PORTLAND SERIES

22x28 Oil on Canvas painting of the Made In Oregon sign. A welcome home icon for Portlanders. Seeing this sign on my way back from the airport, always made me feel at home after a long trip away.

24x30, Oil on Canvas painting of the St. John's bridge, with a birch tree changing into it's fall attire. Two of my most favorite things, and colors.

18x24 Oil on canvas painting of the Voodoo Doughnut sign. I have strong college memories of this place, as do many Portlanders, and visitors alike.

My ongoing Portland series serves as a tribute to my fondest memories of growing up in this wonderful city. These beloved landmarks have reserved the warmest place in Portland hearts. They are a charming welcome home, and a comfort. Even as a kid, every time I left this city, and traveled back from the airport, I craned my neck from the back seat of our station wagon to catch a glimpse of the Made in Oregon sign welcoming us home.

The St. John's bridge, the intimidating, yet elegant behemoth, always impressed me en-route to our yearly Suavie Island pumpkin patch outing.

And in high school, Voodoo Doughnut felt like a warm, yet slightly rebellious comfort from my private school studies at St. Mary's, a short walk and street car ride from the school on 5th avenue. These landmarks, and many more among them, are indeed a part of why I love this charming city.
