“Falling in Deep” by Kimberley Vu won Best of Show in the Keizer Art Association’s annual Color Show.
The show spotlights a different color each year, and the 2025 event called for artworks with some element of green.
Among more than 65 entries, Vu’s winning piece was a mixed media work featuring ink, pastels and paint on paper.
In an introduction to her work on saatchiart.com, Vu said she has been exploring abstraction, expressionism and surrealism, and that “most of these works center around the idea of memories, a sense of place, and wonder.”
The association’s next exhibit is the Colored Pencil Show, with a reception set for 2 p.m. Saturday, April 5.
