Portraits by Gwenn Seemel

I was in Portland, Oregon some months ago for a NATOA meeting. I wandered the streets, marvelling at how Portland had changed so much faster than I did in the years between my Corvallis, Oregon, High School days and today. I stumbled across a show of Gwenn Seemel's portraits. I was floored, gasping for air. Gwenn just sent me a notice of her newest show in Eugene. The picture on the left is a sample, but check out her other work here.

Her corpus of portraits is here. Maybe it's just me, and what do I know, but I think she's one of the giant artists of our time.
