Our thanks go to all the dedicated artists who generously contribute their creative talent and valuable time in support of our Hospital. Auctioning art successfully at Winesong! is a reflection of Mendocino’s vibrant art scene. Most of the artists at Winesong! show in the many fine art galleries throughout the Mendocino Coast. We welcome you to visit all the Winesong Artists through the links on our website.
This year marks the 3nd annual Winesong! Artists’ Showcase, held each year in the weeks prior to Winesong! at the OddFellows Hall in Mendocino. The public is invited to see the incredible collection of art donated to the Hospital Foundation charity auctions as well as other artwork by participating artists. It will be possible to submit bids on the auction pieces without attending the event by entering a closed bid at the Showcase or on-line. Many of the artists will be sitting the Showcase and you may also meet them at a reception in August (date to be announced).

2008 Artist of the Year

David Jonason |
Architectural Artist David Jonason combines his love of architecture and design with a keen artistic talent to create evocative paintings that transcend the angles and shapes of his subject buildings.
Jonason’s innovative style – which he describes as ‘Cubism Lite’ – employs slashes of light and color to emphasize the architectural designs, while integrating elements of both cubism and Realism into clean lines, strong forms and bold uses of color.
Time and again, Jonason turns his talents to celebrating a diverse selection of architectural landmarks. But while his artistic style is to gently break up the space, Jonason ensures that these iconic building remain recognizable. The results represent not only a unique aesthetic achievement, but a tribute to outstanding architecture and the need for landmark preservation. Jonason is currently working on a show featuring New Mexico's churches, which will open in Santa Fe in the fall.
A native of Los Angeles who now lives in Mendocino, Jonason was inspired as a child by memories of the fantastic buildings of an earlier era. As he says, “Buildings make a place what it is. I find that many times it is architecture that ties our memories to specific locations and experiences.”
"I'm not an architect. I am a painter who likes architecture. This is something I love and I believe you should paint what you love," Jonason said. |
