2024 Washougal Art & Music Festival Poster

The Washougal Art and Music Festival is thrilled to announce that Sandy Moore's captivating artwork, "Sail Boats," has been selected as the centerpiece for its 2024 festival poster.

"Sail Boats" captures the essence of the area's natural beauty and maritime spirit. Inspired by Cottonwood Beach and the majestic Columbia River, Moore's mixed media fabric collage technique breathes life into the serene scene of sailboats gently gliding across the water. With a palette of blues and greens meticulously layered and textured, the artwork evokes a sense of tranquility and appreciation for the picturesque landscapes that surround Washougal.

Reflecting on her inspiration, Sandy Moore remarked, "We are lucky to be surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the country. I love the water and living near the Columbia is a joy. This piece is inspired by Cottonwood Beach, a favorite destination."
