Gearhart gallery holds reception for new artist Maps and journeys:
a writing workshop
GEARHART — During the first
Gearhart Art Walk of the year the
Trail’s End Art Gallery will fea-
ture Bill Logan, a new member
and quite an accomplished one
at that.
The show opening will hold
a reception in Logan’s honor 2
to 5 p.m. Saturday, March 3. In
addition to our featured artist will
be new paintings, photographs
and three-dimensional work by
other member artists. The gallery
is located at 656 A St., one block
south of Pacific Way.
Logan hails from Massillon,
Ohio, and now lives in Astoria.
In high school, he began painting
with oil on large plywood sheets.
His artwork took a hiatus while
he earned a living as a career
journeyman lineman. Now Logan
has returned to his passion of
painting.
He uses a graphic tablet to cre-
ate abstract drawings, combining
computer tools with his brushes.
He selects his colors and blends
them on the computer screen as
one would traditional materials.
“It is my hope that you receive as
much joy in viewing my work as
I do in creating it,” he said.
Trail’s End welcomes new-
comers to the art world as well as
seasoned ones. We have a judged
show every year and a new show
of member artists each month.
For more information, drop
by or call during winter hours
11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday
through Sunday. The number is
503-717-9458.

cartography hold a special
place in human imagina-
tion and history. Writers
write about journeys all the

known to humankind. Just
think “The Odyssey” and
Moses wandering in the
wilderness.
