This is a self-guided public tour of local artist studios in Marion and Polk Counties. The tour is Saturday and Sunday, September 13-14, from 10:00 am-4:00 pm.\u00a0 More information is available about the tour on the <a title=\"Willamette Valley Open Studio Tour\" href=\"http:\/\/wvost.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">website<\/a>.\u00a0 There are 19 artist studios on the tour and the cost is only $5 for both days and all the studios. Tickets can be purchased at the Art Department, Bush Barn, and from all tour artists.<\/p>\n<p>I participated in this event in both 2011 and 2012, both times when I was in my previous studio. For this event, you&#8217;ll have the opportunity to see my upstairs painting studio, my basement assemblage studio, and you&#8217;ll have the opportunity to buy art. I&#8217;ll have old as well as new oil and cold wax paintings, Funky Junkyard Birds, greetings cards, prints, reproductions of Fearless Faces, and dozens of new Curious Elements.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1644\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1644\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Spotted-With-Crimson.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1644\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Spotted-With-Crimson-300x245.jpg\" alt=\"Limited edition giclee prints of this original oil and cold wax painting, &quot;Spotted With Crimson,&quot; will be available for the first time. \" width=\"300\" height=\"245\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1644\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Limited edition giclee prints of this original oil and cold wax painting, &#8220;Spotted With Crimson,&#8221; will be available for the first time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Cruiciform-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1648 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Cruiciform-1-221x300.jpg\" alt=\"Cruiciform #1\" width=\"221\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Viewpoint-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1647 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Viewpoint-1-300x221.jpg\" alt=\"Viewpoint #1\" width=\"300\" height=\"221\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/photo-32.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1591 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/photo-32-288x300.jpg\" alt=\"photo 3\" width=\"288\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Funky-Junkyard-Birds-Repurposed-materials-by-Dayna-J.-Collins.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1539 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daynajcollins.com\/curele\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/Funky-Junkyard-Birds-Repurposed-materials-by-Dayna-J.-Collins-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Funky Junkyard Birds - Repurposed materials by Dayna J.
