Two years of interviews, writing, thinking…and a lifetime of art making….all conjoined into one evening, one wonderful and interesting evening: Tulips everywhere in preparation for Henk’s arrival: But first: …and we’re off and running… …and a little bit of a family occasion for us with our son and his partner and two of my brothers […]

Living the Creative Life: Henk Pander
On Sunday I rode along when R took the galleys for the book up to Henk for “color correction”… I like going to Henk’s warm and textural house, filled with art and flowers (always still-life-worthy flowers)… But before they jumped into the manuscript we went out to the studio to see the paintings he has […]
…A Foggy Day…
Friday when Sharon and I took off for the Knight Library in Eugene it was sooo foggy… even the sun didn’t make a difference… We were heading to the Knight Library at U of O which houses the archive of drawings of landscape architects Elizabeth Lord and Edith Schryver. Sharon and I are curating a […]
Marge Riley
We heard this morning that Marge Riley has died…slipping away quietly after a long and productive life. Marge supported numerous Oregon artists and arts institutions, and in addition was a lively and interesting person. Collector, advocate, friend. A few years ago Marge donated a large part of her art collection to the Hallie Ford Museum […]

Well not goodbye really…his curatorial career continues…but goodbye to the classroom. As I stood in the back of the packed room I did reflect […]
Where I’ve Been lately…
In a word…”STUDIO.” My show opens May 7th, and today I found out they added a new wall to the gallery. As the first Artist in Residence it’s kind of a race to see how much work I can produce in the allotted time. Stay tuned for that. Those of you who know me know […]
Various…
Last night the Carl Hall Gallery at the Hallie Ford Museum reopened after being closed some months for a remodel of the space and a rehanging of the collection. Too much schmoozing on my part got in the way of photos, but if you are out and about, take a look. It’s very elegant and […]
