New Mendocino College painting exhibit featuring Russian River landscapes opens Feb. 8

MENDOCINO Co., 2/5/22 — A new exhibit will open at Mendocino College on February 8, featuring landscape paintings of the Russian River by artist Richard McDaniel. McDaniel spent three years on the project, in which he “traversed the river’s 110-mile path, from its headwaters in the Laughlin Mountain Range north of Ukiah to its mouth at the Pacific Ocean in Sonoma County,” and subsequently authored a book, “the Russian River & Its Watershed.” The exhibit will contain 50 paintings that McDaniel created during this time, and will be open until March 18, 2022.
