MOSES LAKE — Susan Walpole’s tiny landscape was awarded first place in the 10th annual Miniature Art Show, held at Umpqua Bank last week. The show is sponsored by the Desert Artists.

Leanne Hickman used a feather as her canvas for her view of distant mountains and took second place, also winning the People’s Choice award. Louise Peoples took third with her nighttime oil of a shooting star over a forest.

Paintings were oils, acrylics, watercolors, on canvas, wood and sometimes feathers. Artists painted landscapes, still life, animals, flowers. All works had one thing in common – the maximum size was 36 inches around the perimeter.

This is the show’s 10th year at Umpqua Bank, said organizer Judy Kalin-Ferguson. “Their hosting of our event is extremely appreciated by all.”
