Trails End Art Association 656 “A” Street 503-717-9458 trailsendart.org Trail’s End Art Association and Gallery will open a new show honoring Richard Newman, the association’s featured art- ist, along with many other association artists. Newman’s show “Photography in Black and White,” will include recent works printed on aluminum, canvas and pearlized metallic paper. A painting by Susan Thomas featured at A Great Gallery Newman grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and now lives in Beaverton and Gearhart, Oregon. As a kid, he always loved photographs in Life magazine. These pictures reached out from all parts of the world and showed both the beauty in landscapes and the reality of life. The person he admired most was Ansel Adams, who worked exclusively in black-and-white and took scenic photographs of the Western U.S. Newman likes to take pictures of landscapes, nature, sports and historical objects. “Photography is not a job for me; it is a passion for capturing memo- ries,” he said. Newman is the president of Trail’s Ends Art Association. His photograph of a DC3 on aluminum received fi rst place in the annual judged show in 2016. His photographs are hung in coff ee shops in Beaverton and Portland, and he has his own website: win- dow-to-the-world-photography.com. His photographs of the Bridge of Sighs and the Leaning Tower of Pisa in black and white were sold to ABC televi- sion and used on the TV show “Criminal Minds.” In addition, his photographs are also off ered on Etsy under the shop Newman48. The show will be open through the month of October, along with other members’ work. For more information about the art association, events and newsletter, visit trailsendart.org. New members are always welcome. The gallery is open 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.
