Henk & Roger at PNCA
Roger “took it on the road” last night for his “last” (I doubt this…) lecture on Henk Pander, in Portland at PNCA.

An intrepid band of the general public met today at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art to watch a video made in 2002 about Henk Pander and the painting of his 1982 portrait of Governor Tom McCall, and then to take walk over to the State Capitol Building to look at the painting. We were […]

We joined a large crowd at the Oregon State Capitol building… to witness the unveiling of the new portrait of soon-to-be-former governor Ted Kulongoski by Portland artist Eduardo Fernandez (note the painting covered with a black cloth behind the podium) There many speeches, many thank-you’s, the […]
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 […]
