Dutch resides in the Coos Bay, Oregon area and works from both studio and location to create his extraordinary watercolors. Typically his paintings demand many hours of time at the easel as well as hours of research. Working boats of the Northwest Coast, especially older tugs and fishing vessels, are his preferred subjects and Dutch is especially gifted in his ability to capture the character hidden in their fine details. Admirers of his paintings often comment that they find themselves irresistibly drawn into his work.

Everything that comes out of their studio is made by one of the Bendzunas family. All work is done from tanks of molten glass, using traditional techniques. Each piece demands hundreds of decisions during its creation. All of this is done while constantly moving and turning the piece on the end of a steel tube, called a "pipe".
Resulting in a series in which no two pieces are exactly alike.
Note: These are samples, each piece is unique.
