I was raised in Marin County, CA., several blocks from San Francisco Bay. This is where my interest in boating and nature began. My Artist parents and teachers encouraged me to draw. The art dept at San Rafael High School was inspirational. I continued studying at CSU Biography Chico where I was encouraged by renowned printmaker, Janet Turner. In 1975, when I was 21, I drove the Alaska Highway with a friend. We traveled to Fairbanks, and then I went alone to Denali Park where I had my first real wilderness experience. That Summer I ended up on the Homer Spit where I met my future husband. He was building a log cabin in isolated Sadie Cove. Eventually we married and had a son. The three of us spent 17 summers commercial salmon fishing off a remote beach in Bristol Bay, Alaska. Living and fishing in the s8lderness changed my life. The isolation, storms, tides, bears, and the cyclical nature of the sockeye salmon run was both exciting and inspirational. I completed several art courses at the University of Alaska before moving to Portland, OR in 1987. Finished my BA in Art at Marylhurst University in 1994, studying printmaking with Dennis Cunningham. I now have my own studio where I draw, print and operate a picture framing business. Because I have been fortunate to live in such beautiful places I have been compelled to make landscapes. These images are meant to be visual reminders that document a particular time and place. Creating a detailed and layered space helps me to convey a personal impression. The tree silhouettes evoke emotion and the abstract geometry of nature. Even though I make some color monotypes and drawings my first love is black and white blockprinting. The challenge of creating color values with black and white, and the dramatic quality that results, helps me describe the power and beauty of nature. - See folder for chronological bio.

Carol Grigg grew up in Lake Oswego. She began in the 1980’s following a divorce. Her work attracted the attention of friend and gallery Artist owner Jackie Gango. Grigg’s style was simple with sophisticated colors (predominantly grays and greens) that Gango thought would Biography appeal to Northwesterners. Gango published as posters Grigg’s depiction of Native America horseback riders, dancers and animals. These brought Grigg financial success and national recognition for a self-taught artist. She is one of the top-selling poster artists in the country, and her work appears in private collections around the world. ------Carol Grigg's poetry, music, writing, philosophy, sculpting, potting, and painting reflect the essence of her very special being. She is a whole person, consistent, confident and truly devoted to her beliefs. She believes in the land and preserving the environment we have left, the animals and preserving what species we have left, the unity of nature and the simplicity of the relationship between man, earth, and best. Carol's Oregon childhood inspired her strong feelings for the environment and her coming of age in the 60's gave her courage to become involved, contribute and use her talents and means to make a difference. Contributing her talent to many causes over the years, Carol has championed the Native American, recognizing their kinship with the land. She has drawn on the art of early Eastern cultures, of primitive cultures and prehistoric man when art reflected a more profound relationship between man, earth, and beast. The cave paintings of animals such as those found in Lascaux, France have been an influence as well as the animals, especially horses, that she has owned and nurtured. Ageless in itself, her work is culmination of artistic genius, innate talent, and the warmth created by her beliefs that flow naturally into her work. Carol is world renowned.

Remarks - Mr. Hall comments, "All we ask is that we cope with life and attempt to wrestle from it some understanding in a shape we can caress. Works of art are evidence of the experience, the point of silence where meaning, beauty, and human emotions of varied forms commingle to form the work of art, no matter its shape of content. It is not style, fashion, skill or idea that marks the meaningful work of art, but the degree of possession of craft and self, make the silence sing in this vast expanse of space and time." Carl Hall studied all the abandoned Indian sites he could find in the Northwest. This painting reflects his interest in Indian motifs.

Location Westlake Park - east side of park

Hunt’s work nearly always involves the human figure. Hunt is interested in the way human forms make a composition and in the way Artist individuals make a community. The group of sculptures at Westlake Park are named "The Goal" to refer not just to the structure of the Biography game of soccer that measures points in goals but also to the goal of participation in sports, which is inclusion. The grouping involves two soccer players in action and their ball. Some feet away a smaller child, who observes, moves his arms as if to direct the action.

In a larger sense, Hunt feels that we are all participants in the dramatic undertaking of living in community with other humans. She also has an interest in how humans compose themselves in nature, the support and rejection of our belonging to nature.

Remarks - Plaque: 2001 People's Choice - The Sunbathers is the culmination of Patecky’s many years of working with concrete as a sculpture medium. Sunbathers can be described as a sculpture that is figurative and stylized. In the lexion of art this means that the sculpture is a depiction in the figure. Patecky feels that appearance of a sculpture should reflect the character of the material that it is made from. - Sunbathers is one of many of Patecky’s mother and child compositions. It is an eternal theme and one that all people can relate to.

Remarks In these two works, the computer serves two important functions in the process of design. First, it is complex, quick and increases artistic productivity. Second, it allows the composition to be studied and developed and projected into perspective space. These multiple images are products, as the artist says, "of a new aesthetic, a new vision of the world, by the direct use of the digital nature of the medium. Rather than trying to disguise pixels, they have become the central element of my artmaking."

It is interesting to me how the question is posed, "how old are these boulders?" They have been here a lot longer than Lake Oswego has. They are old, yet the trees are young. With the lime kiln nearby, I wonder if this was more of an industrial area, even though now I can hear the traffic noise of the bridge overhead in an increasingly urbanized area. And now this spot becomes an area of nature hiding within the city.

Remarks - For many years this artist experienced the rising mists and sunlit sails of early morning harbors. He has used a blend of three color washes. His other techniques include producing reflections by scratching and lifting color with a damp-dry brush to heighten the abstract impression and achieve a mysterious and softened effect. Mr. Woltjes comments: "Nothing fires my imagination like the beauty of our natural environment with a range of color and light that gives me limitless subject matter. I’m always searching for new and exciting ways to paint, and when one challenge has been met, I immediately accept another. This is the chemistry of motivation, the engine of creativity."

He taught watercolor at Portland Community College for eight years and conducts workshops throughout the Northwest. Mr. Woltjes is a member of the Watercolor Society of Oregon and the Buffalo Grass Society. His vocational interests are woodworking, backpacking, tennis, canoeing and photography. These experiences have had a direct effect on his painting. Woltjes serves as a consultant to the Permanent Art Collection Subcommittee, and has often repaired pieces in the collection and constructed pedestals as needed.

When I was five, my father sold a doll house he had made because I didn’t play with it enough. My dad was always making things. I enjoy working with tools from sanders and electric saws to the wood chisels he left. Maybe the small scale is an attempt to recapture the doll house, and maybe it’s because miniature things are naturally appealing."
