As the summer season unfolds, Sunriver Resort welcomes a striking new exhibit from the High Desert Art League, a collective of Central Oregon artists celebrating 25 years of creative connection. Presented in the Betty Gray Gallery, the exhibition features paintings, prints, and photographs that reflect the textures, tones, and rhythms of the Northwest landscape. From vivid wildlife portraits to abstract interpretations of volcanic rock and sky, each piece channels the beauty and spirit of Central Oregon through a distinctly regional lens.

On view now through June, the exhibit highlights a diverse range of works in oil, watercolor, pastel, photography, printmaking, and encaustic. Each piece offers a fresh perspective on the region’s iconic landscapes, from ancient rock formations and high desert flora to winding rivers and native wildlife. Standout works include River Reflections by Janet Frost, Winter Thaw by Helen Brown, Foxy’s Gang by Vivian C. Olsen, and Bison With Babe by Joren Traveller—each reflecting the layered stories of the Northwest.

What began as a small circle of artists seeking critique and connection has grown into a dynamic, decades-strong collective with a shared mission: to support and elevate the arts in Central Oregon. Today, members of the High Desert Art League exhibit throughout the Northwest and continue to inspire through both their individual practices and collaborative exhibitions.
