"The Bench" is along a trail in Nepal during the monsoon season when light is rather flat and muggy. The bench sits under two trees, the male and female trees, planted intentionally to give the traveler a shaded place to pause: to remember "it's the journey, not the destination." Painting this watercolor was a way for me to honor that person who planted the trees and for the person who provided the bench and left the pile of wood that fuels my memory. The bamboo, a renewable resource, is a reminder to daily keep vigilance and remember to leave a light footprint. And then there are the exposed roots and the implication of buried ones that remind me to pay attention to the simplicity of the lifestyle that supports and created the bench. Glen Corbett -- January 2008

About Glen Corbett: Glen, an award
winning painter, tapestry weaver and print maker makes Central Oregon her home.
She has participated in numerous one woman and group shows in the Northwest and
beyond including the Oregon Capital, Maude Kerns Art Center, Honolulu Academy of
Art, Ithaca Museum and several Fine Art Galleries on the West Coast. Glen’s work
is found in private and corporate collections worldwide including AJ Heinz,
State of Hawaii, Walsh, Walsh, & Foster, Washington Mutual Savings Bank, Black
Butte Ranch, Brooks Resources, Fred Meyer Inc. and many more. "Art captures a
very present moment, sometimes evocative of the past or predictive of the future
– but at best taps a timeless core/chord." In her “spare time” she tends the
forest service lands around Sisters, Oregon while enjoying the solitude atop
Black Butte as a seasonal Fire Lookout. High Desert Gallery is honored to
represent Glen Corbett exclusively in Central Oregon.
