    Two of a Kind at Froelick Gallery

They were pairing up 17 painters with 17 photographers, asking them to create a portrait of one another. The resulting show is titled Two of a Kind.

    Douglas Lynch

    Did you know that Portland, Oregon, has an official flag? Do you know who designed it? I didn’t until now. The answer is: Douglas Lynch. You may have seen his work around. He was commissioned, in the 1930s, to create mural panels for the Works Project Administration (WPA) at Timberline Lodge. Some of his work is incorporated into Lynda Wysong’s…
