Well we headed to Portland for Father’s Day festivities…
Which started with looking at art, of course. I’m a fan of David Selleck who had a show at Blackfish Gallery
R took a look at Steve Tilden’s small sculptures…
I liked this one…(sort of like a tiny Marie Watt)
The neighborhood is unrecognizable for those of us who navigate by landmarks…this building across the way was coming down that very day…
and as we went down the block to PDX we saw this thing which has sprung up in the last few months…
yikes. But we did manage to get into PDX Gallery where we saw the wonderful show of Joe Rudko‘s work “Album”…go…the work is just nice, beautiful, lively, funny, original.
time for coffee…
and on..with the festivities of the next day including presents and good food and a pool party!
and of course thoughts of Dads…and grandfathers
On The Way 
Beautiful, especially the last image!

Love Joes paintings. Lovely family photos! Now to go find me some coffee for your cup sent my taste buds squealing.😊
Such a sweet, multi faceted post. Howard and I stopped in on Friday and saw Joe Rudko’s show – loved it! I’ve been working on a project involving black and white photos so I was particularly inspired by his use of edges and fragments of old photos.
Love the Joe Rudko work. Will try and see more of it in Seattle at the Art Fair in August.
Nice to see Pop and that photo of Piatt is a hoot!
Happy F-Day.
