmer’s life.Waterhouse, 22, of Scio has worked to capture those moments in “Ladies in the Field,” an exhibit of local women in agriculture on display through May at Marks Ridge Winery just outside Sweet Home. The winery is open from noon to 5 p.m. daily, although owners Janet and Jay Westly encourage weekday visitors to call ahead of time.Growing up in Scio, Waterhouse came to know many nearby farmers Oil painting and to appreciate their contributions, both to the food supply and to the mid-valley economy.“Local farmers are great, but I know all these women farmers, and I haven’t seen them get a lot of press,” she said. “What I especially enjoy about this project is I feel like I’m getting across a message in my own way. I may not be a lawyer or a farmer myself, but this is one way I can help the local food movement.”Waterhouse’s family has always steeped itself in the arts. As a little girl, Waterhouse was active in Scio’s twice-yearly collection of skits and songs known as the Sheepskin Revue. She plays the fiddle and piano and performed in a 2004 production of “Charley’s Aunt” at Albany Civic Theater.Throughout the years, she has always drawn and painted. She took painting lessons from local artists Winnie Bailey and Paul Toews, and enrolled in Jefferson High School rather than Scio because Jefferson had an art program.She spent her senior year studying abroad in Belgium, graduated in 2006 and then majored in art and French at Mills College, a women’s school in Oakland, Calif. She graduated last spring and had shows earlier this year at Albany City Hall and at Linn-Benton Community College. The Marks Ridge show features several familiar faces, including Tommie van de Kamp Oil painting of Queener Fruit Farm near Stayton, with a jug of apple cider vinegar; Jan Neilson of Fraga Farm in Sweet Home,Google推广, holding some of her signature cheeses; and Lisa Hubbe and her sister, Nancy, milking cows at Sweetwell Farm in Scio.“I just love the character that she captured of each individual woman,” said Marks Ridge co-owner Janet Westly. “And I do know some of them. That’s what’s fun in particular.”Waterhouse hopes viewers will take home a message as well as a memory.
