Portland Art Museum

A bunch of new exhibits had opened since the last time I was here, so I ran around at first, trying to get a glimpse of them all.  And then figured that I'd better sit down and sketch something, and did the tea house set up in the entrance of the exhibit of Japanese art and calligraphy.

Then upstairs, to see the exhibit on modern realism.  And decided that 'realism' is a relative word.  All of the works were representative, but none of them pretended to be photo-realistic.  I just had time for a quickie of one of the sculptures before meeting for the throw-down.
