Living up to her name, portrait painter Medora Nankervis has always loved life: color, nature, people, ideas and art. Leonard Breger, past professor of art at San Mateo College in Californina, said, "Medora, we enjoy the way you erupt through life!

A brilliant one-person show of Medora's paintings was exhibited at the Grants Pass Museum of Art, Grants Pass, Oregon, running from February 27 through March 30, 2007. Three-shows-in-one captured Medora's vision through time with two retrospective series, Shades of Hollywood and The Committee. The last of the triad was the vibrant Unexpected Love, 20 new paintings accomplished during 2006: which includes the above oil on canvas, Mystery in Mendocino. The Opening was celebrated on First Friday, March 2, 2007. Medora's Reception & Art Talk took place on March 23, 2007.
