We spent last weekend in Portland and attended the opening reception for "Simply Red", the group exhibit I'm included in at the new Mark Woolley Gallery downtown (see my April 18th post). It was a fun party! Here's a little video to give you a sense of the evening's energy:

The show will be up for two months--if you're in Portland, pay a visit. It's downtown on the 3rd floor of the Pioneer Place mall--the Atrium building--700 SW 5th. There will be a second reception on May 19th, 5-9 PM.

Email for purchase info

This painting will be in a group exhibition opening this weekend called "Simply Red (2)", celebrating the grand opening of the new Mark Woolley Gallery in Portland, Oregon. The gallery is on the 3rd floor of Pioneer Place, 700 SW 5th Avenue. I'll be at the opening on Saturday, April 21st, 5-9 PM--hope to see you there. Sounds like it will be quite a party...Mark says, wear RED!

The painting is part of an ongoing series of works I've been doing off and on for over 25 years, inspired by the human and animal motion studies of 19th century photographer Eadweard Muybridge.
